Reading reviews for different small engines and the amount of women complaining that there was oil on the outside of the engine when it arrived is infuriating. They leave a 1 star review.

...it has to ship with oil

...it has to have a crankcase vent

...engines will leak oil through these vents


"Item arrived wet with oil! Horrible product! Horrible company!"

I feel bad for every single husband who has to deal with these shrews.

Sounds like you should start appropriately setting expectations OP.

Yeah... It's called I don't expect my wife to order parts for anything or new engines

Those expectations are met in my household.


I'm just annoyed because I can't just dismiss the 3 star items... I actually have to go in and sift through the reviews to eliminate the chinese bots and the white women.

Women too often review the experience and not the product.

The vast majority of 1 star reviews out there are by women because the hostess was rude or the cashier gave me a funny look and shite like that.

On the other hand, men shouldn't write advice columns:

Women have no business even picking up a tool. There ought to be a law.

where do they find these needy, self centered bitches?

Luckily no one told my dad not to let me pick up tools when I was in the pit with he and my uncle when they drag raced. Yikes.

Aint just women, lots of dudes are bereft of common sense.

thats why I dont take consumer reviews as gospel, just as a general guide. Reading reviews makes me lose faith in humanity.

My favorite reviews are from moms and grandma's who write: "Bought this for Timmy for Christmas. He hasn't opened it yet. 3/5 stars"

People in general can be pretty bad about thinking clearly about anything. Men too.

They're just in a hurry to "gift the world their opinions".

I have many 3/5 reviews for my SHOP that say things like:

"This record I got doesn't have the song I was looking for"
or
"I didn't really like Side 2"

I was checking reviews on a soaker hose from harbor freight and couldn’t get over all the 1 star reviews from people saying it leaks all over.

I find that many if not most of bad reviews are user error, or lack of research before buying.

They are lesbians
No woman with a husband is ordering and looking at a motor on anything.

Go on FB and check out some of the camping/camper groups. Some of the women there wear the britches and have no common sense. Their husbands are just as lacking.
