When someone is stating something which is false for the majority how is that reaching for womens liberation? I’m just saying it’s bs and tried to substantiate it with my own experiences. If one can’t give their opinion what is the entire point of this commentsection than?

Neither is the second bit. >

This man doesn’t get sex >

youre a minor bro >

I have long hair, so I'm never sure if a girl likes me or if they just want to braid my hair. >

~~They like you dude.~~ Girls don't braid a random guy's hair no matter how long it is.
Source: Am long-haired guy.
EDIT: I forgot that people use the word "like" to imply romantic/sexual intent. Tragic state of language but it is what it is. >

False, some of us are really into braiding hair. As other girls won't let us braid their hair, we'll take anything >

yeah i can admire someones hair without being into it. I will not braid a rando's hair, but someone i know for sure! 
The hair doesn't only need to be long though, also clean. >

This is what I meant. I was using "like" as a friend. Forgot that this is reddit and people will naturally assume I'm talking about sex. >

Not once in my life have I seen a boy pull a girls hair because they like them. >

I did that. I remember one time where girls gave me some strands of their hair. I was barely 10yo. I got flashbacks. >

Yeah, I did that. 
Got my nose bloodied by the cute neighbor across the street when I did it. Later, she ran me over with her Schwann Stingray to show she liked me back. 
Good times. >

Schwann? >

Autocorrect thinks I need food delivered instead of the SCHWINN that I had typed in. I’ll edit. 
Nah, I won’t. >

makes sense >

On the other hand, a girl almost stomped my pp when I was in elementary while we were playing. >

I hate it when people tell a girl, "It's because the boy likes you" when a boy bullies a girl.
Don't make a girl think, "If a boy bullies me, he likes me."
Don't teach boys, "You have to bully the girl you like to get her attention."
It's not good for a girl or a boy. >

Yeah I’m sick to death of this narrative, it goes on to permeate & perpetuate throughout society, to greater disturbing levels. >

I'm having quite a laugh at these dumb redditors unable to comprehend what the OP really meant by pulling hair. >

I mean it's redditors, can't really expect much. >

And some girls ask their girlfriend to pull their hair instead (speaking from experience) >

So I am gay and have autism, so because neither if this was true for me, and because of my conditioning. Nobody wants me to pull their hair, and I have never pulled anyone's hair. There for, I am a statistical anamoly. >

Don't think a lot about it. It's not a rule just some people do it to make a physical contact, to flirt. >

Well seems OP is not the most experienced. Not all women want their hair pulled… Out of 15 bedpartners I’ve only had one that wanted it and it was a huuuuge turn-off for me personally. Blatantly stating girls ask boys to pull their hair if they like them, is quite sexist and shortsighted. You can’t measure every girl/woman by the same standards.
Edit: Google translated vrouwonvriendelijk (something like not very nice towards women) to misoginy which is actually hate towards women. My bad. >

I never pulled a girl's hair to show her I liked her, but didn't feel like this post was a massive slight against me because it didn't "see" me, because we all know that generalizations are fallible. There's a world of difference between this post and actually assuming every woman likes hairpulling. And it being a turn-off for you is just as irrelevant as it being a turn-on for me
I dunno, women's liberation is really important, but this seems like a reach to me
