  This is one of the reasons I like to levitate away from my mother and sisters. They believe that women should be given rights above men because the past women (i.e NOT THEM) experienced lower rights. This is like saying Jewish people should be able to kill Neo-Nazis because of the Holocaust. I'll quote this funnyjunk image series;
  [spoiler]

  
  -If a woman gazes upon a naked man in a window, he is exposing himself.
  -If a man sees a naked woman in a window, he is a looker.
  
  -If you work hard and much, you 'never' have time for her.
  -If you don't work hard and much, you're a useless a lazy bum
  
  -If she has a boring and underpaid job, she is being used and discriminated.
  -If you have a boring and underpaid job, you just have to get a new and better job.
  
  -If you are being promoted before a woman, it's discriminating.
  -If she gets promoted before you, it's called gender equality.

  
  

  
  -If you mention how good the women at work look, you're sexist.
  -If you're quiet, you'll be accused of not appreciating women.
  
  -If you cry, you're a pussy
  -If you don't, you're insensitive
  
  -If you make a decision without consulting her, you're a chauvinist.
  -If she makes a decision without consulting you, she's and independent woman.
  
  -If you ask her to do something she doesn't like, you're dominant.
  -If she asks you to do something you don't like, it's called a favor.

  
  

  
  -If you appreciate female shapes and dirty underwear, you're a pervert.
  -If you don't, you're insensitive to her needs.
  
  -If you like women shaving and keeping in shape, you're a pig.
  -If you don't, you aren't romantic.
  
  -If you like to stay in shape, you're conceited.
  -If you don't, your freaking lazy.
  
  -If you buy her flowers, you want something.
  -If you don't, you aren't capable of showing compassion.

  
  

  
  -If you're proud of your success, you're a superior a-hole.
  -If you aren't, you're without ambition and backbone.
  
  -If she's got a "headache", she's tired.
  -If you have a headache, you don't love her anymore.
  
  -If you keep trying to get her to bed, you're obsessed with sex
  -If you don't, you're having an affair.

  [/spoiler]
  Women are the superior sex now, simply because they have the backing of the public eye, media, and the simple instinctive sexual needs of men. Artificial semen? It's a miracle of engineering. Artificial wombs? It's a disgusting perversion of nature.
  
  But I do agree with one point, in that young men are being exposed to terrible stimuli and resources. I for one am in puberty, and still thank god I have not been victim to the various "Slap them hos" and "If you ain't playing football, yee'r gay!" 'expectations' that Georgia provides.

  The fact that he considered being less religious a negative point makes me discredit the entire article, his career, and him as a person.
  
  I see that as one of the greatest achievements of the past two generations.

  
  This.

  Girls: "Can i see your abs?"
  Men: "Sure"
  
  But...
  
  Men: "Can i see your breasts?"
  Girls: "NO! YOU PERVERT!"

  I love and agree with you.
  
  *sigh* We just can't have equality, can we? Or nice things.

  It means us guys need to step it up!
  
  But I'm glad to be living in an age where women don't stand getting bossed around by men anymore. I love my Dad and all, but I think it's a little ridiculous that he has to depend on Mom to make food. In this day and age, it should be more equal. Women can work too. Men can stay at home some days and cook and take care of the kids too.
  
  It doesn't de-masculinate you (just made that word up) at all. In fact, it makes you the bigger man.

  I don't understand some of the hate over here o-o. I mean, yeah the article is kind of bs, but still. Males still have it the easiest in almost every society and I doubt that patriarchy will change any time soon.

  Quote from Zid;612109:

  Except the argument is from a "man".

  
  I've seen a man argue that overzealous flirting equals rape (only towards women of course), so that's not really a convincing point by itself.
  
  I don't see anything "feminazisitc" about this though, since he's not arguing that men are inferior or whatever, just that they have a hard time catching up with a changing reality which in turn makes it also hard for their sons to find their palce as a man in life. That's not really news though. :what:
  
  
  I agree with most of his ideas, except the religion-part. A strong involvement with community should be helpful either way though, for all sexes and ages.
  

  Quote from ScoutNinja;612227:

  Well let's just hope this is a wake-up call for guys to start stepping up. All I don't want is an Amazon empire in the near future.

  
  I dn't know. My idealism wants to paint it as a transition from chimpanzee-like patriarchal societies to Bonobo-like matriarchal societies, but that's probably wishful thinking.

  I was just going to say that myself. Was skimming through to see if anyone else noticed that.
  
  As for video games. It's fine when done in moderation. I still play my games and get my work done and in fact, I have a flaw when it comes to programming. I become obsessed with any programming language when I get into it. Especially if a problem comes up and I'm determined to fix it. Heck, just yesterday I worked 3-4 extra hours from home cause I wanted to solve one particular problem with load times and queries and managed to become more knowledgeable in the process.
  
  But that's beside the point I would imagine.
  
  What it means to be a man? Psh! All you need is this.
  
  1) Work hard
  2) Don't be Lazy
  3) Treat Others with Respect
  4) ???
  5) PROFIT!
  
  Seriously, not that hard. You would think that would be common sense. I guess not though.

  Women have fought for their equlility now and they got it
  Cant people just be happy
  Both genders equal and can it?
  Men can be idiots but so can women
  So what if there are more idiot guys then girls
  As long as they dont do anything really bad whats the issue
