not initially no, but you tell me what the law would do if you smacked someone up everytime they said something stupid.
There's too much man-lovin in prison, I'll take the road of destroying them mentally anyday, although I can probably do both.

I'll take it a step further. Women's lib means women have all the advantages of equality but none of it's disadvantages. For example, women make just as much money as men but yet still expect the man to be "traditional" when the bill arrives..
yeah right...
www.mensactivism.org is a site that might open your eyes. |
Stuff like that always pisses me off too. At the risk of trivializing the movement with a joke, let me be the first to shout:
PENIS POWER!!! |

I was just about the get to that but I was thinking it deserved its' own thread.
I agree totally. I'm a supporter of equal rights, but that should come without special treatment.
I've had ex girlfriends get offended when they pay for dinner with their credit card, only to have the waiter hand it back to me. Well what do you expect?! |

No, it was just inspired by something I read on Tribe, and this has been something i've been thinking about for years.
Basically, the sole characteristics that used to define us as men no longer exist, especially now that we have the term 'metrosexual'. If it weren't for our physical appearance, how else would someone be able to tell the sexes apart? Men no longer have anything that defines us characteristically as men. We have however, adapted female characteristics with metrosexuality....Hence the emasculation.
...So in essence, in this day and age, men are becoming more like women, and women are becoming more like men.
Before you know it, we'll be nothing more than living, breathing sperm banks. |

Sperm carrier (and damn good ones at that!).
Edit: I guess you're right. Some women are experts in that I suppose...

Gender roles change over time and are more or less a product of society.
Why must we be so caught up in these things? |

Have you seen all the god awful "mens" shirts these days? its almost impossible to buy a shirt now that is nice but not feminine looking. Pink is for ladies... the end!
oh yeah and once i was with a friend and she bought lunch. But the waiter brought ME the bill. So i called over the manager and give him hell about it. Rightfully so. |

I find it kinda funny that a post has been created like this, and NO women are backfiring!! Not that I am, I mean, power to the sexes as themselves (I like to be spoiled), it's just weird that the ladies of TA aren't throwin forth their own feminist views.
I think it's hard for guys and girls in these modern times... Way back when we all had our own social roles, and everyone could manage to find work where they were needed... now the 'logic and reason' and feminine power and masculine dominance has created opportunities for both sides to do each others' jobs.
I'm not really trying to create an argument, just throw in my opinion. yay for me if i'm repeating points already made, my apologies if i start a tussle. |

I think they havnt thrown their 2 cents in because perhaps the jig is up? I think modern men are getting wise to the scam thats been played on them for the last 30 or so years. Id like to see true equality win the day someday but thats going to require a huge change in attitudes, especially from women. |

hehe either they realize what's goin on, or they're pulling some 'i'm holier than thou' stuff...
and just so you know, i'm a girl, but i think you've figured that out...
i'm all for equality, woohoo and stuff, i just hate hearing whiners about it. Not saying that any of us are. |
