From Men's Sites: Think To Yourself - 3 You don't end racism by reversing racism. You end it by ending it. It is these women who understand the concept of roles. They understand that it was not "male dominance" but the necessity of roles that both genders upheld. A man who didn't want to go to war, or wanted to stay home with children, or wanted children in a divorce was just as restricted as a woman wanting to work. More so because women could, in fact, work. Men held the highest levels but we also, and still do, maintain the lowest levels of responsibility in society. This is what the man-bashers fail to see. Men are still fighting the wars, still have worse health care, still loose in divorce, still pay for dates, still work the dangerous jobs, are still kept out of "women only" clubs, and now add to that list discrimination in education and employment There is a whole generation of them raised that way, and they are both are unwilling and afraid to give up the "women only" privilege and truly see men, deal with men, compete with men on a totally equal basis. I agree with everyone else that men are being discriminated against, however I disagree with the statement by someone that women where historically oppressed. Women have never been oppressed in any time in US history. Women have always preferred to be homemakers and have enjoyed raising and nurturing children. Only in the advent of modern media beginning with print media did women feel the need to pursue careers. Even today, women are leaving the corporate world in droves because they find out that they are different than men and that they can't do the jobs as well and don't enjoy them. I know, someone will bring up the fact that women could not vote, well the reason was that historically one vote was offered per FAMILY and the vote was cast by the head of the household. The family was what society was built around and the husband, wife and children were seen as all part of the structure. Therefore, men were to cast the vote in the best interests of the family which included the wife and kids and the women always had a say in who the husband would vote for. Unmarried women were represented by their fathers. The system broke down after world war I when many women were no longer represented by their father or husband, because they died in war, therefore it became necessary to give women a vote of their own. Women have always been fairly represented in our society by men and were in fact well taken care of. In todays society women may get high paying jobs through diversity programs, but they are not as happy as they were in early America. That is the truth. Why the hell do you guys whine here and get some of your male buddies and fight this? No ones gonna hear you cry here! And the thing is men have done much more for the world, such as discovering electricity, toilets, boats, automobiles, computers, Computer OS, video games, the TV, light bulb, elevator, vaccinations and most medicine.. women, nothing Ive heard from lately! We've done much more than women have so I think we're just pitying women now cause they are next to be considered "worthless" what do we need women for except boring children and feeding them when they are younger and porno? If we didnt have men we (As in women) would be cave(wo)men but if we didnt have women (And had a child maker thing) we would probably be the same as we are today. Women are pathetic and make me laugh! What would you rather watch WNBA or NBA? WNFL or NFL? Women havent proved themselves to be equal to men and only proved themselves that they ARE second class citizens. I pity women... I think we pity women to the point were we gotta make them feel better so we give them more fundings and crap cause their feminest morons DO something about it when they get treated bad unlike men! Crybaby women. Why wont you guys get a bunch of friends or start a club and promote it (Newspapers) etc or something? Stop crying here and do something about it! White men are denied the right to excel. I have seen court cases where white males are kept from employment for no other reason except that they look like someone who discriminated 75 years ago. That, dear lady, is the essence of discrimination. Bottom line is this. If a woman's right to reproductive choice is affirmed, so to must it be for men. If a woman's protection as a parent is affirmed in divorce, so to must it be for men with total equality across the board. If women maintain the right to their dignity, to choice on that matter, to privacy, then so to must it be afforded to men. If women can discriminate in hiring, membership, so to must men. Reasons are irrelevant. The constitution does not provide rational for judgement of reason, it provides for right to privacy, and freedom of association. One way or the other, but you can't have it both ways. That is what the argument is. Instead of bottling up your resentments and making it seem like it's everyone else's fault that you are the bad guys, make an organization like all the other people you've bitched about.** The organizations are out there. There are a lot and they are being thwarted each and every day by uniformed opinions such as yours. The father's rights movement alone is as big as the women's movement. You didn't know that? Hmm, must be because the media keeps squashing it-that same media that portrays us as villains. Interesting, no? You want to know why women get more money for breast cancer than men do for prostate cancer? One reason, I'm sure is because you're all complaining about it in a forum,another is because a much more significant number of people ie from breast cancer than prostate cancer.** We have heard it all before and quite frankly it is getting tiresome. Say something of worth. Give some informed opinion. Lend some support or save your breath. |
