As long as they have sex with each other, I’m all for it. If one is going to fear and despise women, one should go the whole hog, so to speak.

So, basically it happened all at once, in 1968, when the networks all went basically communist and took all the country shows off the air and put on all urban shows glorifying dindu nuffins.

I don’t like seeing the implosion of our country.

These guys are ruining things as much, if not more, than the left.

One of the more ridiculous trends in the last 20 years or so is the “Warrior Princess” stereotype. Not that they are all princesses.

A good example is Smallville which was a pretty good series. Lois Lane whipping a special forces type soldier was bad enough but at least she is a fairly big girl.

Tiny Lana Lang regularly beating up on guys is just a little hard to take.

If, like many of us who have never been able to find a worthwhile woman, they turn to each other for support, why is that a problem? I’m very sympathetic to what they’re saying. If I met somebody that could change, but right now it’s the way I see it. No need to say anybody is imploding the country. And I don’t see how they’re doing it anyway.

I don’t see what you wrote as what was presented.

As for you, I’m not sure how old you are, but it can and does happen at any stage in life.

And Al Bundy started “NO MA’AM!” He’s an American icon :)

Feminism destroys nations and castrates men. Sweden who is run by feminazis is a perfect example. Here’s a video that makes a case as to why that is.

The fear is that of family court, not women. In addition to losing half your assets initially there is the future wage garnishment. A guy making 100k could easily net 30k after alimony, child support and taxes. The guys simply don’t think there are enough good apples to be bothered searching through a barrel of rotten ones. These guys are are not gay. Most will date to get sex. They will be intentionally vague about their desire to marry.

In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks by Adam Corolla should be required reading for every guy under 40.

“The guys” really just need to have sex with one another. That makes them a closed circle rather than contributors to the familial entropy that will destroy what was once a free country under rule of law.

I just read the lyrics and I’m still laughing!! God help me for loving such a low IQ show but it made my LAUGH!! :) I’m gonna have to do a Married With Children Binge this week.

Who’s that riding into the sun?
Who’s the man with the itchy gun?
Who’s the man who kills for fun?
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

He sleeps with a gun, but he loves his son.
Killed his wife ‘cause she weighed a ton.
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

A little touched or we’re told
Killed his wife ‘cause she had a cold
Might as well she was gettin’ old
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

He’s quick with a gun, and his job ain’t done.
Killed his wife by twenty-one
Psycho Dad!

Who’s that riding in the sleigh?
Who’s that firing along the way?
Who’s roughing up bums on christmas day?
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

Who’s the tall, dark stranger there?
The one with the gun and the icy stare?
The one with the scalp of his ex-wife’s hair?
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

Who’s that riding across the plain?
Who’s lost count of the wifes he’s slain?
Who’s the man who’s plumb insane?
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad!

“OF COURSE these men are animals and wrong, but THEY EXIST. Living in reality is a good thing.”

But they think they can change reality. Like the Alaska grizzly man who thought he could be friends with bears.

Delusion kills.

You’re seriously talking about comic characters I presume) in this context?

Good Lord!!!!

Watched the whole 8 minutes then a spanish video where they had the audio and the picture of him half eaten!!!!

A shame a pretty girl got eaten. But her offspring wouldn’t have been the sharpest knives in the drawer.

There’s a term for these males: boys.

Maybe some, but a marriage is now a legal relationship with very little upside for the man anymore. The odds are after a while you will be divorced, with enormous bills, labeled in public court a threat to your kids, etc. No matter how much the man was committed to the relationship.

There are a lot of American men who like women, but don’t like American women. This article explains why.

I worked at a Chinese owned company (in the US). There were a lot of Asians working there, from India, China, the Phillipines, etc. And there were Americans. One day I looked around and noticed all the Asian women were happily married, working as partners with their husbands. And all the American women I worked with were divorced.

The OP is about the portrayal of women in tv and similar. I’m talking about the Marvel Universe movies.

“...Bart, who is sneaky, stupid, and unmotivated...”

No, he’s snarky, precocious, and rebellious. All admirable survival skills in a young white boy these days, IMO.
