You know, I’m thankful every day that I had a daughter. Because if I had a son instead the best advice I could have given him at 18 would be to get a vasectomy. The whole risk/reward equation no longer pencils out. As a divorced father (no former) smoker, home owner with a day job, I know a thing or two about being a political red-headed step child. Didn’t take long for me to figure out that I and men like me have zero friends in any branch, any level in either party of government. More are figuring it out. A lot of men are refusing to marry and have kids. That stagnant birth rate is a lot of young men just going Galt in their own way.
Part of the problem men have failed to form a united voting block. Instead, they have allowed themselves to be divided and pandered to. The result is that the politicians who pander to their particular group to get their votes also pander to women at their expense to get the female vote.
Until men form a united voting block that makes politicians pay with their jobs for discriminating against them, they will continue to have zero friends in government.
interesting point.
