Republican Sen. Josh Hawley said conservatives needed to 'call men back to responsibility,' in a new interview that aired Sunday on Axios on HBO.
'Spending your time on video games, spending your time watching porn online while doing nothing is not good for you, your family, or this country,' Hawley said.
The Missouri Republican also suggested the left should be blamed for men's undoing.

Well in my family of four, brothers and sisters ...all stayed married and are content being married. Except me....lost my husband.
Could I say they love one another and are happy...yes indeed and without question. And they’ve earned it. But I will also say they selected good matches. Friends before they married so they knew each other well.
Too many people get married who shouldn’t these days.
Adam was with her and watched her eat.
God gave him responsibility and authority over the earth. He gave him instructions about the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, BEFORE Eve was created. Therefore it was his responsibility to pass that on correctly, and to make sure they didn’t do it. That apparently did not happen. Whether he told her wrong, or she heard him wrong, when Eve misquoted God’s instructions to the serpent, Adam was responsible at that point to correct her and order the serpent out.
Instead, he, who was with her when she ate, did nothing to stop her, watched her eat, and then partook himself.
It was after HE ate too, that both their eyes were opened.
You are, in your anger and bitterness, reading too much into what I said. I did not ever say she did nothing wrong.
However, like it or not, God held Adam responsible for the fall, as it was his job, as the head of the marriage and steward over God’s creation, to take action when Eve decided to eat.
So, again, if you don’t like the fact that God held Adam accountable for the fall and entry of sin into the world, take it up with Him.
You are assuming too much again. And projecting, to boot.
Show me where I ever said that all women are good and all men are bad.
I’ll wait.
I’m with Hawley though I don’t think average young white boy today cares enough about bumping uglies to bother watching porn...
The whole problem with the dating scene is that it’s built on deceit.
When you date someone, you never get to know them for who they really are. They are on their best behavior, looking their best, willing to be accommodating just to please the other person.
It’s that honeymoon stage of a relationship that is not based in reality at all.
For all courtship is mocked and derided, it really would be a better way of scouting out potential mates. I think you are quite right about being friends first. Get to know the person well, see how they treat their family, especially the parent who is the same sex as you. How a woman treats her father, or a man treats his mother, is going to be a good indicator of how they will treat you.
And be willing to call it quits if you see red flags. It’s going to be easier to do before getting married than after.
Maybe, maybe not. I don't talk with her about her personal life so I cannot tell you one way or the other. I can tell you that she is a hell of a lot poorer.
Sorry about the cat joke but I couldn't help myself. You were raging so hard on men. I'll let you in on a little secret, men are a55holes because women like a55holes. The nice guys just got weeded out of the gene pool by women. Same reason women have breasts because men like breasts.
You seem like a firecracker. Fly down down to Phoenix and I'll show you a good time ;)
Kinda average looking seeks its own level.....which is fine
Women are truly screwed up today by culture
And young men....white men...are starved for testosterone
It’s pitiful
I’m a leak boomer and my wife is an early Xer
There really hasn’t been a cool women generation since my grandmothers....women born between 1895 and WWI
THATS A FACT JACK....JACKIE
now we like talk radio stupidity praise all that crap that’s so poisoned women....for fear of being called sexist
I actually had a young man around 29-32 today be very rude to me over nothing
I said to him “why do so many young white men his age look and act like such neck beard skinny jeans ink covered pussies who let their otherwise cute woman drive them around?
Pardon my French
He was dumbstruck....he started it.
I sit around with men my age I grew up we still notice women and talk about them...like when we were kids
Younger men simply don’t her why we go on about girls....they honestly do not get it
Is that now truly a sad statement on where and why we are where we are as a nation and culture
Young white men ....it’s just awful
No wonder black men and five foot tall Mexicans and Guats are stealing their birthright

Either one of you are welcome to fly down to Phoenix and I'll show you a good time - or both.
Sure is!
Well it generally takes 6 weeks before masks are dropped if someone is wearing one....and that long to scratch the surface of what a person is about.
Dating is fun if you don’t just spend you’re time sitting across a table....it’s doing things together that you see and learn about a person. I always want to do some activity going somewhere...there’s a host of things you can do to get to know an individual.
I find going out to dinner boring and uncomfortable. And meeting parents/family shouldn’t come into the picture for quite a long time.
Same here.
I’d rather go hiking or for a long scenic bike ride.
My one daughter vetted guys by going hiking with them. Any guy who started whining about the ordeal was a no go.
I also don’t have a problem meeting the family early on. Better to find out what the potential in law situation is going to be before becoming too emotionally invested in someone.
If the family is cuckoo, then bail because the chances are, aside from marrying into that mess, he is likely to have baggage from being raised by them whether it shows or not.
The big problem with both men and women is that they don’t think. They run by feeling, or lust, and don’t think with the brain in their heads.
I’m not raging.
You are projecting it you attributing motive to what I wrote.
Every guy thinks he’s prince charming.
I take my marriage vows, which I uttered before God, very seriously. But even if I didn’t, bravado does not impress me.
I’ll pass.
There’s no easy way to fix this. Maybe it will take the downfall of the American Empire. Similar to Ancient Rome. In the meantime, the Left had taken over the American society so that the men have basically decided to call it quits.
Awww.
“Men who watch porn are addicts” Demonstrably untrue statement, most men have watched porn at some point, statistically most are not addicts.
“Porn is the root of most evils in a marriage now a days”. I disagree. I think porn is a symptom of wider issues. If this is the battle you want to fight, more power to you, it’s worth fighting. That being said, if porn were to magically disappear tomorrow, I don’t think the divorce rate would go down and I sincerely doubt the marriage participation rate would go up. The institution of marriage has been intentionally warped to damage the foundation of our society. “Hook up culture” as an example does far more damage than porn. If fact one could make a reasoned argument that the precarious financial situation our nation is in does more to encourage divorce than porn. There are fixes, but no one is going to bother because everyone is fixated on stomping out symptoms instead of root causes.
“Every guy thinks he’s prince charming.”
That is _not_ the problem at all.
Many young men (especially white young men) have low self-esteem because they have been told by their teachers that they are racists and are harming the planet.
In addition average young men have noticed that is only a small percentage of them that is desired by women. That hurts their self-esteem even more.
I’m a different generation.
Understood—but notice that Hawley was directing his comments at young men.
He needs to spend more time talking with young men before mouthing off...
“I sit around with men my age I grew up we still notice women and talk about them...like when we were kids Younger men simply don’t her why we go on about girls....they honestly do not get it”
I was on Fb car group one day and a photo of a girl with a incredible as* was posted.
A guy typed in “Nice pooper” He was imediately attacked by some younger guys “ stupid Sexist comment, mysoginist, arsehole comment, rude” on and on.
I know what you mean..I sit around with guys my age late 50’s early 60’s at car shows and we still talk and look at girls like we are 16.
Dailty Mail has an article today about British boys age 13-16 were sent to fight in WWI trenches..over 400,000 of them and most were KIA.
We are doomed.
“In addition average young men have noticed that is only a small percentage of them that is desired by women”
I remember my grandma born in 1896 saying back in her day women did not have options like today. Many women she knew married unattractive guys because the guy had status, a good job that could afford to give her a stable house, food in her stomach and a comfortable life.
Today majority of young women have degrees and most earn more than the equivelant age male. They no longer need males to survive.
It used to be ugly women were at the bottom of the totem pole. Now it is ugly males. If you are an ugly young male today you are excuse my language “Fuarked”
