Why American Men Are Failing
The Trumpet ^ | June 2018 | Stephen Flurry

Posted on 08/04/2019 4:27:47 PM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

“American men are failing in body, in mind and in spirit. This is a crisis..." ~ Tucker Carlson

Young women are surpassing men in virtually every area of life. Girls avoid drugs more than boys, play less video games, get better grades, perform better on iq tests, and attend prestigious colleges at a higher rate than boys. The average American woman is likely to live five years longer than the average American man. Men are twice as likely to die of drug overdoses and more than twice as likely to be addicted to alcohol. More than 90 percent of people in jail are men.

Men account for more than three quarters of all suicides in the U.S., and the frequency is increasing. Suicides among middle-aged American men rose 43 percent between 1997 and 2014.

Today, one in every five American children is raised by a single mother—double the rate in 1970. Millions of American children are growing up without fathers.

Chronic, widespread fatherlessnessis leading to huge societal problems. Out of the 27 deadliest mass shooters in U.S. history, 26—including Parkland shooter, Nikolas Cruz—share one thing in common: They all grew up in households without their biological fathers!

Systemic lawlessness, crime, immorality, dangerous leaders and young men who grow up to be school shooters result from the lack of true biblical masculinity.

And the “progressives” demand more. Men are not just irrelevant, they say, men are toxic. Down with patriarchy! Down with traditional family! Down with men! It’s time for women to rise!

This is exactly the dangerous, upside-down condition that the Bible prophesied...

This is a crisis! Pretending it is not a crisis won’t make it go away. Pretending that it is progress won’t make it go away.

Without strong male leadership, our society cannot survive.

And the dominant culture says: “Women sure do have a bad deal, huh? Shouldn’t we do more to help women get to the top? Shouldn’t we do more to put men down?”

I don’t know if its quite as bad as all that, but maybe we can look to history for some insight.

Why did Russian men, under the old USSR, have such rampant alcoholism and shortened lifespans? What was it that made life so unexciting that it needed to be escaped? Lack of opportunity? Oppressive government? Idiotic cultural “norms” imposed from above?

It’s too soon to draw complete parallels, but the ideals the hard left uses to gain advantage over the white male heteronormative orthodoxy have depressing effects.

All of my sons are doing extraordinarily well, and none of them feel the slightest twinge of guilt/privilege/nonsense no matter what freedom’s enemies on the left say to them. I’m proud of their large carbon footprints and hope they will continue to be top-tier producers of prosperity and wealth.

The “War on Women” is a complete LIE.

The War on Men is a REALITY that’s been going on for decades.

Men are meant to be the leaders of society. Pop culture, conventional wisdom, the Left, the media, education - all have converged to attack men, take women out of where they belong, and put them where they don’t.

Satan has launched an all-out attack on society.

We're failing because, in a misguided attempt to reach sexual parity, we yielded the playing field to women.

There's no shame in being a man. There's no shame in being masculine, strong, dependable, honorable, and protective. It's time we reassert those virtues and reclaim the ground we never should have given up.

I will not apologize for being what I am, and I will laugh to scorn any so-called "man" who does.

Pride goes before the fall, fems. Don’t fall. The counter revolution will be a one-puncher.

I think part of it is we don’t have a frontier. Women are good at process and discussion. Men are good at doing things. Women thrive in a stagnant society; men atrophy.

We do have a frontier, but for some reason we completely lost interest in it 45 years ago.

ARTICLE 122. Women in the U.S.S.R. are accorded equal rights with men in all spheres of economic, state, cultural, social and political life.

The possibility of exercising these rights is ensured to women by granting them an equal right with men to work, payment for work, rest and leisure, social insurance and education, and by state protection of the interests of mother and child, pre-maternity and maternity leave with full pay, and the provision of a wide network of maternity homes, nurseries and kindergartens.

Liberalism. If anybody needs someone like me to advise why this World is so damned upside down, it’s because of liberalism.
