It's obvious why they get away with it. Men don't whine all day about how they're being portrayed, because we're too busy doing useful stuff.
Flame on.
This kind of crap doesn't bother me because I am able to laugh at myself. I don't have a chip on my shoulder and don't view myself as a victim.

We've also kept our sense of humor and may be the last social group on earth that is willing to laugh at itself. Flame on, indeed.
You're absolutely right. Western men are responsible for most of the advancement in the world, and most of the good things that the rest of the world is trying to emulate. Political systems, science, medicine, you name it.
