Yeah, "dumb white guy" who can't operate a computer.

Except for one thing. Everything related to a computer, from the motherboard, to the plastic case, to the metal screws holding it together, to the software running it, to the glass monitor, to the electricity running it, to the power plants that provide the electricity, to the dams that hold back the water, that generates the electrical power... ALL OF THAT, THE WHOLE ENCHILADA, was built by and/or invented/created by friggin' men!

I challenge any woman on this site to name one damn thing invented by a woman. And kitchen and/or haircare gadgets don't count!

Then go take a look at a magazine rack. All of the women's magazines are focused on "me, me, me". Cosmo, Glamour, Me, Weddings, Bridal this and Bridal that, clothes, makeup, etc. ad nasuem.

Then look at men's magazines: It's all about activities and creation. Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, Hot Rods, Guns and Ammo, Sports Illustrated, Newsweek, Time, Fortune, Architecturial Digest, etc..

And consider television shows such as "Yes, Dear" (the husband is a total wuss; even the show's name forewarns you about the premise of the show), then the Lifetime Channel. On the Lifetime Channel all men are either (a) totally wussified, (b) rapists, (c) wife-beaters, (d) wife-killers, (e) child molesters, (f) criminal thugs, (g) racists -- you get the picture. And on the Lifetime Channel, all women are noble, oppressed, courageous, wise, benevolent, dignified, honorable, etc. "You go girl!" "Girl Power".

And by the way, I hear that the Lifetime Channel is owned by the Alpha Feminist, Orca Winfrey.

It is not just Lifetime, the same thing is pretty much true of all media to a lesser degree.

I don't watch Lifetime. I actually like Spike TV. Lifetime is too creepy for me.

Speaking of the Lifetime channel, I hear they are going to do a Cat woman miniseries. The first 5 episodes have her getting her hair done, bikini waxing, manicure,pedicure,arms waxed, and taking her clothes to the cleaners. After that she kills 8 terrorists with a salad.
