so now men need a woman to tell them how to be men?

Wow. Where to start. This is one clueless woman.

stuff your genie

[Kenton]

This is a good example of why we don't allow women at deer camp.

[Fierce Allegiance]

I love the smell of diesel in the morning.

[tgusa]

A-MEN, brother!

[CPOSharky]

I'm going to the range this afternoon. Any suggestions for targets?

[agere_contra]

Tedious, tendentious article (though - thanks for posting!) For the soi-disant elite living in the media echo chamber only.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

What a load of bollocks!

[SMARTY]

The more of this stuff I read and hear the more convinced the only real men I know are my brother and my father. Neither of those guys EVER were confused about themselves.

Spend some time in the UK and you'll understand what this is all about. This is the result of political correctness run amok.

[Jim Noble]

Now, it’s up to men to fight their own revolution.

Yawn.

More "men must change" BS.

It is absolutely correct that women want real men-to the extent that any woman can be said to know what she wants.

However, any false "masculinity" which is defined to any extent by females is worthless TO WOMEN.

I lived there for a year in the 70s and most of the men were pussies already.

[SQUID]

I see the pussification of men every day. Not only that, but women these days have such a chip on their shoulder for all men. I think todays feminism is very much a lesbian agenda that simply rejects men period. They would like to see no gender differences in appearance and behavior. In fact, even sex will be obsolete.

You don't need anyone to tell you how to be yourself and be confident in it.

I had to stop reading this pap. In the words of Popeye, "I y'am what I y'am."

[SQUID]

Women want to be treated like an equal until it's time to pay the tab.

[sittnick]

Article was too worthless to finish, but: Outperformed by girls at school, emasculated by women at home and at work, shockingly dislocated from your emotions and the hapless joke figure in endless TV commercials and sitcoms whose message is that females rule and men are fools.

Uh, real men don't look to society for their cues. I did just fine in school; work in a field that still attracts few women (MIS); waited until I found a REAL woman to marry, who is happy to be married to THE breadwinner and head of household; I don't have time to waste on my emotions; and we do not have a television in our house. We watch classic movies on the computer.

Oh, one last key. We moved near a church (traditional Catholic with approval of local bishop) filled with like-minded families so that we can socialize without being marginalized, and so we can raise our children in peace.
