Of course, I could also note that men on FR even are great for poking fun at and complaining about women (when not lusting after them) and "broad-brushing" all kinds of things about them.

No, that is not right at all. A lot of FReeper men are more than happy to bash American females in retaliation for the way they have been treated by those females. However I have never read a post by a Freeper man against women, American or otherwise. Never confuse female and women, one is a sex and the other is a condition. You write like a women which is good, it means you were raised well.

Well thanks, but I disagree about FR (although it wasn't intended just as FR, but as a microcosm).

As in real life too, men "bash" women and it is NOT simply a reaction to crazy feminism. They complain a lot, and make fun of things "typical" of women, and brag about why men are so great.

Yes, men are taking alot of garbage on TV and all that now (being the dummies, or jerks, or whatever), but that apparently hasn't changed all the real men in the real world. No, they're not dummies, but they're not all truly respectful of women as a whole, either. And it wouldn't matter whether they had spent a generation being "hen-pecked" in the media. Alot of men are seeming the same as their grandfathers allegedly were "back in the old days".
