Come on, don’t buy into the ‘all women are victims’ line here. No-win situation.
How ‘bout being a conservative white guy in today’s world. We’re the problem for everything. Nobody out there has our backs. Nobody bends over backwards not to fire us. They don’t care if they say offensive things to us, we just better take it and not say anything back. God forbid we fight with our spouse, we get a domestic violence charge slapped at us and get put through the ringer by female divorce attorneys sponsored by any number of womens’ groups. Made indentured sevants to the govt via child support services that only serve to make things worse between the ex’s. Women still have choies to stay at home or work, even without kids. Nobody rips them for that, men have never had that option without negative connotations. The whole unequal pay issue, after factoring the levels of jobs, time off for maternity, etc, changes the gap to only a couple cents difference.
When do we get our support group? When do we get our march? When do we get a bunch of non-profits out there representing our interests? We’re less than equal, having less acceptable choices available, but always portrayed as more than equal.
And can we just finally stop this whole stupid trend of tiny women somehow kicking the crap out of huge guys in the movies and tv? It’s just ridiculous.
Did you read my post? Nowhere did I imply women were victims except of their own expectations.
