It is precisely this dynamic – women good/men bad – that has destroyed the relationship between the sexes.

True, but instead of the pendulum swinging back just enough to straighten things out, it's swinging too far the other way. Increasingly now, it's "men good/women bad." Too many men nowadays sound just like feminazis. "Men are noble victims. Women are evil. Everything is women's fault. The decks are all stacked against men, who are perfect." I don't see how this is going to do anything but make things even worse. Not enough people seem willing to admit that there is plenty of blame to go around on ALL sides, and that we should try to come together. I think people would rather be victims.

I missed that, where is that reflected in the laws?

It's a societal characteristic. Victims get a pass on doing anything for themselves. If a person can't actually achieve public Victimhood, he can try to pick up the vibe by feeling really, really bad for victims and supporting hugs and handouts to victims.

I like to say, "I'm not a victim: I'm a perpetrator!" which is a way of saying, "I'm the subject of my sentences, not the object."

“The decks are all stacked against men”

Legalized affirmative action makes this more than just an opinion; it is government policy.

“Not enough people seem willing to admit that there is plenty of blame to go around on ALL sides, and that we should try to come together.”

When women oppose against affirmative action, that MIGHT happen; don’t hold your breath.

“I think people would rather be victims.”

The men aren’t complaining; they sometimes have to defend their bachelorhood against social/family pressures, but I assure you they are quite content to let the culture that marginalized them go the way of the dodo. I’m not surprised at the number of American men I know who are much more open to marrying foreign women; the American women can boil & seethe at the new crop of mestizos running around.

“” Too many men nowadays sound just like feminazis. “Men are noble victims. Women are evil. Everything is women’s fault. The decks are all stacked against men, who are perfect.””

Do you live in Iran? In the United States, none of your fantasies have happened yet, and likely never will.

In any case, feel free to keep hating men - it’s important for people, like my sons, to see your postings, so as to NEVER get near an American women, when it comes time to marry.

Rather Pollyanna view of things in my estimation. I have more than a few friends who got married and their wives dumped them and then made their lives living hells over visitation with the kids and child support. A father has zero rights in court where just about everything is stacked against him in favor of the ex-spouse.

Every time I thought about marriage, I'd see the horrendous penalty suffered by the guys who got it wrong and were indentured servants to a vengeful ex-spouse. Also, American women are, for the most part, self-centered and immature. They think the world should kiss their butts. Foreign women absolutely adore American men — some in deference to their own men — but both foreign sexes agree that American women are the pits [but for different reasons].
