Dr. Helen Smith: American society has become anti-male. Men are sensing the backlash and are consciously and unconsciously going "on strike." They are dropping out of college, leaving the workforce and avoiding marriage and fatherhood at alarming rates. The trend is so pronounced that a number of books have been written about this "man-child" phenomenon, concluding that men have taken a vacation from responsibility simply because they can. But why should men participate in a system that seems to be increasingly stacked against them?
As Men on Strike demonstrates, men aren't dropping out because they are stuck in arrested development. They are instead acting rationally in response to the lack of incentives society offers them to be responsible fathers, husbands and providers. In addition, men are going on strike, either consciously or unconsciously, because they do not want to be injured by the myriad of laws, attitudes and hostility against them for the crime of happening to be male in the twenty-first century. Men are starting to fight back against the backlash. Men on Strike explains their battle cry.

this I need to save for later.. My wife met a “bro-nie” during her recent travels and she’ll love this..
This is true. I worked with a guy whose psycho wife drove to where we worked in the middle of the day when there was no traffic. After 5:00 the Middlesex Turnpike becomes a parking lot. She beat him with the vacuum cleaner pipes when he got home.
That is why guys need to learn the concept of the “Trust”...
This happens to women too. I do feel for the poor guys that get stuck paying huge child support payments to children that are the product of their wife’s affair(s).
What’s wrong with asking someone to lunch? Sheesh, we’ve gotten soft! I grew up in the 70s when a train conductor asked me for a date: “Wanna go to a motel and smoke some weed?” Now that’s clueless.
Yep.
Self-granted Nevada trust, stripping out 90+% of assets, 180 days before marriage.
Include a couple shell companies owned by the trust, so growth stays seperate.
Almost no need for a pre-nup.
Before I clicked your name I guessed “California”.
This is precisely why I advised my daughter to get married and my son not to.
Our 26 year old daughter has had many dates with males her calendar age but live and act the life of 16 year old boys still. Many of those acting more mature to her level are either gay or married.
She’s given up for now.
I had to Google "bro-nie".... friggin' amazing the children who pose as chronological adults these days...
This thread provides a lot of fresh material for country and western songs. Thanks guys!
“I do feel for the poor guys that get stuck paying huge child support payments to children that are the product of their wife’s affair(s).”
I know three men who I believe were nice men and caring husbands whose wives had affairs on them and then, despite attempts at counseling, left them. It’s something when the kids tell the judge they want to stay with the father and he raises them; as was the case here.
What all moonbats look like on the inside.
What disturbing things the liberal “culture” has produced. Alien life forms.
Hopefully she did not take your VW when she moved out, Fred (I recall your photos from other threads). Now THAT would be a capital worthy crime!
That is entirely too true, my ex accused me of having an affair when I got home 15 min late on what was normally a 45 minute commute. We had heavy traffic that day...
Yeah, I stayed single from my late 20’s until I was past my 30’s. Why...? Because during that time all the available women in that age group are either raising some other guys’ kids or had an ass the size of a barcalounger. And in Ohio, fast food capital of the world, it was usually both.
Free sex with little or no attached responsibility for the male is the legacy of 50 plus years of liberal politics and the resultant destruction of cultural mores.
No one has done more to degrade females, turn them into recreational sexual implements, and destroy their lives than democrats - that is where the real War On Women originated.
This is horrifying.
With all the casual hook ups and friends with benefits these (immoral) days, there’s no need to buy the cow. Heck, there’s no reason to rent one, either.
Yet so few young people are capable of taking the controls of their own helicopters.
