Absolutely. The US government and the government of the several states I have lived in have all denied me opportunities because I am a demonized white male.

Yeah, government work is a real joy. Being a white male disabled Veteran I'm equalized vs. other job applicants. That is I'm on equal terms for employment consideration. The +5 Veterans preference and the +5 Disabled are what are required to compete with women and minorities for government work. In effect the EEOC assigns -5 for being white and another -5 for being male. In addition it enforces quotas which 100% disqualify a person outside the target group. In that case given my rating a quota will force out other white males before me. It's completely assinine, bordering on segregation.

Great article.
However, he left out that fact that men are routinely discriminated against in the divorce courts. That they are routinely cut off from access to their kids. That the courts engage in 'legal violence' (similar to domestic violence) against us.
That they have laws on the books that allow them to leave us with nothing to eat, nowhere to live, and no hope for the future.

Wow. This basically makes the tagline I recently switched to prophetic.

I agree, some of the popular perspectives that hard working white males must endure are pretty harsh and based on fantasy. Why feminists pass blame as opposed to try to equip women with tools to compete should they choose to is beyond me.

White males who find success easy to achieve, will never have any sympathy for those white males who must struggle for it.

as a white american male I say,
"bring it on!"
the harder I have to work for something, the more I enjoy it.
To: Pokey78
If you really want discrimination, try being a college educated white male and being laid off from a good paying, blue collar job with a large corporation...I couldn't count how many times I heard "Sorry we don't hire laid off aircraft workers" or the old chestnut "Well you are overqualified for this position" yet in the same week they would hire individuals of Vietnamese descent that were my co-workers before we were laid off

If your a white man and your asking wheres mine your not white! your just a n!22*& Men don't ask for things they go and get them no matter what stands in the way! boys sit around and wait for things men make it hapen!Not exactly how I would have phrased it but you are correct.
Is the white man now another victim group?
Will the liberals start to court them and promise them a teat?
Suck it up boys!

*I've never heard of n!22*&. What is that? Please translate. Now you said that if a white man asks where's mine, and you say he's not white. What is he then?
