You forgot chitty attitude. Like don’t bother with teaching a young man if he is not blood related. Whats wrong with mentoring and volunteer in boys and young mens organizations. Perhaps if men actually committed to one woman and stayed around to raise his children instead of whoring around collecting and spreading STDs there wouldn’t be so many fatherless children with no solid role model.

Seems the things you list are things that are under a man’s own control. As far a jobs, yes men are being hired it is just many typical male jobs are being outsourced or under much competition. You may have to go to college or back to school, like many women are doing.

There was an interesting piece on CBS Sunday Morning a few weeks back: As gender roles change, are men out of step? - CBS News

Quote:
"Boys think that academic disengagement is a sign of masculinity," said Kimmel. "The less you can do in school, the less connected you are, the less interested you are, the more manly you are."


Which may explain why about 70 percent of valedictorians today are girls. And it's not just about grades: It's about jobs.
"The economy shifting to a service economy, a knowledge-based economy, a words-based economy rather than an action-based economy has certainly been to the detriment of that traditional ideology of masculinity," said Kimmel. "And those men who most strongly subscribe to it are those men who are going to be left behind."

The worst problem facing young males I would think is all these autism spectrum disorders as that is the main reason they have so many issues finding their way in this world and having relationships.

Wow. Bitter much? There's a lot of generalizations in there.

Not sure how you figure Im bitter much.

You dont think "each one teach one" BUT ONLY IF ITS BLOOD REALATED isnt a crap attitude for someone complaining about the destruction of men. This attitude is the root of the problem. Men no longer want to get involved and mentor. When my father was a young man, before he had his own children, he volunteered as a scout master and coached ball. I had male friends in college that were involved in the big brother organization. They didnt whine about the downfall of man, they actually made a difference.

Its not a generalization that there is a abundance of single mothers and young men out there with multiple baby mommas. Its not a generalization the children fair better when they have both an involved mother AND FATHER.

Its not a generalization that men (or women for that matter) are in control of their sexual activities and prevention of STDs, their education and career choices and managing their anger.

So how has the King of the home fallen? He has left the thrown and abandoned his responsibilities.

And this just brings another factor in your own destruction. Lack of personal responsibility. The fact that you blame everyone else for your own shortcommings is not a positive characteristic.

Just because the door is open dosent mean you have to enter.
