Women have elevated themselves... naturally women are progressing at a rate our forefathers never imagined, blaming video games, or whatever is a cop out, most people seperate fact from fiction, most wackos who do mass shootings are social rejects...

It's all about coming together, women these days, especially the sucessful ones demand more from a mate, socially women have a advantage over men... this trend won't change.

Literally "men need to step up" is what women say these days and most believe it.

It's going to be a downward spiral for men, most these "losers" honestly just don't care anymore.

Penn • 3 days ago 1 word - feminism. When being male is portrayed negatively in society men stop caring and carrying the burden. Schools are feminized (only look female/male teacher ratio), fathers are treated as mobile ATMs (in year 2012 indentured servitude still exists in USA), universities have rape hysteria coupled with gender "studies" extremism.
So please tell me why should men get back to old ways of being the foundation when all they get today's society is shaming/slavery/redundancy/aggression? And to all of those nice feminists - you created the problem, now fix it!


Ask these young men how women have changed and you'll get your answer.
As a young man, that was not the case for me. Overall I'd say I had more female teachers in HS, but not by a large margin. Playing sports, you get to be in a masculine environment as well. And I don't know what family you may have came from, but my father was/is certainly more to me than an ATM. He definitely isn't an indentured servant, LOL.

Saying we're shamed by society is silly (sure, in sitcoms we sometimes take on the fat dumb guy role, but it's a sitcom. Anyone who think that's based on reality is an idiot). Saying we're enslaved is almost offensive to real slaves. I'm sorry you feel that way, but it's your own fault. Redundancy? All of us, male or female, are redundant. There's 7 billion of us. Aggressive? I think males are naturally more aggressive, yes. Nothing wrong with that. If channeled the right way, it can be pretty positive.

So I think you might be overly sensitive. We young men can do just fine if we apply ourselves. If you're a slacker, you usually won't do well.

I'm not a man? lol
I wish I were more of a man.
One of my biggest regrets is that I never became an ultimate man.
I settled.

Sorry I see too many young guys that simply cannot step up and take responsibility for themselves or do anything without mommy and daddy's checking account or credit card and sadly most of these kids or middle and upper income kids who somehow feel they are entitled to IPhones, MacBooks, X-Boxes, Playstations, and the latest designer fashions, and new cars and somehow their parents are "losers" if they don't provide them.
You're probably older and that wasn't around in your days fine but blaming this on the following is lame, inflation is up there, everything cost more and salaries haven't risen up that much so it's not mostly a loser male type of thing but facing the reality that everything is different these days compared to the older generation, most these young men just don't care and I kinda see and feel where they're coming from.

I know several 40 year olds who just wanna chase women around, they all share a one bedroom apartment, 3 sleep on the floor/couch and the guy who actually has a job gets the bedroom.

I'm sending them this article and I'll reply with his response, he's pretty deep when he wants to be. It's not so much abc, women have changed big time and alot of men don't know how to deal with it.

I blame feminism way more than the "loser male".

Then it's about 50% slackers in your opinion, plenty of "fathers" with children will state the same thing. I'm no slacker that's for sure but it's a clear cut issue and honestly most men have NEVER been leaders, most follow others.

Most of us live in a imaginary world to be blunt, we must "power up" and overcome all obstacles.

You blame feminism (women) for what exactly?

It goes both ways. The females have changed. I see young woman who's faces are strained - who are aging prematurely due to their so-called new found freedom. Woman who are ashamed of their womanhood wander by with this look of bitter disappointment. I see older woman who bought into the feminist freedom factor and who live alone or have a small dog they treat as a child...It is not just the males who have mutated it is all of western society. Those who are "normal" are loathed and mistrusted by this new majority. Youth has been conditioned to envy and hate. Love and honor are considered some archaic notion.

It really hit home when I was on the street this morning...Woman who are 25 carry the look of woman that are pushing 40. The street cars are full of workers in the morning- MOST are female...most look tired and miserable- The feminist freeing of the female was a lie. As for them men- It takes a good woman to bring out the best in a man and to hasten manhood along. There are few good woman left...There is separation between the sexes that almost seems biblical tone...as if we are cursed to suffer. Youth...is now longer a joy....and manhood is despised because it entails honor...Honor is oppressed because we are corrupt.

What do you think is wrong with "men"? or young men"

Most of what you think can be tied in with feminism.

agreed but that's the price you pay and it does go both ways. lots of women try to get serious about marriage at a later age and it doesn't work out so well.

How do you tie feminism in with video games? What's the link?
