I am a man, and I have been around men and women all of my life and enjoy their company.

Don't weep for me with your crocodile tears, I am not marginalized.

That is not a fair statement, if you believe that, then I wonder what you believe of the Centuries and Decades that white men having not only denigrated women and minorities by trying to relegate them to less than status, and have a long history of having done much to hold women and minorities back. ????

To radical conservatives ~ minorities asking for a seat at the table is 'oppressing white males".

Puhleeze.

I came of age in the '70s and experienced sexual harassment routinely in every job I ever held. It was expected. There was no one to report it to because no one cared.

Now women are standing up and saying no more. And that has shaken society to the core because up until now it's been a man's world.

I, too, have had mostly decent, honorable men in my life, but I will never forget a boss laying his hands on me, and knowing I was powerless to do anything about it if I wanted to keep my job.

I'm sorry if men are feeling ambushed by this movement, but women have felt powerless in the face of male dominance for too long now. This is women pushing back. They are shaking up the status quo, and that's a good thing.
Women are not standing up, only the liberal ones are. I live in a conservative area and I know absolutely no women who support all this. I have heard no one outside the internet say Kavanaugh should not be confirmed and a great many people are disgusted by the metoo nonsense, women included. What is happening is liberal women in more liberal places are pushing back and putting serious strains on our society. The Democratic Party is already radicalized and these far left feminist are another club to beat red state America with. Not only is this a war on men, it’s a war on American values. The tensions between the radical left and regular Americans has become very dangerous and it threatens the stability of the Union itself.

Asking for an acquaintance.

Yes. The typical Conservative male nowadays is a soft, whining crybaby who cower at the sight of their own shadow. They see hobgoblins around every corner. Blacks, Muslims, liberal women, Al Qaeda, ISIS, illegal immigrants, Mueller, the media, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, unions, Hollywood, Obama, Hillary...it’s never ending with them.

If you ever need to go into a fight, don’t take a Republican male with you. He’ll run if he hears a pin drop.

I think a certain subgroup is going for a Swedish style feminist form of government and it's not working out exactly the way they hoped.

I find it really interesting that they continue to double down on the policies that have lost them so many elections over the last 6 years.

Leftists/Liberals will not be happy until "toxic masculinity" as some of them call it, is driven out of society and we are left with soyboys.
Society has moved on and is moving away from the "brute" concept as being the definition of what is a man. No one needs that "brute" concept in the world and society of today... People use their brains, and the work with respect of others as equal human being, to reach their understanding...

The cave man concepts should have died out long ago with the cave man. Man does not have to battle nature in the ways they did in frontier days, heck... people don't even have to go hunting for food, because man used his mind and created farms....and ranches...
Nobody has to go out and prove they are man by fixing a car, or even changing a flat tire, they can call a mechanic, or roadside service.

People who want to play "frontiersman" find a way to move in the country so they can do so, but it is not a base necessity.

Its like work today, its not as it was long ago of arse and elbow in the air... man has made machine to many things and technology continues to advance what machine can do. Some Farmer don't have to sit on a Tractor all day, they simply use "GPS and Digital system" and the Tractors will plow miles of fields, as long as the fuel holds out in the tractor.
there is not a mass need of "ditch digger's today" it takes a few people running a bore machine, and they can lay miles of pipe or tubing in a very short span of time.

The old concept of a man as arrogantly aggressive and brutishly assaulting is not the modern day reality of what is a man.

Those who don't get it, only get left behind trying to recreate something that has past its time of being the concept which was borne of a previous era.

Masculinity is a natural trait of males, as is femininity a natural trait of females. Neither trait needs fictitious embellishments.

I do think it is better for kids to have both parents... but one can't claim single fathers or single mothers as not being able to raise children.

Our societies over emphasis on being sexual provocative, may be more the culprit that damages both males and females... it has damaged as much as, if not more than the self measure based on materialism and money; which has caused great damage within and unto society for centuries and decades.
