Read the article. It tries to have it both ways. It both acknowledges (rightfully) that women deserve a place at the table in a career, but, it also implicitly blames them for these men's woes and extols "traditional masculinity", which needs to go away as a cultural concept.
Don't get me wrong, it's fine to have a masculine culture and a feminine culture. People will always want an identity. But, the idea that a man should make the money and the woman should be secondary needs to die. It's a breeding ground for rewarding mediocrity and punishing women for being women.
Here's the difference...you know it smacks of patriarchy when there must be someone to blame,control,overcome-and it's ALWAYS women.It's always women that have to pick up the slack (men call it the "glue")it's F-ing exhausting and women are no longer standing for it!
Come to think of it ...it's probably the loss of free labor that women have always provided..and are now refusing to...that piss off men like trump the most.
Yup. And the fact that women are identifying toxic traits and avoiding them now. Some men simply don't want to change. They want the world to continue to cater to their mediocrity. They'd rather find a dictator to retire them to power than to improve themselves.
Well said...and it's a shame...cuz there are many of us out here that really like men..well...many aspects of them. But you know you have a problem when women feel safer being alone in the woods with a bear than a man 😬
Yup. And the fact that so many men reacted not with "shit, then we gotta make it so women feel safer around men" but with "what the hell is wrong with women" proves the point perfectly.
And also....I never thought I'd say this..but..what can women do if Republicans make it easier to arm yourself than find mental healthcare? 🤷Just sayin'...it might, sadly..be getting to that time
That was super shortsighted of them. Sure, they were probably hedging their bets in case they never got this level of power, but, it could prove to be their downfall.
I wish I could say turn about would be fair play..and actually happen! ..but some people don't possess that much hate in their hearts.. thankfully...but there's no harm in being prepared 😏🤣💪
Absolutely no harm at all in being prepared.
🤦😩
And women shouldn't stand for it. They should be allowed to be the head of the household and/or primary earner of their skill set is better suited to that than their partner. And men need to be okay with that and not take it as an assault on their honor.
And men need to stop blaming women when they are lonely or can't compete in their career.
Boom! The backlash to what maga calls DEI is really just the whining of mediocre (usually yt) men that are po'd now that they have to compete against people that, thanks to racism and sexism,used to have one arm tied behind their back.MAGAts answer to it?..just fire any women or POC in government!
And erase their accomplishments so, in the future, mediocre yt men can pretend they've always been better than everyone else.
Exactly!! 💯...so the question is ..has this ever actually worked? Will this bullshit die with trump like it did with Hitler? Next question is how many more people will die as a result..😩
I can see now that that was a stupid question cuz.. ITS ALWAYS F-ing WORKED!!...Had to zoom out for a minute ..dayum
It's worked, but, not perfectly. There are always people who bring up the truth even in the most authoritarian countries. There were massive protests in Georgia and there was Arab spring. Eventually, the truth teller win against the oppressive regimes.
Here's hoping 🤞
Hmmm...I smell nationwide strike 😏
It's the best medicine for a capitalist nation. If money is everything, that also becomes the Achilles heel.
It worked in North Korea. But, trying to erase an entire nation's history is hard to maintain and requires constant use of force. I don't know how many will diw and that scares me.
It seems we are at the beginning of the "constant use of force" no?... that phrase sends shivers down my spine 😬
Not to the degree of North Korea. But, yeah, we are definitely heading in the direction of the constant use of force.
My thoughts went to The Lost Cause and how we've never really gotten rid of that BS...so yeah..I guess it actually has actually has always worked on some people..hence out current spot in history 😩
Yeah, unfortunately, you can fool some of the people all the time.
Instead, let's head into a new kind of economy where we invest in people and reward them for doing the things they are naturally drawn to. But, that means not just the market but our entire culture has to change.
Here here 👏👏👏
