re: What Did Men Do to Deserve This? (Another take on the so-called man/boy crisis)

Not really. I think men and women are all struggling right now but i attribute that to our consumer culture, increasing reliance on technology, secular values like materialism and the over destruction of community. And capitalism, naturally.
In general those are the same, but boys specifically have unique problems.
The feminization of education and the disappearance of all boys schools.
89% of public school elementary teachers are female (my brother is one of the 11% males). 77% overall)
This works for some males, but males are different even at 5 years old, for millennial males learned on the job as apprentices from other males who delt with them in a one on few scale.
The larger class size thats designed around idealized female teachers and students naturally creates a class of males who underperform due to being sqare pegs in round holes.
That leads us to
Overmedication.
Since the late 1970s Ritalin had impacted generations of men.
I know many men who's parents were told by teachers that they needed Ritalin, now its Adderall.
Both of those are destructive for anyone much less children
Females catch up on overmedication later, but from kindergarten onwards its going to impact males in negative ways.
In my field you can tell the ADHD males who were raised with and without Ritalin or Adderall, its very clear that those unmedicated are far more successful happy and goofy than those who are either on or have withdrawn from those drugs.
There are quite a few others (friends, fathers, role models etc...), but that's two examples.

Women entering the workforce en masse diluted the earning power of men while not (initially) really giving all those earnings to women. Uncle Sam increased his tax base but families haven't really benefited from this two worker system. Instead of just taxing John Q Public on his income of $50k, now Uncle Sam taxes John and Jane's combined income of $75k. J
Hey there - good post but I would add that one event in particular has changed our dynamic - the invention of the 401k an I am living through it as we all are
In the 60s and even 70s companies provided pensions - reasons to stay and guaranteed retirement pay. Also massive company obligations. Now we have to contribute to our own retirement eliminating the company liability and allowing people to pick up and leave. But these were never funded to the amount a pension would pay as a reward for years of service

That is such an interesting question, SFP.
Cubbies could you answer that for the class?

Also, from a factual basis - women are weaker than men and need men's protection (maybe not so much in today's world but historically- and yet you clamor for equality - we'll go take the subway alone or the bus alone or walk NOLA alone at night and see how that goes
And who would we need men to protect us from on the bus slob or walking NOLA at night (which I do all the time)? It ain’t other women.
quote:Oprah, Taylor Swift, etc etc. I didn’t claim women are incapable of earning money or getting rich.
I noticed you completely ignored my only fans post but these women are becoming millionaires.

How the hell is society supposed to worry about women when liberal women (who are the ones always whining about not being seen) can't even say what a woman is. I swear liberal women will never be happy until everyone else is as miserable as them.

And yet another "I hate men" post from Chubbies. Man, she really hates men.
She reads and completely believes “The New Yorker”. She is probably cheering the Mandami win, thinks the rich and upper middle class need to be taxed into poverty, and uses the words “colonialism”, “dog whistle”, “problematic” so much that peoples’ heads nearly explodes around her. She already has taken up the “capitalism is terrible” banner.
She is a slave to propaganda. So much of a slave, she will begin the OP with the first paragraph of:
quote:
The premise of the article is that men/boys AND women/girls are struggling, but since women/girls are generally ignored, we only hear about men and boys "in crisis."
And also posts on first page:
quote:
In what ways would you say women are NOT generally ignored? Research doesn't really support your claim.
And then try to wiggle out of blatant hypocrisy by downplaying girl’s claims of trans men in their dressing areas as “they were probably just washing their hands”. Yep. That’s all a locker room / dressing room is for. Handwashing. She brings so much hypocrisy that she actually does what her very first paragraph is complaining about.
Why? The propaganda “New Yorker” are blatant hypocrites as well by defending it themselves. And she bows the knee to everything they say without any thought. 100 percent, lock step, full and complete submission.
And since it is so damning to her entire mantra of being the savior, she continually ignores obvious examples of high profile incidents that her leftist Bible left out because it was “problematic” to their leftist religion.

Chubbies contorts herself greatly just to demean men and capitalism.
We get it. She hates both. Just say it and be done with it, but no. She wants the attention she so craves and she would rather have negative attention rather than none.

She never clarified the experience. She didn’t say she was forced to use the same bathroom stall as a man. I do believe she is upset about being in the same public space as a man. What else more do you want me to say? Offer her therapy?

What are you referring to? Seriously. Savior of whom? Women?

Public space?
Try sex segregated space.
You act like seeing a man or his bits in the fitting room is no different than standing behind him in line at Starbucks.
Again- I ask you where I've been hostile to you in this thread- you threw out the accusation, I'd appreciate you backing it up.

That wasn't the question.
I'm asking how you can explain that flip without institutional barriers causing them, allowing you to give alternative theories as to why.
The typical irrational-feminist answer (which I'm not saying you are making and just illustrating one absurd response) is that women are smarter than men.
Posted on 11/12/25 at 8:29 am to SlowFlowPro
Your original question:
This presumes barriers for one group can only be removed by erecting barriers for another. For example, allowing women to open bank accounts didn't erect a barrier to men opening bank accounts.
quote:
The thing is, with that flip, we all acknowledge that prior to the 60s/70s there were serious barriers for women in that area.
So how could things flip without institutional barriers for men, today?

Where? In your own home? Or did you choose to enter a place with a bathroom policy you find offensive?

You were forced to use the same fitting room as a man? Why would you agree to that?
Or did a man pull his pants down and run into your fitting room?
Is there a news article about this?

Ask the raped school girl in Virginia if she had a choice.
Personally, for me, when I enter a women's bathroom, fitting room or locker room I do not have an expectation of seeing men in such a space.

You've accused me of being hostile in this thread- I'd ask you to read your posts to me, you are quite hostile and with no reason to be aside that I'm apparently a substitute figure for your mother. You would do well to practice some self reflection.
