re: What happened to men and when did it happen?

“…easy times make soft men”

In an effort to make women equal, leftists (pushed by feminist groups) watered down masculinity. The more radical elements have attempted to eliminate masculinity. This began back in the 80s with the increase in ADHD diagnoses and use of medications to suppress certain male stereotypical behaviors. Combine the cultural assault on masculinity with the increase in access to porn, and you get a generation of very confused, muted, and passive males. Unsurprisingly, the incidence of clinical depression among males in the US is on the rise.

I notice you skipped over yourself and your own parents as an example of manliness, went all the way back to Grandpa…when did masculinity become an issue in your own family?

It is now gay for two boys to be friends.

From prior post

You are being rendered infertile (everything that keeps the birthrate down in our society is favored). Rethink alphabet soup lifestyle = no new kids...
By design...

Reproductive Problems in Both Men and Women Are Rising at an Alarming Rate
A likely culprit is hormone-disrupting chemicals

When you see or hear a reference to “the 1 percent,” most people think of socioeconomic status—the people with the top 1 percent of wealth or income in the United States, which is how the term is commonly used in our culture.
Not us, though.

What we think of is the fact that the whole spectrum of reproductive problems in males are increasing by about 1 percent per year in Western countries. This “1 percent effect” includes the rates of declining sperm counts, decreasing testosterone levels and increasing rates of testicular cancer, as well as a rise in the prevalence of erectile dysfunction. On the female side of the equation, miscarriage rates are also increasing by about 1 percent per year in the U.S., and so is the rate of gestational surrogacy. Meanwhile, the total fertility rate worldwide has dropped by nearly 1 percent per year from 1960 to 2018.

Irony...

So, we continue to wonder: Where is the outrage on this issue? The annual 1 percent decline in reproductive health is faster than the rate of global warming (thankfully!)—and yet people are up in arms about global warming (and rightly so) but not about these reproductive health effects. To put the 1 percent effect in perspective, consider this: scientific data show a 1.1 percent per year increase in the number of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder between 2000 and 2016, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. People have been rightly unnerved about this.

More irony
For those that do conceive, this is lurking (driven by epigenetic influences)

quote:

The truth is, these reproductive health effects are interconnected, and they are largely driven by a common cause: the presence of hormone-altering chemicals (a.k.a., endocrine-disrupting chemicals, or EDCs) in our world. These hormone-hijacking chemicals, which include phthalates, bisphenol A, and flame retardants, among others, have become ubiquitous in modern life. They’re in water bottles and food packaging, electronic devices, personal-care products, cleaning supplies and many other items we use regularly. And they began being produced in increasing numbers after 1950, when sperm counts and fertility began their decline.
Exposure to these chemicals is especially problematic during pregnancy because what happens during pregnancy doesn’t stay in pregnancy. Rather, an expectant mother’s exposure to toxic chemicals in the air she breathes, the water she drinks, the foods she eats and the products she slathers on her skin can enter her body (and hence the fetus) and influence her baby’s reproductive development. This is particularly true early in pregnancy—in what’s called the reproductive programming window—and it’s especially true for male babies.

Muh, gay frogs and other silliness....
Cant be true...

quote:

This cluster of related reproductive problems—for both men and women—is presenting huge challenges to the world’s population. There’s the obvious challenge related to fertility issues and the declining birth rate. But endocrine disruption is also a culprit in rising rates of autoimmune disorders as well as the growing epidemic of obesity and metabolic syndrome (a cluster of conditions that increases the risk of heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes). Some of these reproductive effects are even associated with an increased risk of premature death.

---

The frickings will continue across multiple domains...

With decreasing testosterone comes worse metabolic health (DM, obesity, sarcopenia, osteopenia/porosis, etc...)
Worse metabolic health leads to a frail, docile society (very suceptible to pathogens of all sizes...)


TDS - testosterone deficiency syndrome
TDS...
Synchronicity???

The short story:

Men must have purpose in life.
Women don't need purpose to live.

When men grow up being told they are not needed they commit suicide at 7 times the rate of women. That rate is increasing every year.

The first stats I read on this were before the feminist movement. It was a study on unemployment.
When a man loses his job he is 20x more likely to commit suicide than a woman who loses her job.

Man must have a purpose.

I always say that I am a huge pussy compared to other Gen X'ers, but these millennial soys make me look like a WWII vet.

I dunno. If you look at pictures of confederate soldiers they look like little boys with crazy facial hair. I think most of the WWII generation looked like boys when they were fighting over seas too. Most of the really ferocious stuff has always been done by young guys, and young guys don't tend to look like the body building gay guys that hollywood tried to sell us as heroes.

now these boys in the pictures also have awful fashion, but again, a lot of people have awful fashion when they are young and obviously the everyone is a little gay thing the media pushes is bad for that. but if our grandparents saw them and were the same age, they'd mostly be weirded out by their clothes and the lack of callouses on their hands from working outside, and not think they were deficient in testosterone or any of that internet age hype bullshite.

now that i think about it, when the french and english conquered the world they were wearing wigs, make up, and stockings
