False.



I think the reason people are so depressed is the carrot on the stick doesn't hold sway in an instant gratification culture.

Two very different paradigms that the human brain can't rectify.

You may say, "then find something challenging to do."

If that challenge isn't instantly gratified, its not worth pursuing.

See the conundrum?

I believe in letting people live the way they want if its consenting adults all around and they stay away from influencing kids.

I dont see why I should pay for it in taxes, insurance premiums or in sharing womens bathrooms and sports, scholarships etc. Nor change my natural way of speaking and accepting twisted language.

Live and let live, but you best leave me alone and out of it!

Agreed, and parents should demand every right to determine school curriculum and bathroom policy.

Not raising a boy are you?

Let me tell you. They aren't little girls and should not be raised like they are. It's perfectly natural for them to want more active play and to gravitate toward action stuff, even *gasP8 stuff that contains violence. The key is to teach them how to control that impulse and the boundaries of appropriate not to tell them they are sick and wrong for it - toxic.

I hate to say it Jag but it may be too late. Too many men are jaded. Too many young men are 'turned' against their own sexuality and male characteristics to just flip a switch and be 'back to normal'. Add that to all the Covid restrictions and regulations, I fear there will be a great many more rapes and murders of women than in the past. Look at the Middle East and the massive rapes in areas like that. When you hide and suppress ones natural behaviors, people can turn into monsters. A victim themselves of all types of oppression. I feel sorry for many young men today. They literally are trapped in a closet. A closet of missing identity, loss of natural testosterone and fear of being themselves. Fear of humiliation and rejection for simply being male.

Let's face it. With all the 'isms' now a-days, men, especially white men have it the worst in our woke society.

This behavior of pandering to men and what men want to hear from women, "I am cool with the patriarchy, please allow me a high place within the hierarchy' is pretty common with women who think if they cant beat the patriarchy, they have to join it. It is letting down their sisters, and themselves. Forcing women into a 'comply with stereotypes that men enjoy and find acceptable or else get stepped on' is really behaving like a handmaiden. I get why women do that, it is a form of fear and weakness. It is not for me. My son is in his late teens, plays sports at a high level and is a decent young man, thanks. a reply to: ketsuko

Won't click on tik tok, it's the worlds toilet...

For those that don’t want to click. The clips are basically women pining away wondering why men today are so feminine, showing guys with makeup or wearing dresses etc, then they show guys from 80’s and before, regular guys in uniforms, or in suits looking very masculine. It tells me that young ladies are missing something, and they know what they have been missing. Maybe right now it is just superficial as far as looks, but I think it goes much deeper.

What about let people decide to live their life however they want? This need for conservatives on lecturing people and creating laws about how people should live is beyond dumb.

You are confused (no surprise, all radical leftist wing-nuts are confused). The vast majority of conservatives couldn't care less how other people live their lives.

So if I don’t believe exactly how you believe I must be under some masculine thumb? How very sexist of you.

You have fallen for the biggest trick of them all.

The people that are letting our sister down are the ones the are pushing this insanity that men should look, act, behave like women when that is not their natural form.

You are so right.



I raised my children with no government help. As a single mother, that ment sometimes working two jobs, I was lucky enough to live near my mother who would babysit some times. I didn't have a college degree or that debt. I had a six week course in soldering and electronics, which opened doors for me. My feelings are that if I could make myself a success, and my children grew up to be responsible adults, people now can raise their own kids, Don't expect tax payers to foot the job for their decision to have children.

Everything goes in cycles, including the feminist movement.


Yup, and just like women and cycles you'll get your times of normalcy followed by times of sheer lunacy.

Good analogy.

Please define the parameters of what you consider "the patriarchy".

Also, what does it mean, exactly, to "beat it"?
