Sure, we males appear to be getting the short end of the stick right now, but the pendulum can’t be going to the left forever. It’ll correct. I have 7 grandchildren, two of whom are girls. Not one of the boys feels he is being hard done by.

We’re guys…send a challenge our way and watch us try and overcome it, either individually or as part of a team…its kind of what we do. I bet most people think Testosterone is a violence inducing hormone. Its really a male social adhesive hormone…it’s what makes men men and what makes men work so well as a team, or as part of a hunting party or as part of a construction unit. Sure if violence is needed to achieve success it does that too but its real purpose is to get the job done!

I actually feel bad for what feminism has done to and for women.

The Pendulum swings!

Being a guy I was never anti-women. I hired people based on a lot of criteria but sex wasn’t one of them. My wife thinks there is a glass ceiling in too many pursuits. I have faced glass ceilings of a sort in my career many times and overcame them. It’s what guys call “a challenge”. I do believe women are the smarter of the two sexes overall. So why don’t they look at these perceived ceilings as challenges and overcome them with intelligence? A question that will never be answered.

Just as an exercise in pure logic, why would anyone who owns a business that wants to succeed, put a less qualified individual in a higher position over some one more qualified just because the person in question is a man.

If the answer is they wouldn’t than there is no glass ceiling (anymore).

Enter ESG: when you won’t get a bank loan or financing UNLESS you adhere to their dictats and quotas in hiring, or go bust. Forget the glass ceiling! Being “Qualified” - man or woman - means nothing anymore.

You are talking about merit and that has gone by the wayside a long time ago. Now it is nepotism or quotas.

I am sorry, I do NOT want quotas on who my doctors or my pilots are.

Agreed, but the left cannot have that because it eliminates their victim base. So on and on it goes.

“Victim base”—good term.

the new feminism that embraces Trans drives me insane. The whole idea originally was so that we could choose what we do, be it homemaker, a career, or both. The latest version of feminism is wiping out women and celebrating being reduced to a body part. It used to be celebrating women in all their forms, and as a full partner to men.

I read (and not that long ago either) that the real reason governments both large and small promoted ‘Feminism’ at all was by sending women into the workplace it doubled the tax revenue.

But regardless, I just sit back and watch. Lilith ate her own children and so does ‘feminism’. Guys in women’s spaces… hahaha!

I for the most part to laugh when it bites the liberals in the butt. However, most of the victims are children or the vulnerable. Like them putting rapists in the womens jails in CA, with all their equipment. The ones claiming to be trans to get access to more victims.

I am sorry segregate the Trans from everyone else. It is a blooming jail and they can do that. Those women in jail, 2/3 of them are victims of domestic violence or rape. Not to say they didnt do crimes to get them but they are already tramatized and they can not fight what is being perpetrated on them by the Government who is supposed to keep them safe while they pay for their crimes. They dont need Trans cell mates.
