women see men as moochers, slackers

Women now see men as moochers, slackers who don't try to strive for success according to this news article.

There is a large percentage of young guys who don't strive for higher education. They often drop out of school or absentee fathers.

An article about some kids talking about gender roles.
Useless

 

[WaterTiger]

It's not useless!

Look at the ages of the kids, 15-17 years old. These are the girls our High School DJ are trying to land. These girls are going to be women soon and they have a very skewed attitude about males already.

This is just a peek at the future to come...

 

[MisterMcGee]

Riight, because no women have ever thought that before.

 

[strong like bull]

A girl would have a harder time getting away with slacking off than a boy would. A girl who slacks off is really unattractive, both to boys and other members of her community. A boy could still be attractive if he slacked off, and still have a chance at success.

right... every time i go to the mall i see so many girls having such a hard time slacking off and (usually) using their BF/Daddy/Husbands money to shop all day and pamper themselves while doing absolutely nothing productive for society...

such a rough life...

the article points out a difference between boys (even 34yr old) and men. one is irresponsible and unfocused, the other is driven and carries out his duties. there will always be lazy people around, male and female.

Strong,

You hit it on the head dude.. A lot of women do nothing to positively contribute to society. I mean when I was younger I couldn't care less but as I am a little older now, I look at it a lot differently. In a relationship I would MUCH rather take a 6 who has her stuff together (degree, job, car, place), than a 9 who is 23-28 and still lives at home, or has a place her daddy pays for but she's not working, etc etc.. too easy

Now read this and see if it doesn't put all of this nonsense into perspective:

Is there anything good about men?

This will open your eyes as to why these girls think this.

Yep, that was just about the most sophomoric and wishy washy interpretation of social dynamics I have ever read. It seems that is was specifically written to appeal to chics.

This is such BS. I was part of a group of like 6 or 7 guys in high school, and we quietly dominated everyone, in grades and beyond. After the girls were talking about who among them was going to be valedictorian/salutitorian, it was so sweet to see their faces when they found out it was me and one of my best friends.

So for those that think that girls are superior, it's always sweet to jar their reality by showing them a powerful man. Showing them things aren't how they think they are.

Men rock. Enough said.

EDIT: I love this quote too from the second article:

"Women are simply more likeable and lovable than men."

 

[picard]

Recent news indicated that the recession hit blue collar males the hardest.

Women are becoming bread winner in the house. The image of a man as bread winner is losing ground. It is no wonder young girls and women disdain men now

Guess that it is good for men that disprove the stereotype :box:

Here's the way I see it. Brute force is no longer POWER. Women have got it in their heads that because of Mutually Assured Destruction, that they will NEVER have to endure times where militaries are on the ground occupying other lands and raping the fvck out of the conquered nations' women. Because of nukes, women feel safe, in this day and age. This gives them the TIME and the fortitude to take us for granted. In the time of Wars, let's see them b1tch n' moan about men.

I think that's what we're best for, Waring. Nukes killed our advantage over women. It made everybody powerless, so the powerless, rise to the top.

unfortunalty there is many guys out there who do settle for mediocrity. So this article is not without its merit. I saw it many times in school myself. The stupid boys being granted with popularity and status, where as the more overall intellectual ones were looked down upon (more then often due to their own social ineptness it should be said but you get the point). I still maintain that an intelligent man is of far more value and general intelligence than a female counterpart however due to females generally being about equally as booksmart but very street ignorant.

Sad however that many men can see nothing wrong with this in the current generation. It kind of makes me sick that so many are happy being effectively neutered.

You mean academically as the article pointed out? Of course! Why would I want to spend my time and energy on answering difficult math questions only to get a recognition in a form of a letter?

I take my creation and artwork very seriously, and I could spend hours perfecting them the way I like, but no way would I spend hours answering a math question which has no practical purpose in my life. I'd answer enough questions to get me a C.

First, let's define intelligence. It's the ability to solve problems. as Robert Kiyosaki put it, and I agree with him. Dictionary definitions are not that far off this either. So, what kind of problems? Math problems? Physics? Problems are not just limited to academia, but also applies to real-world. If you have social problems, and you can't solve it, that means your social intelligence is lacking. Simple example.

These "stupid" kids are not at all stupid. They've got other kind of intelligence. They can't show it because the academic system doesn't allow different kinds of intelligence to show its brilliance. Did a school ever grant a scholarship to a kid who could do a backflip? I think that's quite an achievement to be able to backflip without landing head first. These boys are risking their health and sometimes life to achieve that, I think we should give them more props.

This article is very biased toward academic. It implies kids who aren't successful in school won't be successful in life. Go read about any successful man out there, and 9 out 10, he had started doing what he's doing now since he was very young, and 9 out of 10 occupations do not require you to be able to solve a calculus problem.

Seem to be missing my point a bit. For what its worth athletics are my go along with football, so I was hardly the stay at home study type. More I was referring to gifted people such as perhaps the artistic types, the intellectuals, and the flambouyantly creative get looked down upon because anything other then mediocrity is seen as unacceptable by todays men(more then likely due to it exposing their own weakness and insecurities more openly then before).

Further more it is not cool to be a drop kick no matter what way you slice it, and if you encourage being lazy then thats an incredibly deafist attitude towards life. Also most of these 9 out of 10 men you speak of form the minority not the majority so im not sure where you were heading with that. Not really sure why you'd want me to agree with you that academic mediocrity in schools among guys is a good thing either. seems a bit stupid to me. Ambition and charisma is what atracts women because it breeds confidence. Not stupidity and laziness.
