Reasons why Males are in the decline in modern society? Need resources

Look for books by Nathanson and Young, and books by Christina Hoff Sommers.

This is your bible: The War Against Boys

Additional Resources:

I'd suggest that those last too are trying too hard to seem reasonable/feminist-y and intentionally soften the message, but they're good for quick stats and facts. Lots of citations.

There's a Ted talk about re-engaging boys through the use of video games.

I would also look up labeling theory: more specifically self fulfilling prophecies. I really need to find my old text book on the education system.

I'm not gonna be popular for this but: This book actually has some interesting perspectives on the issue. It's not male specific, but it shows where some of the base problems come from. I'd have to look through the table of contents again to find you specific studies on males.

Hello everybody, I am new here, and for the longest time I tried to avoid sites like Reddit because of the trollish reputation of so many detractors and opponents of the MRM cause. But these are simply things that I have read in the past, and from frequenting here behind the shadows lately, I have started to see that this site is male-friendly. I haven't made a proper introduction because I have no idea how to start a new thread, so I will introduce myself into this subject.
For the longest time, I harbored the belief that we were living in some sort of "Matriarchy" or female-dominated society, but the truth is that I would rather live in a Matriarchy, where men will instinctively band together and eventually topple it, than a Patriarchy in which the men on top have set the standard what defines masculine social norms, and are constantly fucking other men over to cater to females. Male-led societies are destructive to males and they give no incentive for females to better themselves and take responsibility for their actions on account of being the "weaker sex".
Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that it is evolutionary for biology for males to be the disposable sex and compete to the death for females, while females are inherently valuable. Radical Feminists love to talk about how the Y chromosome is a genetic birth defect, or in other words, males are defective females, and that men are useless and disposable and have no place in a female utopia, but to only be slaves and sperm donors.
And what disturbs me the most is how a VAST MAJORITY of men are blinded by their weakness for females, that they willfully ignore reality and mock and ridicule other men, and expect them to "man up", while pandering to females. I believe that eliminating men from positions of power and starting all over by ensuring that women do their part will ensure freedom for men as a whole.
These are just my thoughts, but I wholeheartedly believe that chivalry is the real reason why males are on the decline in modern Western society. We are busy competing with each other and pandering to women, that we give them whatever they want and allowing to do what they want.
The State, namely the 1% of men on the top, has taken on the father role, and women have taken on the role of "Daddy's Little Girl". And getting rid of any Patriarchal power structure, and redefining masculinity how we see fit will ensure our freedoms.

the school system is set up to privilege girls and suppress boys' natural instincts. almost all teachers are now female with the exception of some areas where they have been unable to find sufficient women teachers e.g. advanced mathematics/science. By replacing exams with continuous assessment, girls, with their tendency to work together have been privileged over boys who compete. The sedentary nature of modern schooling goes against all the natural instincts of boys and causes them far more problems than girls.
Much the same applies at university where standards have been significantly reduced and where spongiform subjects have been promoted over real subjects like science and technology. Additionally, there continues to be a great deal of affirmative action, always favouring females.
In real life, law and family law in particular is increasingly biased towards women. Representation of men in the media is commonly insulting in a way that would be cause for programmes and adverts to be removed if the genders were reversed.
Males who stand up for men are generally referred to as misogynistic while women standing up for their own over-privileged group are deemed to be empowered.
In male bastions (engineering, fire-fighting etc.) there is bias to allow females to compete, with no such action taken to promote men in female-dominated areas.
In many countries, governments have "equalities commisions" and the like whose sole function is to pander to women. taxpayers money is systematically funneled towards half the population. This applies to medicine to.

Weird, all the votes are upside down in this thread. I guess that means SRS was here, the downvote brigade that says they're not.

Because we have tried to change our natural mating patterns with cultural lies.
