A friend asked what happened to the "manly" men of the past?

Is this how "feminism helps men too"?

Feminists, with no clear understanding of men and only their feminist allies as a reference point, never hesitate to tell men what is good for them so they can be good for women.

Men are not dispensers of utility for women; we are human beings worthy of full rights.

I have changed my mindset; I no longer believe anything feminism espouses. I have a healthier life already.

I never liked the "manly" men because they don't actually have much emotions and the biggest one of the few emotions u can have you arent allowed to act apon. (angry if you didnt get it)

Increasingly they're being raised in a single parent (female) household and sent to schools where the female teachers tell them boys are vicious vile creatures and civilizing them and feminizing them is the same thing.

So yeah. That's what happened.

I would think that in any situation, there are going to be women who want the status quo, and women who want something else, because women -- like men -- are not a monolithic entity.

A lot of it was media created. And the opposite media effect is in place today. Commercials overwhelmingly present men as weak and nerdy or even effeminate. The carry-through is also seen on sitcoms. Most men aren't in the role of traditional men. Why do you think all these conferences are constantly being held? To agree on approach and strategy...And that's what's going on.

The amount of single mothers raising boys to men with a feminist mindset is the reason.

The "manly" men of the past faced most of the same social ills we do today. This is /r/mensrights, not /r/traditionalism.

Its so BIG!

The "manly" men are gone, having gone through testicle amputations at the hands of feminists and the feminist lobby all around the world.

Feminism itself is to blame for this.

This is the problem with feminism, they want everyone else to change.

everyone else needs to accommodate women

everyone else should help, safeguard or protect women

They take no responsibility when drunk No responsibility for career choices And when it doesn't turn out the way they like ... Bicht non stop about it

Edit: tl;dr feminism tries to get men to change and berates then for not doing so to their liking instead of inspiring / motivating or leading women to equality ( because that's obviously harder)

chocoboat · 2013-09-19T05:05:15+00:00

Hey, before you jump all over this... they didn't say what to change your mindset to. Let's change everyone's mindset to "we're not going to tolerate inequality", how does that sound?
