I think men, and men involved in the Men’s Rights movement, are missing one major point about what is generally considered woke. Unless we start the conversation with women, we will continue to suffer.

Women, who account for half the population, emphasise their emotional state over logic, and that is how many decisions are made — through emotional reasoning. Words like man and woman are redefined to be more sensitive to emotional needs. Logical thought is part of men’s strength; it’s how we make decisions. A big part of the problem is that as women gain more control, emotionally driven decisions can have unintended consequences, such as changing long-standing laws associated with men and women based on newly altered definitions of these words.

Women feel threatened by male strength and higher sexual drive. They do not have testosterone and don’t understand the level of self-control required by the average male. Women are far more impulsive. In a sense, they seek reassurance and safety from institutions that now think through emotional reasoning. “I feel he is dangerous,” and the courts respond with, “OK, we’ll teach him a lesson.”

There are men-haters leading the charge — women who probably have good cause to distrust men. Unless we start a public dialogue with women using emotional reasoning, our society will fail. We need our say in both the emotional discussion and the logical discussion, like women have at the moment.
