Hilarious that an article like this gets printed : "Women still need big, brave men. Too many of today’s are anything but"

The conclusion is interesting though. It starts off horrible, then calls out the double standards.

"This is a timely reminder that it’s no good demanding young men acquire manly virtues, if their female counterparts aren’t held to equally high standards. They can share bills if in gainful employment and they can offer up their seats on public transport to needier souls. They can even wield the flame-thrower, while their boyfriend’s getting the spider out of the bathtub. Real men (of the big and brave kind) deserve real women."

Men are held to high standards while women are held to no standards. Good on her for recognizing this

So many men predicted it. It's an ugly truth but no one loves gender roles more than women. And why wouldn't they? It largely benefits them.

Everyone can be a practice feminist in theory but women have it way too good to give it up.

They claim stay at home mothers have the hardest job in the world yet when there is a video of a stay at home dad women get jealous and tell the woman her husband doesn't love her since he is living the soft life.

When a woman proposes to her husband...its women in the comments angry about it. Saying its humiliating to have to kneel and beg yet somehow it doesn't click in their heads that men have been doing it for ages.

When women have to pay for their dinner or open their own doors (oh the horror) again women in the comments convulsing at the thought of not being a leech.

A video of a woman lifting bags has a comment section of bitter women asking why is she lifting her own bags when her husband is there.

On buses they make videos because men dont offer them their seat. Again angry comments.

They continously say they have the harder gender role yet when men are doing the same thing they claim he is living a soft life and she is being taken advantage of.

They say you aren't treating them right or respect women if you dont treat them like special little princesses

Women: "We want to be equal to men".

Also women: "We dont want to be equal to men".

Also women: "Where did all the good men go?"

Based on that title alone: No shit? You see, I studied what the "patriarchy" is. Feminists won't hand you this definition but a patriarchy is as follows: "A culture which supports itself by, first and foremost, gaming or cultivating male emotional investment."

Do you know how you get big, brave men? Cultivating male emotional investment.

Don’t worry, there will be another article next week about how traditionally masculine men are the problem and women are independent now

“Toxic masculinity!………where are the big brave men?”

Tigre_feroz_2012 · 2025-12-07T17:42:23+00:00

Women: "We want traditional men"

Also women: "It's sexist & toxic masculinity to expect us to be traditional women!"

Local_Month4012 · 2025-12-07T18:28:10+00:00

"Women still need..."? Men aren't objects.

RealStarkey · 2025-12-07T18:39:37+00:00

It doesn’t explain what the big brave men need

binkerfluid · 2025-12-07T23:29:46+00:00

Men dont owe you anything sweaty

Awkward-Taro-8633 · 2025-12-08T00:52:02+00:00

Am I the only one that couldn't care less any more what version of masculinity women want or think they want? I think we need to stop listening to them and stop self-checking when we do things about how it would look to women. Just do what you want for yourself.

danielm316 · 2025-12-07T18:34:44+00:00

How interesting that no one in the corporate media, even cares about what men need or want. And still some people say that men are privileged and women are oppressed.

B1G_Fan · 2025-12-07T21:35:28+00:00

Incentives matter

Is being a moral man the fastest way into a woman's pants? Or is being a criminal the fastest way into a woman's pants?

Well, these are the men left to them. The dad is behind bars paying alimony and child support. His family torn apart. Which means nobody is teaching their skills and trades (jail/prison makes that difficult). Which means less military personnel and boys are raised by non-skilled moms. The blue collared man has lost his job due to lies, accusations, preferred hiring of equal opportunity rather than skill, the works. Your average joe-shmo is automatically seen as a grape-ist, creep, threat, and something to abort. I mean really, what were these women expecting to happen? Each and every man (obviously generalizing) has decided on his own to refuse any kind of relationship now. It's not like we had a mass meeting over it.

So question for you women: How horrible have you had to treat men for each and every one to leave you in the sands of time? Men who don't even want what is in your pants or under your shirt anymore? I would have said such a thing was impossible, but here we are. You managed to do it. All that is left to you is feminine men who have nothing worth offering. This is what is left to you.

Edit: feel free to use this comment as you see fit. It is for free use, i supoose you could say.

More gynocentric idiocy….it’s so laughable….notice how she barely manages to include holding women “to an equal standard” towards the end of the article - after all the ridiculous moaning about boys and men….women are making it so easy to dismiss them altogether - and live without all their moronic drama.

wordjedi · 2025-12-07T23:58:26+00:00

OK so men are better than women at practically everything, when it comes to actually doing things not just getting A's in school and socializing and dressing fashionably.

It's why we have women's sports leagues, even videogaming and chess! It's why men voluntarily take the hardest routes on Uber and therefore make more money there. Applies to almost every occupation.

Civilization requires brave, strong, moral, virtuous, and grounded people, and lots of them. As we hurtle towards collectivism, and away from the nuclear family, those people are becoming more and more rare.

World-Three · 2025-12-13T21:56:59+00:00

It's so strange.

I don't want to say it outright... But women told men they didn't need to be strong, or go to the gym, or worry about the tough guy in her DMs, and that it was okay to cry in front of them etc.

Its going to get to a point where guys are just going to look at the most vocalized contradictions and say that they shouldn't have listened to them.

Men would still be strong breadwinners who dictated the workplace and made enough more than them to still be considered a lifestyle upgrade. Women made all this progress, but they kind of want the men they like to stay the same, while the men they don't to fall into obscurity.

Awkward-Taro-8633 · 2025-12-08T00:25:21+00:00

it's behind a paywall. Can someone copy the article in here? 95% of people commenting on it on every platform can't read it.

Prize-Let-2360 · 2025-12-07T23:50:15+00:00

Feminists don't want real men. Unless they're moving house. Or need their car fixed. Or want to drive their car on a road. Or want to call on the police or fire department in case of emergency. Or if their country is at war. It's all just so stupid.

I live in a large Western city in area near 2 college campuses. The young men here are shocking. I have never seen so many effeminate, androgynous, often seemingly gay young men in my life. The percentage of 20-year-old men here who are clearly masculine is shockingly low. My city is extremely woke and these young men have grown up in this context. It is sad and disturbing to witness.

I recently travelled to a northern European country. The difference in the appearance in young men to where I live is shocking.

Wayss37 · 2025-12-07T15:52:45+00:00

I mean, they literally say 'fairer sex' in the subtitle, which is just sexist. But hey, if you say "stronger sex" then feminist vultures will eat you, saying how women are strong too

Ecstatic_Cress9146 · 2025-12-08T03:37:11+00:00

Y’all are not brave tho. Most of you hide behind computers and think women owe you the world.
