When it comes down to it, I simply don't get why there's a culture where there's so much discrimination against the male gender. It's vexing and boggling to know that there are subs out there that would group and categorize men as "high or low value" on things outside of human control, or that there are facebook groups which disseminate personal information purely on the assumption that someone might be unfaithful. Or the plethora of what seemed to be one-off violent incidents that are now becoming more common-

What did we ever do to deserve this?

For the life of me, when I truly think back on and consider it; all that comes to mind is how men have, for eons- built civilization up from the ground, protected our women and children, raised and nurtured families- were willing to take on the dangerous tasks needed to survive. We've fostered good care amongst our communities and when it came to the point where women asked us for more, such as being able to vote, to work- well, they got that! We let them have those rights.

Even in times of extreme duress or danger, the thought has always, always been "Protect the women and children first". When wars are fought, Men go to the frontlines first. When someone, anyone is in danger- men are outright prone to diving in to help. I don't know why that is, but we have that drive, that want, to help eachother regardless of class, race, gender, standing, etc. There are indeed bad people and bad men of course, but I've never seen their deeds outright outweigh all the good in the world we've strived for.

So again, for what seems like the rise of civilization until our time today, where we've selflessly sacrificed and done right by our communities and societies; why has it come to villification for us? When were we made the pariahs, demonized as the wickedness of our world? To be called "scrote" or looked upon as intrinsically evil in some cases- where did this all start when man has lived and died to be the betterment of all, regardless of gender? How did all this hatred begin?
