Just a brief observation today about something I see growing
and
growing. It's the negative characterization of males, mostly by the
media, but in all aspects of society. Today's male, minorities
excluded since minorities are one of the protected groups the
politically correct see as perfect humans, is portrayed as a pretty
awful human. I think that white males may be the most hated human
affiliation since the German Nazi party of Hitler's day (ironic that
those people were mostly white males too). To often the lie is told
that if one is male he must be a “skirt chaser,” or “metro-sexuals” or
a “macho men”, or a hater and abuser of women. It's just not true that men are made in the image of Harvey Weinstein.
To make those kinds of charges against women today would be an
invitation for disaster. Yet, society seems to like to have a villain,
and in the west white males are the chosen ones. It is probably because
in former times white males dominated this society and excluded others
legally or culturally. They discriminated against women, but now most
discrimination against women is by other women or imagined
discrimination. The crazy idea that there is a war on women in the
United States, but that the nuts claiming that we westerners are
fighting women also they love Muslims and their women hating men is
bizarre until one realizes nothing makes sense in the politically
correct world. The real war on women is in the Mid East, not in modern
western society.
How many times in the media, for example, do you see men portrayed as
good-hearted, hard-working and self sacrificing men who are just trying
to take care of their friends and families? Not often, and if so the
character pegged that way is an outlier, a freak. Feminists often
paint men as evil and anti women. We are seen as "oppressors" I can
understand that false images from feminists because they hate men and
want to use them as a scape goat whenever it is convenient. But normal
sensible women should not create false images of men. Perhaps the
average women today has been brainwashed by the "I hate men" agenda.
Men have been perceived as the head of the household and women were
mainly housewives. Nowadays the differences between male and female
roles are smaller, however the mass mediums still perpetuates
traditional gender stereotypes. The fact that they can get away with
that shows that men may have a farther way to go to reaching equality
than do women.
