not pop off but I have observed that when exiting the 14th street trader joes parking lot- it comes out onto the sidewalk - I have had white dudes get pissed off- slam my car hood, or just be visibly annoyed and NEVER any other category of person. none of the many women, black latino or Indian guys or even many other white guys have ever had a proble. if anyone has ever objected- its always only been a white guy. I think, they are just used to getting their way and people are used to acquising so when they don't - they are like "oh my god this person is SOOO Rude!!" but its b/c they aren't getting special treatment.

For sure. I also think there’s also a lot of misandry out there, and the Internet is feeding it to them as rage-bait. A working class guy who saw his father work in a factory, get a pension, and own a small house is now has to work two part-time jobs, live in an apartment, and can’t retire. Then he’s told that the world’s problems are mediocre white men’s fault. Essentially, everything’s worse and it’s his fault.

I'd say about 80% of the angry ranting people I see in DC are Black men.

You say that because you’re a racist, not because it’s accurate. The truth is that white men are FAR more dangerous and unstable than Black men. And the data bears this out.

yes but DC is a 50% and used to be majority Black city so this could just be an observation of that particular city. I personally have observed more white people in general just behaving badly expecting others to make room for them in the world and it is really annoying. This is why I am pro H1b visa fees etc.. anything so that people can have good lives in their own countries and don't have to come here they way my parents did. I am so so tired of being othered.

Karens rage at their pumpkin spice lattes, lol. Remember the Karen in NYC who tried to call the cops on a black guy who wasn't doing anything?

Divorce rates by couples go: lesbian > heterosexual > gay.

Who's angry again? Women live in a perpetual state of rage and victimhood.

OR, maybe you need to take driving lessons in order to figure out how to drive better. I'd be pissed to at some moron almost killing or severely injuring me because they don't know how to drive their stupidly sized SUV in an urban setting where there are many pedestrians. Get better spatial awareness.

This is factually incorrect. There is plenty of data on race and relative rates of criminality.

There is plenty of data on the characteristics of individuals who commit the overwhelming majority of violent crime.

Hint: it’s not women

Parents need to teach their sons to raise the bar, and take rejection gracefully.

Or simply selectively terminate most male embryos, which is a LOT easier than spending 20-some years raising a human being who despite your best efforts is still statistically probable of becoming a mass shooter.

Let’s be blunt about it: the human species would carry on just fine with 90% fewer males, and would be healthier as recessive genes and violent tendencies would be removed from the gene pool. Nature tends to do this with animals, as many males are killed in competition for breeding, ensuring that only the strongest males pass on their genes. Humanity could do the same for the traits most desirable in society, by ensuring that only males with desired traits are born.

This would result in a Bronze Age style patriarchy, where men all have multiple wives and concubines. The lack of competition from other males would allow them to live their lives like an endless porn movie and have zero motivation to do anything they don't feel like doing because they don't need to.

I mean, we ALL get angry. It’s what we do with our anger that is either ok or not ok. Our culture allows men to express their anger inappropriately. It’s permissible to accost women, property, etc without consequences.
Parents, schools, and sadly current administration allows boys to be criminal.

The problem with these kind of theories is that men today were born and raised after women gained these rights. They have never known a world where women didn't have the right to vote or hold jobs. And the decline in traditional male jobs is mostly due to globalization, not women.

Somebody failed statistics.

I think both men and women, of all races, have more anger and hostility now. I just think there is more social acceptance of men being angry whereas most women force themselves to express their anger in other ways (NOT always productive ways) to avoid social criticism for being an angry woman.

I think almost everyone on this thread is right about the sources of anger. Agree that the shift in gender politics and women gaining the right to work, own property, and manage their own money has left many men who were raised to believe it is their role (and god-given right) to be a head of household and take care of women and children with a feeling that they don't have a place in society anymore. I also think rampant capitalism in the US makes many if not most people feel angry at their lack of agency in life.

And then I think that political forces, especially MAGA, have found ways to harness that anger and foment more of it, to turn their "movement" into a rage production machine. So it just redoubles.

But again, it's not just men. It's just that men are more sanctioned to express it, especially via violence and violent rhetoric. But women are just as angry. Maybe more, because when people can't openly express anger (in healthy ways) it tends to eat away at them and get worse.

I think you grew up in a bubble if you think the men today were born and raised after women gained equality. First off, women still don't have equality. Second, in most of the country, adults today were still raised in very gendered, traditional communities where men were the breadwinners and women were largely responsible for kids and the home. EVEN if both parents worked. I grew up in the 80s and both of my parents had jobs but my dad never cooked or cleaned at all and my mom's job was treated as extra, or something she did for herself when her childcare/household duties were done. My husband's family was the same, and his mom was even the primary earner in his family for years. But his parents still viewed him dad as the head of the household.

People in their 30s and 40s today were the FIRST generation where many or even most women were raised to believe they could have pretty much any job and could be financially and professionally equal to men. There were women who felt this way before, but they were outliers, the products of unusually feminist and progressive households. It was not until the 1990s that it became fairly standard for people, even in small towns and more traditional communities, to raise girls to assume they would get jobs and have careers and would be financially/professionally equal to men. And therefore it is that generation of men who are contending broadly with what it really looks like for women across the board to have financial equality and independence. It truly is a recent shift.

Agree. It's not groups of men organizing "scream groups" to let out all their pent up rage. Why so much rage?
