I just read this and I am not sure there is an eye roll emoji that can accurately reflect how ridiculous this article is. A focus group of 12 men who voted for Trump. I admit I am a 40-something woman, with sisters and daughters so I probably have less opportunity to see this, but I struggle to believe that men are feeling like they don’t have a place in society. They OWN society. What is the deal with this whining? Even the comments about how they feel like chivalry is gone because women give them a dirty look if they hold a door. It is BASIC courtesy. And since when are men worried about getting a dirty look?

Can anyone explain this to me?

They used to own society. Now women own something like 2% and they are seething about it. It's no surprise coming from trumpers though lol. White men are the biggest victims of the 21st century

The thread on gay men proves this. If you're used to being handed everything in life (straight men) and suddenly you have to work for things, you get mad. If you haven't had everything handed to you in life, you're benefiting now that societal values have shifted.


Have you ever met a man? A straight man? Why would you think they were used to that?

Are you really trying to argue that life in general isn't easier for a straight man than a woman or gay man? You are delusional if you think it's not.

I have, yes. I've met many straight white men who are basically orangutans in black suits put into positions of leadership/power because they're 6'3", white, and male.

How old are you? Just curious.

Old enough to remember when stereotypes held women and minorities back from certain careers, leadership roles, etc. Young enough to appreciate society's evolution.

Hon, maybe you aren't the best judge of how men should be feeling. Maybe you shouldn't womansplain to them that they own society and aren't allowed to struggle, to feel confused or lost. Maybe you could try listening with your ears instead of your mouth.

I have not yet read the NYT article but I highly recommend Hanna Rosin's book "The End of Men"

Yes: I can explain this to you.

You are a misandrist. A closed-minded misandrist.



OP is also a sexist.
