Women Should Beware the Male Spinster

Story is here.

First, minding one's own business is a virtue.

Secondly, different people have different definitions of happiness and snearing, petty and overweening articles such as this one are no doubt born out of envy of the free man by those who are stuck in marriages whose expiration date has long passed and where the only exit is through a courtroom. It is like the old joke you hear from comedians: he should be miserable like the rest of us [by getting married]. No thanks.

After breaking up a three year relationship, I have dropped out of the dating market because I want to be selfish with my time. I have a lot of different interests, a web site to tend to and I don't have to worry about pleasing anyone other then myself. And I cannot be happier.

Now maybe somewhere down the road I might want to start dating again, but then again, maybe not. My life is mine and I don't owe it to anyone else to live it a certain way in order to submit to their absurdly outsized control freak tendencies.

Feminists Are the Majority (Answeting My Original Post)

This is a response to my reply to a story that is here.

So what you're saying is that men are incapable of thinking for themselves and just let themselves get caught up in a tide of personal convenience. Thanks. As a leftwing white male, I really appreciate that bit of condescension.

The fact of the matter is that with wages being stagnant for the better part of two decades, men are not doing that well and fewer and fewer can support a family on just one income. Yeah, that is due to GOP policies, but the fact is also that feminists have demonized men while white men are also demonized by the party's black caucus. And since the Democratic Party has essentially become a woman's party, working class white males have increasingly abandoned our party because they are feeling less and less welcome.

It is thus up to not only the party leadership, but to the feminist and ethnic coalitions in the party to initiate a rapproachment with white working class males and address their concerns, their feelings and concretely demonstrate that they are indeed welcome and cherished within the party.

Are "Lad Mags" To Blame For Absent Fathers And Sexism?

Story is here.

A conservative talking about sexism? That's a laugh! Aren't these the same types who endorse the Christian viewpoint of a woman submitting to her husband? Aren't they the same folks who endorse tens of millions in salary and golden parachutes for corporate CEOs while average workers have to struggle on stagnant wages? Conservatives talk about family values, but they just don't want to make it possible for mothers to stay at home with their children by paying wages you can actually support a family on.

Please, This is just a song and dance for these phony conservative groups to raise money with. They have no intention of changing things to actually make things more amiable for families to grow and prosper.

They are also demonizing men, too, propounding that we are too stupid to understand that men's magazines are entertainment and little more. Adultery, polygamy, domestic violence and rape came along thousands of years before Maxim.

Really, his words are just blather and nothing more.
