Society's Contempt For Men And Boys

Barbara Kay talks about depictions of men in health care, modern life and media.

I noticed the media bias against men about fifteen years ago. It was a time when it was just starting to be inappropriate for any female character to be stupid, and that just left men, so just about every stupid character since then has been a male by default. It's especially clear in commercials where there has to be a smart character and a stupid one, it's always the man who's stupid. I don't think it's anti-male, just what we're left with when audiences respond poorly to negative depictions of female.

^same here. it's bothered me for a long time and also helped me understand the many fallacies of contemporary feminism. that's not to say women have nothing to complain about but the idea that it's gender vs. gender is ridiculous.

Compared to the plight of the female gender all I have to say to my fellow man is "suck it up, Tiger".


True, but I think that's missing the point - we should try not to discriminate against anyone. If I got breast cancer and got refused treatment because I'm male, it doesn't make me any happier to know that some women across the world are getting passed over for promotion!
