Yeah, all these statistics which only represent a tiny slice of life and for the most part still aren't actually at parity show that sexism is over forever! Just like how electing a black man ended racism!
I also liked the article praising the virtues of Homeopathic Medicine on the front page, today. Yeah, a glass of water's just what you need to cure that cancer! Fuck science!
I've always been frustrated with their sensationalize headlining, but some of their 'features' really take the cake.
The top commenter when I looked at it summed it up very succinctly, it's talk like this that makes people think there's no more reason to keep pushing for equality because obviously we're 'already there' just like having a black president means we're in a 'post racial' society. Bull Fucking Shit.
This sort of stuff also seems to make men bitter. If they feel they 'lost' then ... that feels much more negative than, yaknow, actually allowing for the idea that equality is ok.
Basically anything posted in the 'living' section is guaranteed to be completely worthless. Way too many bullshit peddlers find their home there.
Also I fucking give up trying to comment there. The mods are completely insane, I can't even tell what criteria they use for judging. They seem even more painfully arbitrary than 4chan mods.
Men have the choice to arrange their schedules so they can pick up the kids from school twice a week. And they have the choice not to, and then to feel guilty about this choice. I feel his pain. really.
Oh, Peter (and guys in general), I'm sorry we kicked your collective butts. It's going to be rough, participating in childcare occasionally if you feel like it and seeing other men walking around with helpful handbags. *patpat*
But don't worry, it's not all bad! Just because we women have ruined everything good and manly in the world, doesn't mean you can't massage our feet and do our laundry for us!
Yup, time to just sit back on my laurels and enjoy ruling the world. Our work here is done. We had this planned all along, you know. Suckers.
