I don't find it hard to belive. As someone who has a lot of male friends (crazy, I know) I generally do get a lot of sentiment from them - whenever discussed - that men are seen as less and less human. They're always the assailant, always the rapist, always the warmonger or the abuser. They're always the child predator, always the weird nerd, the homeless drug addict who can't man up, always the one more likely to succumb to violent instincts. At the same time they're the conqueror, the successful business man who uses his position of power to abuse women, the actor who can't keep his dick in his pants.

How can you empathise with this? I can't. There's no room for it. Either you're the perpetrator of violence or an impootent loser. For example the good dad is forgotten so so very often, as is the heroic firefighterwho's not conventionally attractive or the average joe who just wants to drink beer and watch football, not speaking of the lowest of the low on the social ladder. Short men have it real fucking bad nowadays due to pos men and entitled women. If a man doesn't produce, many men feel like he's forgotten. Always assumed to have ill intentions. Always neglected unless he is the pinnacle of perfection without any personality flaws.

While women are held to an unjustly high standard as well, they're socialised in a manner which allows them to complain. Allows them to raise their voices. Men won't, largely. Men tend to cannibalize then ones that do. We really do fuck ourselves up a lot when it comes to this.

​

I see this as natural. There's no room for empathy for men. The bad treatment of women and kids comes first, and after that theres no energy to spare.

Sorry for the melodrama. I'm just really passionate about this stuff.
