Something is happening in our world that is as scary
as I’ve ever seen, and it has nothing to do with communicable diseases or
artificial intelligence killing off the world as we know it. It’s about the absolute disregard for one
half of our population because of their gender.
We have a full-on assault on men and boys in this nation, and
it’s got to stop.
For decades, Hollywood has portrayed men as nothing more than
useful idiots in our sitcoms, movies, and now on social media. Dads are dopes, boys are bad, and young men
are a danger to society.
The most troubling trend on social media is pregnant women
who are blatantly saying if they find out they are having a boy, they will
immediately abort the baby. What
infectious mind disease have these women surrendered their good sense to? Who
has convinced these women that boys are bad and girls are better?
Who has continued to perpetuate the storyline that women are
superior because we are women and men can be tossed aside at will when we don’t
need them?
Today’s feminists like to say, “How hard can it be? Boys do
it”
Boys weld things. It’s
hard and I don’t want to do it.
Boys climb into dirty combines to fix them and come out greasy
from head to toe. It’s hard and I don’t
want to do it.
Boys will stand on a busy highway and use a jackhammer to
break up the cement. It’s hard and I don’t
want to do it.
If you all want to perform these duties day after day after
day, be my guest. I don’t. But boys will and they will do it willingly
without complaint.
We like to blame the patriarchy for everything. And the anti-men regime’s name to hurl at
someone is misogynist. But why? Why are
we blaming patriarchy and calling them misogynistic?
Did they work too hard?
Are they paid too much? Did those
men who dug the trenches to put a sewer line in for your toilet mistreat you
somehow? Were their hands too big? Too dirty? Too calloused?
Or maybe it was the man who attended med school, who studied
orthopedic medicine and was able to repair a broken femur on my son who
committed some kind of manly crime? Was
he too smart? Did he study too
hard? Did the orthopedic surgeon make
too many right moves when he learned how to replace the knee of my 87-year-old
mom?
I know… it was the investment banker who called to let you
know your money is paying great dividends.
I mean, really, what does this guy have to offer? Investment know-how?
Seriously, he needs to watch his misogynistic investing or else….
I’m so over this man-hating nonsense. We don’t need to hate on one gender or the
other to affirm ourselves. We were all
fearfully and wonderfully made. There are millions of baby boys who are
counting on their moms to choose life, love their husbands, and raise them up in
the way they should go. And there are millions
of baby girls who will need those moms to raise their boys up to be good husbands
and dads. If we want to do something for
our future, let’s focus on that.
