History of Feminism

maybe just not here.

"To be a man..." doesn't simply mean kicking ass and hiding tears, although that's a small part of it, but it also means solving the problem instead of complaining about it, assaying truth, pursuing justice, and protecting the weaker men and women in society. Among many other things that are not at all unique to men.

It's more like being an adult of any gender.

Now, the video, like so many of these, doesn't even begin to address the changing roles of men and women in society and how boys are often being left in the wind with sorry-ass platitudes instead of direction.

Women have made great strides recently, and that's a good thing, but while we've been working hard on bringing women into the 21st century, we haven't come up with any solutions to boys, having lost the model of the two-parent working father family, will go on with life. Employment prospects are pretty dim with all those primarily male construction, manufacturing and mining jobs gone. Smart boys can be directed toward engineering and such, but what about the less endowed ones who would in the past be mechanics or steelworkers with jobs good enough to pay for a family? How are we raising our boys to deal with this dismal future they may face? Are we preparing them for a life where their wives are the breadwinners in sales jobs or law offices?

At least they have basketball.
