Male bashing is everywhere. It would be a mistake to view the current situation as another skirmish in the war between the sexes. Women have been doing the shooting, and men have been burying their heads in the sand, hoping the bullets will miss.

Throughout my life I have always been amazed that people couldn't listen to other people, that they couldn't hear their best intent, that there seemed to be an enormous need to demonize.

For example, the equivalent of a woman being treated as a sex object is a man being treated as a success object.

In fact, the socialization gives us the tools to fill our evolutionary roles. They are our building blocks.

You could make a case that women addicted men to their sexuality and then withdrew their sexuality until we provided them with a source of income.

So long as you create laws that define women as victims, as creatures that demand protection, that need bodyguards, you are going to perpetuate the very worst of our sexist past.

Is there discrimination against women? Yes. There's no denying that the old boys' network is alive and well. But there's also discrimination against men.
