    Man I’d hate being a young man today.

    Guys are put in a position where they have to put themselves out there and face rejection. it’s obviously becoming harder to connect with women given that a larger and larger percentage of men under 21 report being virgins every year.

    Then as a result of being in this sad but common position you get told that it’s all your fault and you’re a shitty person.

    I think I would have just ended up killing myself if I was a teenager today.

      Women had to adjust to be expected to work and do housework, still make less money per hour of labor, still represent the minority of ceos/leaders/comfy asshole billionaires, way more likely to be the ones in danger physically when picking a partner incorrectly, but go on guys about how life is so hard for you. Sounds like most of you are considerably less able to adapt than the women around you.

            Still doesn’t mean it’s not an issue, not talkign about problems doesn’t mean they don’t exist. When you shut up about issues they won’t improve

              yeah I think the sad part to me is that it seems the majorty of the men aren’t realizing that the issue is the rich guy drank their milkshake. I’m extra angry in this comment chain, because I’m simultaneously being told in another comment that the reason men are slipping is that ‘women have too many resources’.

              Men have a choice. Join with women and fight the rich, or blame women and let’s go to war.

                I think a quite a few people actually agree with your point, but you just seem a bit too aggressive in the other comments but idk
