The host interviews the author of Can Men Be Saved?, Richard Reeves, and it is chock-full of pathetic male apologism.
Women are outperforming men, that can't simply be because women are better, we need to coddle males and give men an advantage! Men feel unmoored, so we as a society need to use our public/personal resources to give them a purpose! Women are "scaring" men by critisizing them, women need to have more compassion and empathy towards men and not hurt their egos lest they become useless basement-dwellers. Boys are seeing girls succeed at higher rates, so they give up, so let's give men more visibility! 🙄
They also outright lie about child custody laws favouring the mother, how schools are "geared to help girls but not boys" (BULLSHIT), and that society is now "feminized."
I just can't with this nonsense. Women have been actively held back since time immemorial, society is against us, the educational system is still built around male needs, men are the default... Yet we need to "THINK OF THE MEN!!!" as if it's an existential human crisis. Fuck this shit. Women have NEVER gotten this sympathy, we had to fight for opportunities tooth and nail, and now society wants to just give free handouts to men because they're not up to par and being lazy.
I really want to hear what the FDS Queens and all the ladies on this forum have to say. I'm just raging at this bullshit!
The patriarchy has made it so that women have to work so much harder in life. That's why we mature earlier, nothing to do with biology but just oppression of young girls. When we begin to equalise, and I use the term loosely, society, men get butthurt because women do well.
Cry me a river.
Schools were designed for BOYS, girls used to be lucky if they got an education. If girls are doing well then that's on us, and if boys are falling behind it's because they expect life to be handed over on a plate.
