They’ll need it.

Again this is assuming he can procreate, and I say HE cause at this point we have not verified sex. It could be HE playing for other team thus no children, but the attitude of superior knowledge in child rearing. Or HE is a left wing sociology college professor which we all know has to be one of the lowest life forms on the face of the earth. [/quote]

It IS a he! The silence - aka STONEWALLING - is enough to satisfy my side that he’s male. [/quote]
He may be male but you and him may have more in common than him and I. [/quote]

Ha wait, the silent treatment is a male thing. I should tell my wife she’s doing it wrong. Also agree with it being a he though after the “women are violent too” comment that wreaked of MRM.[/quote]

We’re not talking about the silent treatment. We’re talking about stonewalling. They’re different. Men stonewall.

I don’t care to discuss silent treatments, which are not germane to the discussion as this clearly is not the silent treatment, as evidenced by the stonewalling nature of the quiet in question. : )[/quote]

As a father of many daughters, I’ve learned that completely ignoring a girl who is giving you the silent treatment creates the most wonderful and entertaining results.

I broke my eldest girls of being angst-ridden teenagers by the time they were 13 using this process and they turned into actual functional humans rather early.

Also pepper in the line “OK. Sounds great. I’ve made four. I can make more that look just like you,” when confronted with various ultimatums. [/quote]

Are you not worried every now and then that raising emotional healthy daughters creates a bunch of social misfits?

Well men don’t really know how to act anymore, case in point this kid hit the old man’s car and took off. The old man upset chased the kid down grabbed the keys smacked him some for running away and not taking responsibility for his actions. Notice the kid cries rape as his “ex”-girlfriend films it

If I were that young kid’s dad, I’d be so disappointed. I might even invite the old guy over for a beer and a discussion of where I went so wrong as a father.

That’s why I put that up here, if I hit someone I would have stopped if someone tried to hit me I would have laid them out I wouldn’t cry rape or have my girl call the cops, in fact I wouldn’t call the police at all

I am forever grateful to AngryChicken for recommending The Mankind Project to me in an email a long time ago. I have been participating in their work since last summer and it’s a great influence for any man. They have an “initiation” weekend for men over 18, but as far as I know, they have other programs and stuff for teenage boys, too. I REALLY wish I had known about this stuff when I was much younger.

After the weekend, on the drive back with the two guys I drove with (both of whom are in their early fifties and have raised two and three kids, respectively), one of the first things he asked was “Why isn’t this stuff being taught to boys in school?!”

Of course, Mankind Project isn’t exactly about parenting, but it’s definitely all about raising high quality men. I’m also pretty sure they’ve got a sister organization called Women Within that’s similar for girls/women.

If I ever have kids, they will be involved in the work that they do.

Also, Iron John by Robert Bly (another recommendation by the local pollo loco) is a wealth of knowledge about how boys have been raised in numerous cultures and time periods, a lot of which discusses current child rearing habits and what society’s doing right and wrong. Super interesting read.

There are several factors that lead to the masculinization of men in the current day, and this is what I think they are.

  1. Pornography and the over-sexual objectification of women. Because of this, men are, or see themselves, as, in some ways, beneath women, that they are some special, mythological creature to be genuflected and worshipped despite their inherent flaws that men have as well. With the internet age, many women have even made themselves into unpaid sex objects for men to dote and masturbate over. There are grown men giving compliments to women they don’t even know, or would NEVER be able to attract. This makes men look and feel desperate.

I witnessed at a very young age, more attractive girls’ inherent knack for getting what they want and having the upper hand over boys at a young age. Again, this puts men in the position of supplicant.

  1. An overabundance of women in positions of teaching, management, caregiving, and positions of control.

Women are disasters in politics and voting! Did anyone get that: disasters? Look at Germany for a great example.

A boy can go his whole childhood and teenage years with not much more than one or two male teachers. And then, couple this with the amount of fatherless households, or a household with a sap/half-pint of a father, there are very bad results.

Women are trouble-makers in the workplace, and many of them are in positions of control who enjoy bullying their male co-workers whenever they get a chance. Some are free from discipline. Why? Because… they are women!

We live in a society that is largely anti-family. So a guy can remain a kid for god knows how long.

I’ll continue on this probably tomorrow or next week because it interests me.

Push: Check the veg thread and the conclusions I made. I was waiting for you. :slight_smile: You will like the outcome.

Perhaps it’s the difference in jobs, but this hasn’t been my experience. You’re a nurse? I’ve heard bad things about them (“eat their young” type stuff). Over the years I’ve encountered the occasional bully, but they haven’t been gender-specific and I’ve had female bosses throughout my career who were delights to work for.

The only complaint I would have of them is that they tend not to stand up when there is conflict with male counterparts, which is the opposite of your contention. But again, my field draws fairly feminine women.

Registered dietitian, and I work with 99+% females. Dietetics is 95+% white female.

I also work with social workers daily.

You find them bullying? I’m stunned. Now I’m speculating that it’s about location, lol.

Actually social workers generally are the nicest people I’ve met.

Okay, good. My world makes sense again. Although I’ve worked in gyms and weight loss centers, too, with women I liked and respected comprising the vast majority of my coworkers.

The only odd thing about them (and I AM NOT PERFECT) is their sometimes misplaced compassion, But that doesn’t affect their job, just something I’ve noticed socially, like in conversation with them.

my oldest son never had problems in school with male teachers,women teachers on other hand he was in trouble alot,to few male teachers[quote=“BrickHead, post:231, topic:206944”]
