Lol silly lady.

Just wait for the canibal anarchy...she'll be on her knees, begging to blow any dude who can provide a meal.

I see Gloria Steinem's legacy is alive and well...

today’s men frantically search for past glory … in purple pills for ED, Low-T, aging cosmetics, magic solutions to belly fat … playing fantasy football over a six-pack … yearn for the freedom of America’s 19th century Wild West … hero-worship icons like John Wayne … the good old days when old-guy paternalism ruled

Wow, so its MEN who spend their latter years in a fruitless quest to regain their youth?

Somehow I thought it was women pouring billions of dollars into cosmetics, into plastic surgery, into pharma, into hair treatments, and best of all, age inappropriate clothing (40 something women raiding their mid teen daughters wardrobe).

Talk about projecting!

Lady CEOs. Lady bus drivers. Bag ladies. They all hunger for ApocalypseFuck Schlong. Even the lesbians though not IHLs. It's our secret.

With that kind of demand I'm shocked it hasn't been ground down to a nub by now.

Must be all those yams.

Let's see:

One sex is still doing most of the work, ends up spending all its time in fluorescent office cubicles doing nerdy STEM and IT work. Has to pay for the care and feeding of the entire family -- by law. And is considered "perverted" if it desires sex with attractive members of the other sex.

The other sex, for the most part, lives the life of an adult teenager. It can work, or not. The first sex will buy it stuff for no reason whatsoever except that it likes to "look at" the other sex. The other sex can sit around and do nothing and yet will receive call upon call offering to entertain it, take it on vacations or pay for a new condo for it. Although purporting to "cook, clean, and take care of children" all of those are mostly done by outsourced services. Paid for by the first sex.

Now. Who is supposedly in charge right now?

Yeah right? Oil of Olay, Botox Treatments, Fat Reducing Hot Pants? Personally, I'm happy to be slowing down a bit and not consumed with sex 24-7/365.

Speaking of Yams, anybody read Jared Diamond's new book? He said something interesting about Hunter-Gathers and early "Slash and Burn" Agriculturalists and Psychology. Their lives revolve around food and how to get it. Our lives revolve around sex and how to get it.

We're also in a weird time where older men and younger women isn't the norm like it usually has been. 15+30 used to be called "Normal". 30+30 was an outlier way to the right of the relationship bellcurve. The former, which was probably in play for 90% of human history, is now regarded as "Icky".

In other words, for most of history, all men were "SugarYam and Boar Sweetbread Daddies"

There are studies that basically prove the male is smarter than the female when it comes to innovation, street smarts and delivering work. Women have their own strengths, but not in leading the human race in those areas. For example, how many female inventors are there compared to male inventors? Sure, we're seeing more females in positions of power...especially at my company, but many of them are chosen to just demonstrate "diversity" in the work place. We have multiple committees just focusing on how to put women and minorities into positions of power; it's frankly discriminatory against the straight, white male. What ever happened to a meritocracy?

I will add that if men in general are becoming more lazy and not seeking out their true potential intellectually, then women could surely surpass men in achievement.

I have worked in the tech field for many years now and had experience with women functioning both as peers and as bosses. It has been a mixed bag, but no more of an issue than what I had to contend with from male peers and bosses.

But what I found most interesting when speaking to women I worked with. The people that have the MOST issues with female bosses are female workers, not male workers. It may sound cliched, but that is a consistent meme from my experience in the workforce.

Do you guys realize how sexist you are?
