Men... are u okay? What is the problem?

As a broad generalisation (and obviously there are exceptions), men and women are wired up differently. The Chinese were right about yin and yang. Both are essential.

The fact that men commit more violent crimes is directly related to these differences. It doesn't mean "all men are bad," that's just nuts.

I had heard (on this forum I think) of people who had to remove all their clothes to sit on the toilets.

These are questions I am trying very hard to erase from my mind 😂

Who are you that I should care about your opinion? No one! Move along!

Yes......

Apart from sperm, what is your actual purpose??

I'd love to know.. what's yours?

For any normal (female) human being, removing all men from earth which seems to be the ultimate goal for some, would mean simply: losing half of their dearest family members and friends, losing some of your best work colleagues, losing knowledge and support from half of the best teachers, losing PEOPLE who are just as needed and liked as the female ones.

Of course women can do all these things, but that's not the point, male in my life are as needed and wanted as women in my life in the widest meaning. And that's true for everybody I know.

If I had to pick a few people to disappear, I might select a few men, but there are quite a few female unhinged posters on this forum I would add to the list 😂

So few normal men, probably.

@ImFinePMSL Because they can usually sniff out incredibly vulnerable and insecure women who are desperate for love, affection and “protection”.

So why do those same women not go after a normal man for a relationship? Given the vast number of single men there are, and how easy it is to find a man who is looking for a relationship.

Still agog that some women remove their shoes and trousers to take a piss in a bush...

What job are you referring to? Be specific then.

@FernFaery And men don’t do any caring duties such as wiping backsides and bathing elderly people do they? So the feeling is mutual.

Wiping arses and bathing elderly people barely even qualifies as a "dirty job."

Who cares? All those men were birthed by women. What’s your point? Men invented some things while women were cleaning their toilets and raising their kids at home?

A great man, that so many of us say we have in our husbands, is still only doing what the majority of average women do every day.

This is so bloody true. I bet the ‘amazing’ men being spoken on here just did what is very normally expected of a woman. Things she gets no praise for.

I’m sorry to say my experience of men has been overwhelmingly negative, from the cheerful but useless types who do damage with their incompetence and laziness, to the toxic angry types seething with rage and resentment.

I work in crime and noted to a colleague earlier what an uptick we have seen lately in explosive male rage - men who just ‘see red’ and commit appalling acts of violence against completely innocent people. Like this charmer.

Yes. Very selective attention span.

Men are entitled to change their mind about having children, just like women are.

This sounds like a, "I want MN to let me play with the cool kids," post. Well, I'm a cool kid and I love all the men in my life. So, too bad for you, I guess?

Exactly this ☝Many men seem to have become disenfranchised, have lost their reason for "being". As women have become more empowered men are standing back and letting us get on with it, them taking the easier option.

Why I don't know. Is it because a lot of the jobs requiring strength, size and power are disappearing. The tough, heavy, dirty jobs that women would struggle to do.
I hesitate to say this but if we had a war would more traditional roles reemerge?

And men don’t do any caring duties such as wiping backsides and bathing elderly people do they? So the feeling is mutual.

It really is. Honestly, this site makes me so glad and grateful for my rational, lovely normal friends!

I have a wonderful husband. My Dad was a great man and he was the first example I ever saw of feminism.

But I am also a complete and utter misandrist. Women are so much better than men. A great man, that so many of us say we have in our husbands, is still only doing what the majority of average women do every day.

I can never get over on here how many women will pipe up with “it’s just a few men”. Well, no, it isn’t. When you look at the stats of how many women have been SA or abused by men, it’s not just “a few” men doing this to multiple multiple women. It can’t be, the maths just doesn’t add up.

There are lots of lovely, kind and amazing men, I don’t dispute that. But as a group they are miles behind women and they have a long way to go before they can be equal to women.

@shuggles I agree that's shit. But what I can never understand is why men who commit serious crimes seem to have absolutely no difficulty finding a partner.

Because they can usually sniff out incredibly vulnerable and insecure women who are desperate for love, affection and “protection”.

I agree OP.
It’s getting very very VERY waring.

@LavenderSkiesxo Firstly, years ago women couldn't vote

Neither could men. Men did not have the vote until after World War 1.

The other day I was driving to visit family and saw a car with its hazards on in the slip road... they have broken down i thought. Nope. A man was standing behind his car pissing. It got me thinking, ive never seen a woman pissing at the side of the road. We just wouldn't, so how do men find themselves in this situation? My dog can hold its bladder until "walkies" so what's the issue?

People have medical issues which means they need to pee more frequently. You sound like one of those people who can't understand why old people walk more slowly.

Second point is that men are less exposed when peeing than women, which is why men may sometimes pee outside.

I read that men commit like 91% of murders, most rapes are men and men mostly abuse their partners.

I agree that's shit. But what I can never understand is why men who commit serious crimes seem to have absolutely no difficulty finding a partner.

Men are more likely to commit suicide, men dont open up and speak about their feelings..

Specifically because women express disgust whenever men talk about their feelings.

some men transition to become "women" and fight to enter women spaces. I know women transition to men but you dont hear about them!

There are more women who transition to men, than vice versa.

I just dont understand. Men.. what is the actual problem??? Apart from sperm, what is your actual purpose??

I mean for one, men do seem to be massively overrepresented in the "dirty jobs" that women won't do.

I’m starting to think this after DP just came out with that he doesn’t want kids, after telling me he wants kids. I just think why are all men the same? This is the first time I’ve had a good one and he’s the same as the shit ones. I just think why can’t you be like my friends who are all lovely all know what they want out of their lives and men just can’t be fucking bothered working on themselves and working out what they want only to break someone’s heart because of their shortcomings. They’re all like that! I actually can’t fucking stand men anymore. I don’t want male friends and I’m seriously thinking about not having a partner now. Just disappointing.

That's really dangerously disturbed.
