I don't believe for one single second that all men are like that.
It's interesting though about how society potentially trains up men to see women as objects, but isn't that a given?

First time I've seen cracked.com - and have spent an hour reading it! Thanks, sgb :)

I liked the article when I first read it, but I also like this response

Is it supposed to be satire?

Or is it a load of rapey old twaddle that blames women for their own oppression?

Fast cars that pollute are women's fault cos the men just gotta impress the laydeez.

The men who control world politics and finance feel helpless cos they just gotta impress the laydeez.

The laydeez is talking boobiez so the men just gotta impress them cos mens likes the boobiez.

What the actual fuck?

And that is before I get on to men basically seeing us as meat they want to rape. Angry

Ahhhh that response is really good Widow. I enjoyed the first article because it's funny, but it didn't really relate that closely to how I experience the world. If that first article were true, no woman would ever have the experience of feeling in the way while a boy or man concentrates on his work, or his Playstation, or any other interest, and I bet most women do know that feeling - that feeling of being an appendange, of less or minor interest, to 'normal' 'real' life, the life that men have in the world. Whereas the response article strikes a real chord that I recognise - especially the one about being 'excluded from the category 'woman''. yes, yes ,yes.

I've already read this.

It's interesting, but rather too much "poor me, I have a penis and I can't help but think with it"

That response hit the nail on the head. Thank you WidowWadman.
