war on men
An effete, whining, quibbling, failed bully of a cry baby seizing on the doggerel of a self-righteous, whinning, quibbling ninny for justification.

Oh come on now. Tell us what you really think.

At any rate, there is no war on men. ...and there was no war on women (as Barack's campaign falsely alleged).

Clearly, women disagreed.

Whether or not I'm a good guy or a bad guy is just someone's opinion that really doesn't affect my life one way or the other. So what. I'm not going to lose sleep over what people think of me.

Can someone explain to me the use of this extreme language within the American media landscape.
As soon as someone or some group is against something
It emidiatly turns into: WAR on something
WAR on christmans, for example.
Would be very weird if this kind of vocabulary would be used in german media.
Krieg dem was auch immer!!!

Then why did I spend the better part of my life practicing at the shooting range and learning how to prepare molotov cocktails, when all this time I could've been doing something useful? Like staying in the kitchen, looking pretty and having baby after baby?
Why don't you just shoot me, now that you've told me I've wasted my life
But the eternal dilemma - how can we be happy amid the unhappiness of others?
