Srsly?
No one is denying that men need some help (particularly in the areas of rape awareness/rape accusation and child support/custody), but there is no "War on Men". Women still need some help as well (in regard to crazies trying to remove our right to choose and other issues). Both of these face different types of gender discrimination. However, that "article" in OP is ridiculous. You can't just point fingers at a whole gender and claim "It's their fault. They've been raised to hate men" or "Men don't want to get married" (especially since the stats listed in the article talks about the priority of people and marriage, not the desire to get married at all). The link in OP is full of horrible, sexist attitudes like:
It's fucking nasty. He also implies that the feminist movement never needed to happen (because women had their own pedestal and there was no need for revolution) and since it did, women are not women anymore. What the fuck? I'm not a woman because I fuck freely and want to be an equal? It marginalizes the capability of women and the emotional sensitively and expression in men at the same time. That trash linked in OP is garbage. I'm not a liberal. I'm not "left-wing" or "leftist". I'm not a "your kind" or a "you people". I'm intelligent to understand that this is a grey area and simple phrases like "War on -Insert Gender-" often don't grasp the complexity of the sociological factors that go into these things. I suggest you open your eyes to the possibility that there is no war, but a nation struggling to enact social change as fast the we feel. There are some in this nation that are not comfortable with this change and, like humans, do everything they can to keep what they consider to be the status quo.

Quote:It’s the women who lose. Not only are they saddled with the consequences of sex, by dismissing male nature they’re forever seeking a balanced life. The fact is, women need men’s linear career goals – they need men to pick up the slack at the office – in order to live the balanced life they seek.
