Not sure if this has been posted but it's the most fucked up piece of shit of article I've read in a loooong while. Needless to say, it is totally feminist driven at the expense of us guys. Seems that nowadays, feminists can say whatever the hell they want about men even insult them openly and they will get all the exposure they want by the medias. While if the same were to be written about girls/women, they wouldn't see the light of the day in any media outlet and if god forbid, some unknown paper were to publish it, it would cause a total outrage.

And what's even more shocking is that it's written by a fucking man or rather, glorified mangina/white knight! That man should be burnt alive!!!

This is intolerable and utterly unacceptable! When are the men going to wake up and take control of things to put a stop to this madness?

Quote:#13 In the United States today, 47 percent of all high school students have had sex.

How's that a bad thing? And I bet that percentage is higher for the girls.

Quote:#14 The United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate on the entire planet. If our young men behaved differently this would not be happening.

#15 In the United States today, one out of every four teen girls has at least one sexually transmitted disease. If our young men were not sex-obsessed idiots running around constantly looking to "score" these diseases would not be spreading like this.

It takes two to tango.

"#18 Young men are nearly twice as likely to live with their parents as young women the same age are."

Interesting. Why is this? Are fathers giving rent money to their daughters but not their sons? Are girls shacking up with slightly older men? Younger women employed and paid more? It makes much more sense to keep a daughter at home than to keep a son.

I guess we can blame Beavis and Butt-head for starting this about 17 years ago.







...but in all seriousness the authors of this article didn't realize that women basically get their rent paid for fucking, get "extra credit" just for being young attractive females in college, etc. the list goes on. The author's willful detachment from reality is disgusting.

This list could have been written by "man up!" feminists like the "conservative" Kay Hymowitz.

On the subject of young men living with their parents more than girls, as opposed to the traditional norm which was the exact opposite, here's a partial explanation:

If you're a beta guy who's not likely to be having sex anyway, why bother moving out? It's the same disincentive driving video game playing.

Aren't you shooting the messenger here? Some of these stats are pretty worrying..

22 Stats that Prove I should really stop reading shitty internet articles in my spare time.

Post: #10

Nearly everyone is reading this post wrong. The author is Michael Snyder, the guy who runs the economic collapse blog.

He's not posting these stats to bash men, he's posting these stats because he's genuinely worried. He's a diehard Christian who believes in doing good for others.

Of course, he's a sniveling little beta and probably white knights all the time, but I do not think that's the intent of this article. He seems genuinely concerned about how badly young boys are being raised today, and I agree with him.

He comes across as a total Beta asshole blaming men for the problems of a whole generation. Men in the USA are beaten down. The girls are doing their best to keep things fucked up. Also American society descriminates against males. Males don't live out of the house because there are no jobs. They watch porn because they can't get laid. You can bet those two shooters never got laid either. If they had easy access to sex, I'd bet nothing would have ever happened. I'll never believe that the USA has the highest teen pregnancy rate on entire planet. Who is getting all the ass? I know a lot of young guys who can't get laid, much less get a girl pregnant. I don't believe one out of every 4 teen girls has an STD?

Pure crap article!

Did you even read the article?

The opening paragraph:

Quote:When are we finally going to admit that we have a very serious problem with this generation of young men in America? We have failed them so dramatically that it is hard to put it into words. We have raised an entire generation of young males that don't know how to be men, and many of them feel completely lost.

He doesn't assign blame to men... he blames "everyone". Which is pretty weak, but it is NOT anti-male. This is still a mainstream article that doesn't want to put the blame on anyone specific.

I'm with Samseau on this, it seems that people are adopting a position on how to respond to any information depending on their first impression of it as red/blue pill. If your world looks like this you are really limiting your beliefs.

This.

Is the author a white-knighting beta boy? Numbers 13, 14, and 15, with his obvious butthurt opinions of men not treating "ladies" correctly leaves little doubt.

However, many of the other problems listed are completely valid and spot on.

Sorry to say, but most of this is accurate information. Men in America are falling behind women by leaps and bounds. More manboys live at home than ever before. We as a gender are failing in this country, although, as Mr. Snyder notices, it's oftentimes that we are designed to fail by a broken system. Look at reddit. That is the face of the modern Millennial American male. I'm sorry, but it's true - we are in the true minority here.

Snyder's post here is mostly a rehashing of Dr. Leonard Sax's Boys Adrift, which, while certainly peppered throughout with condescending feminism and crackpot theories about being a "real man," portrays much the same stark picture of young men in America.

Long story short: fellow American young men, our generation is by and large failing at manhood. The reasons for this are varied, but what's important is that it is happening. Just because this guy looks like a fruitcake doesn't mean his arguments aren't valid. Ad hominem informal fallacies and all that.

Bullshit:

Quote:#1 Males account for approximately 70 percent of all Ds and Fs in U.S. public schools.

#2 About two-thirds of all students in "special education programs" are boys.

Male intelligence varies more, statistically speaking, than female. Larry Summers lost his job as President of Harvard for addressing this. The other side of this coin is there are many more male PhDs than female. Stats that are relative like this are useless without context and trend data.

Some of his points are pretty alarming though.

Quote:#3 The average American girl spends 5 hours a week playing video games. The average American boy spends 13 hours a week playing video games.

#4 The average young American will spend 10,000 hours playing video games before the age of 21.

#5 One study discovered that 88 percent of all Americans between the ages of 8 and 18 play video games, and that video game addiction is approximately four times as common among boys as it is among girls.

I was ranting about video games the other day on the WoW thread. 10,000 hours? That's about the time it's believed to take for a human being to "master" a skill. What the hell did boys do before video games? Work on the farm, learn a trade, play with kids in the neighborhood? Boys do this for the same reason beta provider game no longer works: our society has become so comfortable, we chose to spend our free time indulging in useless, escapist pleasures. The problem is then we go off to college and choose the easiest liberal arts degree so they can keep playing video games, or whatever, and then they can't get a job.

Instead of feeling victimized we should try to do something about it. Understand the reality and be a better father/big brother/mentor if you have that opportunity. Help out the next generation.

You lost all credibility right there. Reddit never has been and never will be the 'face of the modern Millenial American Male.'

Also, have any of you EVER heard a random guy who doesn't live on the internet use the word 'mangina' in conversation? I can't bring myself to say it, it sounds so nerdy. 'Pussy,' 'fag,' and 'little bitch,' are the terms of art. I guess those are too homophobic or misogynistic for the guys using 'mangina?

People here are so fond of saying that guys nowadays have no game. If that were true, why are the same guys bitching about hypergamy, about tall rich white guys having it all... Which is it?

The problem with these articles is that while they correctly identify that men aren't doing too well, the solutions they propose are invariably awful. And anything that women do differently from men is taken as invariably double plus good. Women delaying marriage because of their Very Important career in public relations? HALLELUJAH! Women moving out of their parents house to whore it up? HALLELLUJAH! Women putting themselves in debt going to useless graduate schools that make them cunty and childless? HALLELUJAH!

Also, numbers 6 and 7 are probably happening because whites and East Asians make up a declining share of US test takers.

This is a particularly idiotic point, given that more women than men having STDs indicates that a vast majority of women are irresonsibly having sex with only a small minority of alpha guys. Which gender consists of sex-obsessed idiots now?

Post: #21

One thing Im not liking is that the author only says how bad men are doing when im willing to bet the women are just as bad in some categories.

But I think the overall narrative that our generation of men are not performing well is true. However, he then lames out by saying "it's all our fault". That's glossing over the actual problem which is causing this, feminism.

Post: #22

The author is a rightfully concerned beta male. He sees men aren't thriving and is worried about that. He just doesn't understand the mechanisms causing these societal shifts.

#1-2: Boys don't do well in school. That's not good. But of course that's the result of the education system having been fucked up to accomodate girls and ignore the different learning modes of boys.

#3-5: Video games suck balls, but so does television. Playing Call Of Duty and watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians both are wastes of time.

#6-9: More of the same. We're not learning much and therefore we're not competitive internationally. Our prosperity has made us lazy.

The list goes on. Fact of the matter is the culture is corrupt. For having so many religious people, the USA has a culture that rewards values of the ugly and dumb.

Why do men suck nowadays, you ask? Why did they shine in the past, I ask?

When living a proper life pays off, men work hard.
When it doesn't, they don't.

Post: #23

I actually think these stats are good: the sooner the economy collapses due to a lack of participation by men, the sooner young men can become road warriors.

With 14 & 15 he completely denies woman any sexual agency or responsibility. He see’s thrm as doe-eyed zombies that simply open their legs on command and should not be held accountable for 50% of the consequences. *sigh/facepalm*
