I feel empathy for some of your points here, I am against all of the male bashing out there and do see that our boys need to have some attention focused back on them. It is like things go on a pendulum. Girls were faring poorly, so the attentions were put on how to get their confidence up so they can do math/science to their potential, etc.... there IS a shift, in education/society to take a look at what we should be doing for the boys.

but my question is just this: if all men as a group are hated, duped, cheated, etc etc are you saying that women are the ones in power that did this? Or did men inadvertantly turn on their own kind? What do you propose is the solution?

I know this is a poem, but you raised some sensitive social issues, got my mind racing. And mind you, I might not agree with everything, I certainly see your point.

Irony

So now you men know what it's like to be treated badly just because of what sex you are. It isn't very fair is it? Mara T.

I feel no empathy

all your words do is make me nauseated. You need to grow up, learn that hey, the world isn't fair and shit happens. Quit thinking that men are being abused by women because hey, it happens both ways. Deal with the idiosynchrisies of life and get off your fucking soap box.

Brief Authority.

"Man, proud man, dressed in a little brief authority..." surely when it comes to men and women and how they mistreat each other ~ there is enough blame to go around for everybody.

THIS IS HORES SHIT....

Men if you didn't commit crimes or abuse your wives or comitt Rape. you would get alot more respect. After all it is men that held women back and it is men who start wars and fight in the. And what more apprecation can you ask for? Consdering most of the time if not all of the time it is the men that is in charge, be it in ether a Super Hero team or a gang or even in the office. Let's face men pretty much dominate this planet, in addtion men are the ones that give them selves more power over women. If women gets to drive the tanks well ladeda, becouse the men gets to drive the big bad Mechs. Go on I dear you to count out all of the FAMOUS COMIC CHARATERS then list all of there Powers and who has what powers. And finally I aslo dear you to take your FAVORITE MOVIE(S) and seperate each Gender and count them out. Then finally I want you to pay attention to each genders rolls and there importence in that very same movie(s) (Disney DOES NOT COUNT).

SO DON'T BITCH TO ME ABOUT UNAPPRCIATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!()
