“Also people believe us men literally no matter what we say or how shit our credibility, unless we say we’re kidding, which is also 100% immediately believable, it’s unfair, why can’t we men get equity in disbelief, it’s actually stressful to be spitting gospel in every situation”
It’s harder when you were brought up to think that irresponsibility and selfishness was your birthright and now you find it isn’t. For those of us who were brought up to be responsible and compassionate, it’s gotten easier.
The tides are shifting for young men. They may get paid more, but they're not being taken less seriously and not being hired because they're not getting the skills to be hired.
Girls doing slightly better in schools is an emergency, a crisis. But the real-world outcomes — men still sweeping stem degrees and the highest paying jobs, plus the persistent pay gap even for equivalent credentials — why that's just the "natural order."
Ah, you poor thing. You just need a good woman to mop your brow, cook you a nourishing meal, and make sure your house is clean and your clothes clean and ironed when you go out to do your work.
But the loneliness. The loneliness only they could possibly feel in this modern age... With no possibility of cure... Except maybe work to make the lives of everyone around them suck more.
They don't even want to hire white dudes to drive the bus anymore! Believe me, I applied. And I could tell their heart wasn't in it when they hired me.
Hey the other day on here a man’s feelings were hurt when he realized that people want DILFs who arent men, and that was like, a personal attack against him or something
You know when you see something and think "well *I* knew what I meant"?
I've just read that back and either I can't follow it now or I couldn't when I wrote it. In case it's the latter, I'm agreeing with the OP.
Stupid brain fog.
But what I’m saying is true: the white people are mad every time there’s a Black parade, every time there’s a gay parade. We don’t constantly pointed out and say that George Washington was white. We don’t call it the White March 15 parade. This is the white nationalist thinking.
Attention Please
I didn’t know how hard this would be Not just raising three kids alone—but asking for help, and hearing silence. I’m not giving up. This campaign is for Lina—may she rest in peace—and for the three little hearts she left behind. If you can help, please don’t scroll past
And worse is being a white man. The cops not shooting me? Not getting deported? What if I *wanted* to have my life destroyed or at least irrevocably disrupted for no reason? Like, at least ask, assholes.
It's not that easy. As The bald men. Tend to proverbially beat everyone else on top of the head with a club. To assert dominance. As it makes themselves feel good. Then of course there are women like that as well. Different breed some say.
The strangest thing is that they never stop and wonder. How did I become this way? Was I this way as a child? Perhaps it's an influence which started around the time of hair loss?
I'm old enough to remember when guys at work complained about being family's sole income providers, while in the same breath rejecting or underpaying women applicants because "she's just not a good fit".
They didn't even try to make sense before, aren't trying now, but we are the illogical ones.
2/ Besides that sort of off-point story, working in HR we never considered family status when laying people off. Probably happens in small companies, but certainly not in big ones.
Had a male friend whose dad was a bank branch manager in the '60s. His mother prayer for $1,000 to help the family of 7 kids. Dad comes home one day with $1,000 - his severance because the bank thought with 7 kids he was likely to try to steal from the bank. /1
No doubt as difficult as it is to be a billionaire having to count and spend all that money, whilst also lobbying legislators to keep taxes low and remove employment protections. So, so hard. #Tired
One time, I helped a lady give a presentation. Everyone kept looking at me like it was mine. I was like "I'm tired of all this work" and sat down hoping it would make it clear who's presentation or was.

We're surely missing many others.

So the nothing I am being paid could be "more" only if an equivalent woman were being charged a fee for being unemployed.
I are become high
Us whiteys never have parades!
Brave.

Time will tell if this earnings equality maintains for them though
Gender achievement gap is one of the areas that have a clear indication that policy changes worked
That was it. That was the whole interaction. I didn't even get to film anything spicy.

That was years ago, must be exhausting now!
