<p>Ironically enough, I came across this <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/meg_jay_why_30_is_not_the_new_20.html">link</a> on Facebook. This short Video is Clinical Psychologist <a href="http://www.ted.com/speakers/meg_jay.html">Meg Jay</a> presenting some truths from her book “The Defining Decade.” I have to say that while Meg didn’t touch on many red pill topics, she did go over some realities on how most Western 20-somethings view their lives and how complacency can lead to a not so compelling future.  While some denizens of the Manosphere may not appreciate how much she focuses on 20 something women rather than men, I believe that her message is very valuable nonetheless.</p>
<p>Let’s be honest gang, the years between 20 and 30 are far more important to women than they are to men. <a href="http://youngmanredpill.wordpress.com/2013/05/11/men-and-women-have-different-prime-sexual-years-is-there-a-solution/">A man hasn’t even reached his peak during this time while a woman’s SMV and fertility peaks and starts to decline during this important decade.</a> She speaks about how women should actually take the time to be mindful of the choices they make during this valuable time and how quickly it can fade if she isn’t careful.</p>
<p>Listen gang, our forebears had a large sense of urgency to marry and have kids as the world carried harsh penalties for those who didn’t plan adequately. I can remember a comment on The Spearhead long ago lamenting why a woman in a backwoods hut in a 3<sup>rd</sup> world country seems to have a better idea about her fertility and value to a man than an educated woman living in a first world country. The reason simply is that current Western technological advances and our relatively ‘cushy’ lives have eliminated many of the negative consequences, which spurred on our ancestors.  The 3<sup>rd</sup> world woman HAS to keep abreast of her value since her life still depends on finding a decent man. Western Woman, not so much which is why so much complacency has set in.</p>
<p>All in all, Meg does a good job of stating some truths many Western Women are in dire need of hearing. Maybe the mainstream media is picking up on the fact that carousel hopping <a href="http://heartiste.wordpress.com/2013/03/13/woman-admits-to-alpha-fux-beta-bux-dating-strategy/">may not be the most beneficial manner in which a woman can <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">waste</span> spend her prime years.</a> I’m hoping that many women take to heart her message and heed her warning. However…I’m not holding my breath, most women <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/03/10/it-happened-to-a-friend-of-a-friend-of-mine/">never consider</a> such a sad fate ever befalling them.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Been a while gang, sorry for the delay. Just trying to get back into the swing of things at work after a long absence. Now, some may say that I’m jumping onto this bandwagon a little late, but I disagree. The point I wish to illuminate is something that I’ve <b>been stating for a while now</b> in terms of trying to show women the issues behind feminism.  As I’ve said before; women <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2013/03/28/condense-the-nonsense/">won’t listen</a> to any man stating the obvious downfalls of the Feminist movement while stating how it negatively affects men. No gang, if you wish to drive the point home you need to hit ‘em where it hurts. Namely, how it will affect <em><strong>them </strong></em>negatively.</p>
<p>I believe this post comes at a very timely juncture, during the fact that the Toronto Maple Laffs…I mean Leafs have made it to the playoffs for the first time in<b> <a href="http://www.thestar.com/sports/leafs/2012/03/28/the_maple_leafs_last_playoff_run_its_been_a_while.html">years</a>!!</b> I had <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2012/03/14/what-do-the-toronto-maple-laffs-feminism-and-western-women-have-in-common/">already explained</a> their dismal performance in the past, but everyone needs to revisit why their bleak performance is relevant to anyone on the Manosphere. To quickly recap my post on the topic; the Leafs lose nothing by being perennial losers in the NHL. They are <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_Maple_Leafs">STILL</a></b>the most profitable hockey team in the league no matter what they do, win, lose, or draw. The <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/05/14/welcome-to-the-jungle-part-one-incentive/">reward/penalty</a> paradigm doesn’t seem to affect them for one reason or another, so there is no driving force for them to seek in order to put wins on the board because the fans will pay <b>large</b> prices regardless.</p>
<p>I could be wrong, but if I where a betting man, I would say that the Leafs WON’T win the Stanley Cup, yet their balance sheet still wont be negatively affected regardless <a href="http://www.thestar.com/sports/raptors/2013/03/12/raptors_ticket_prices_to_increase_next_season.html">next season</a>. At this point, all the extra money the <b>owners</b> rake in is simply gravy. Bluntly, no negative consequences or penalty to avoid exist, so there&#8217;s <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/05/14/welcome-to-the-jungle-part-one-incentive/">no reason</a> to add extra effort or change what may not be working.</p>
<p>So, what has this got to do with the Manosphere and Feminism you may ask?</p>
<p>Here we have a few links of some die-hard Feminists and/or entitled Western Women now reconsidering their previous ways. However, the main question we all need to ask is WHY!! Why is it that after all the criticizing that men have done over the years, why after all the times we have tried to show them how mankind is hurting, and why after we have tried to start a dialog that these women have finally stopped and are now reconsidering their past choices?</p>
<p>Simply put…because Feminism, which bestowed these women with so many benefits at the expense of men, has now imparted some negative penalties onto these same women, which they thought themselves insulated <b><i>from</i></b>.  Mothers who are now grandmothers who had kept the birth fathers from their children now realizing that younger women can use this <a href="http://www.avoiceformen.com/women/custodial-mother-karma/"><b>same</b> power</a> against their younger sons!! Essentially keeping them away from seeing their grandchildren.</p>
<p>Powerful Feminists who have championed the cause of women, now realizing just how much power, which women can abuse for frivolous reasons now that this situation has <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2013/04/18/formerly-feminist-lawyer-wakes-up-after-son-put-through-wringer-by-college-rape-troika/">befallen their own male children</a>. In addition, other influential Feminists hearing the truth <a href="http://dalrock.wordpress.com/2013/04/30/remaking-the-princess-evicting-the-prince/">from the mouth of babes </a>and possibly realizing that their grrl powa may have gone just a bit too far.</p>
<p>This is the point I wish to drive home to all who read The Phantom Tollbooth. If you want to get a woman to think twice about Feminism, hit ‘em where it hurts’ namely, how it will (and I mean will) eventually affect them negatively.  These women are now second-guessing their life’s work, and others are simply aghast that the power that they had abused when they where younger could POSSIBLY be used by another woman against their own male child. TFH always states that women by and large have a poor grasp of cause and effect, this post and the links provided seem to add credence to his statement.</p>
<p>It seems funny and sad in a way that so many Western Women seem to enjoy their current power over men but never even consider that another woman could use that SAME power <b><i>against</i></b> their bothers, fathers, uncles, or sons. Had any one of the many false rape apologists, beneficiaries of ‘frivorce’ and affirmative action considered what they where doing to other innocent brothers, fathers uncles or sons of other women?</p>
<p>This is the main push of this post; they didn’t because they never faced any negative consequences for doing so&#8230;yet. It never affected their personal household or sphere of influence. Therefore so many Western Women and Feminists will continue to bray on about their so-called ‘Patriarchal Victimization’ until they personally feel the sting of Female entitlement when it hits THEM negatively. The biggest negative that they will have to face; when many men may dismiss their positions and ask them to justify their previous positions.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I encountered this <a href="http://youngmanredpill.wordpress.com/2013/03/30/why-the-manosphere-exists-in-one-post-for-beginners/" target="_blank">brilliant post</a> by Keanu on <a href="http://youngmanredpill.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Youngmanredpill</a> talking about why it was the Manosphere is currently in existence. Why so many men are seeking it out while looking for a safe place to provide answers. His post even answered why so many of them are so angry due to their past. It’s a primer written in response to a query by a young female reader of his. I was going to comment but it turned into this current post. Keanu wrote why younger men seek out the Manosphere, but allow me to shed some light as to why older men have sought it as well.</p>
<p>You see, older denizens of the Manosphere started out just like Keanu had pointed out, but the injustice doesn’t stop there. Their issues carried on well into marriage and adulthood and these same issues are something Western men have to face every day of their lives. I feel the need to follow the same vein that Keanu started so I will relate <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2010/10/14/misogyny-origin-story/" target="_blank">my own tale</a> as well as the tales of some friends of mine to prove my point. They have had to face the feminized justice system, which in turn has made them quite angry.</p>
<p>You see, after many men suffer from the brutal dating market as Keanu pointed out, then they have to face a feminized society as they marry, rear children and start a family. The mainstream media has bought into the ‘Man bad, woman good’ paradigm hook, line, and sinker so men are on the hot seat before things even get started. In the event that a man has legitimate beefs with his partner in a marriage, you can bet your bottom dollar that his issues will not only be ignored, <a href="http://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/05/12/washington-post-fembot-tells-cuckold-suck-it-up/" target="_blank">but he will be vilified for having them</a> in the first place. Men are essentially told that their jobs are to sit down, shut up, and provide for a woman despite her shortcomings. They are then told that they are LUCKY to have this woman in their lives so their issues have no base in reality to begin with.</p>
<p>My friend WL is a man who a few years back was <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2010/09/26/thatll-never-happen-to-me/" target="_blank">arrested for spousal assault</a>, which didn&#8217;t even occur. Didn&#8217;t matter though, she called it in, and he got hauled off to the slammer. I can honestly say that I&#8217;ve met his wife and she leaves MUCH to be desired. He married her because when they where dating, she got pregnant, and he manned up like any good adult male is supposed to. Even though he’s the sole breadwinner, she treats him like dirt to the point where my own wife felt the need to stand up for him after she found her making disparaging remarks about him on Facebook. He did manage to come back after this little kerfuffle (cough) but I can tell you right now that not much has changed. He’s there for the <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2010/10/02/hero/" target="_blank">kids</a>, because if he divorces he’ll lose them and most of his paycheque.</p>
<p>Then my friend DC told me of his situation with the family courts. His ex wife had changed drastically after they where married and she used her considerable leverage to penalize him every chance she had after they divorced. He hasn’t seen his daughter in years, and was actually told by his counsel that since he pays support, the chances of him seeing her are slim to none. The truth is that men who DON’T pay actually are flagged by the Canadian Family Responsibility Office and they seem to have more leverage in this regard.</p>
<p>People need to take a real good long look at what has just been posted above. That a man who doesn’t follow the rules has <b><i>more</i></b> leverage and power than a man who does. This won’t be the only time you see this example and THAT is the reason why Western Society is going down the tubes!! That my friends is, the reason why women wonder ‘where all the good men have gone?’</p>
<p>Even longtime commenter <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/09/15/relationships-and-noisy-crickets/#comment-132" target="_blank">Legion commented</a> on how his married life had gone before his wife called it quits on him. I say this in order to drive a point home; I’m a happily married man…and fast becoming a rapidly declining demographic. It’s to the point where I simply can’t advise a man to marry in good conscience any longer. It’s become too much of a <a href="http://dontmarry.wordpress.com/2009/07/05/eleven-strikes-against-marriage-2-0/" target="_blank">minefield for men</a> and carries no guarantees that any offsetting benefits will be brought to bear.</p>
<p>This is the reality most men face when it comes to marriage. Women have no compunction to uphold their part of the bargain when it comes to nuptials, which they’re told they are entitled to. However they seem to get their noses right out of joint when men balk at theirs. There’s a term gaining steam in the Manosphere known as ‘Frivorce’, which basically means a woman frivolously ending her marriage despite the consequences. <a href="http://heartiste.wordpress.com/2008/07/23/decivilizing-human-nature-unleashed/" target="_blank">Women initiate 75% of all divorces</a>, taking with them the children and leaving her ex husband on the financial hook, sometimes indefinitely.</p>
<p>Now this is just marriage, it spills over into other parts of life as well.</p>
<p>The mainstream media is also in on this little ‘game’ making so many men out to be nothing more than dithering morons who are nothing without the feminine leading lady. Just ask yourself this one question, just how many real manly male characters does one see in prime time television?  Men are subjected to being told that <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2010/10/08/daddy-is-useless/" target="_blank">their role in the family is redundant</a> despite their being much data stating that fathers are a stabilizing force in the family. <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/06/21/fathers-needed/" target="_blank">I&#8217;ve seen it firsthand</a> and you have no idea just how much fathers are VERY necessary. Here’s a question for you, when has anyone ever heard that ‘Mommy is Useless’? Ponder that one for a second.</p>
<p>Years ago before I even had taken the red pill, I had encountered a commenter on a relationship forum who had dubbed Lifetime as ‘The Evil White Man’s Network’ since it stuck to the ‘White men bad, women good’ Paradigm religiously. I say this as a Black man, I’m utterly shocked at how many television shows and advertisements depict White men as feckless morons in this day and age. Sadly, as soon as a White man complains, he’s always <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2013/03/17/pride-or-prejudice/" target="_blank">labeled as a racist</a>, just as many men are labeled as misogynists for speaking out about the very real injustice men face today.</p>
<p>Then we have wonderful little Easter Eggs like affirmative action and <a href="http://www.cotwa.info/" target="_blank">false rape allegations</a>, which stymie men even further. Most men have no qualms when a man who is guilty or unqualified gets his just rewards. The issue is that when the qualified or the straightforwardly innocent get railroaded, then this tends to get our backs up. Some men are actually forgoing any and all interactions with women simply out of self-protection; this is the reality which feminism has wrought in certain cases.</p>
<p>I hope this sheds a little light on why men flock to the one of the only places left where they can seek comfort in this day and age. No, men aren’t perfect and many men will tell you themselves this very true fact. The bottom line is that women have a lot to answer for in this day and age, but they are being protected from the consequences of such action thus far. In addition, they are actually held up as heroes for this injustice which one must understand, mixes up the traditional reward – punishment paradigm <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/05/14/welcome-to-the-jungle-part-one-incentive/" target="_blank">which made civilization possible</a>.</p>
<p>Bluntly, men are being punished for being <b><i>good</i></b> men. While they are young they are trampled in the brutal dating market and once older, a feminized society, a vicious mainstream media, and an unforgiving family court system trample them. <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/05/24/rage-against-the-machine/" target="_blank">Men are angry</a> because they were told in the past that they had wronged women and decided to change their ways. They listened when women had aired their misgivings and are vexed because by doing so they simply opened themselves up to injustice. Moreover, men are further incensed when they <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/09/15/relationships-and-noisy-crickets/" target="_blank">try to open up a dialog</a> about their very real issues and are shut down and maligned for doing so.</p>
<p>This is why the Manosphere exists; it’s simply a response to the ever growing anti male sentiment all men face in Western Countries.</p>

<p>I guess its time for another rant but I’m very tired of the attitude many men have in Western Countries regarding Feminism. If you’re a man wishing and hoping that women will get the gist of our issues and will put a halt to the Jihad they are putting on men then I have one suggestion for you all.</p>
<p>Bring a chair.</p>
<p>Folks, we need to get real about the situation, as ugly as it may look to us. To be blunt, women kind WILL NOT put a halt on the attack they have put on us UNTIL it no longer serves their benefit. Well, let me put it another way. They won’t stop giving men the gears until doing so <b><i>serves</i></b> to their detriment. I know what you’re saying, that if you speak enough about our very real and easily seen issues, that women by and large will see what they are doing and stop the unfairness they are pushing in society, right?</p>
<p>Yes, I know that there are women who have seen the light and are assisting in the revocation of feminism, but sadly it seems that they are the <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/09/13/the-chinstrap-paradox/">exception rather than the rule</a> when it comes to common sense in regards to the situation!! I&#8217;m glad that they see where this whole situation will lead us, but sadly I think that while logic brought them over to our side, it may be lost on many of our sisters who will sadly have to learn the hard way rather than hear us out.</p>
<p>Heck, if we tell many women the truth and share with them the reality in regards to<a href="http://www.singularity2050.com/2010/01/the-misandry-bubble.html"> the Misandry Bubble</a>, they will see the fallacies, which they chase so vociferously and we hope they will call off their misandrous tirade. The truth was shared <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2012/03/14/what-do-the-toronto-maple-laffs-feminism-and-western-women-have-in-common/">in a post I had made over a year ago</a> in regards to the situation at hand. As a Canadian and a Torontonian, I’m pleased that the Maple Leafs are doing well this shortened season. However I’m not holding my breath until this season passes and we see how they perform in the future. Just as I&#8217;m anxious about the Leafs, I&#8217;m telling any man reading this post that they need to be just as anxious about any woman they believe will take up the cause for Men&#8217;s Rights!!</p>
<p>The reason why the Leafs  have been perennially CRAP up until this time is due to one fact even after all these years. That human beings will work harder to keep from LOSING something than to gain ANYTHING. Bluntly, we will bust our @$$es to avoid pain than we will to gain pleasure.</p>
<p>Write that down in your notebooks everyone, this is a major factor in human thought process that I’m sharing with you!!!</p>
<p>As I have posted before, the Toronto Maple Leafs, a <b><i>professional</i></b> sports team, has been crap for decades due to the fact that whether they win or lose, they are<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_Maple_Leafs"> the most profitable sports team in the NHL.</a> Most teams have to worry about the win and loss column affecting their bottom line. The Leafs, for whatever reason, do not and this affects their choices on and off the ice. This is the very same reason why women by and large care little to nothing about the plight of men. Whether we men keep quiet or scream in the streets, this affects their general lifestyle VERY little so why would many women care?</p>
<p>I know this is hard to hear, it was a very hard lesson for me to accept myself, but it doesn&#8217;t make it any less true!!!</p>
<p>This is the main reason why ‘talking’ to most women about our issues simply devolves into a shouting/shaming match between two forces who aren&#8217;t listening to the other. Whether this happens online on in person matters little, women do not care for the sole reason as their livelihood is unaffected by our differing viewpoint!! This is also the reason why even after all this time that Feminism really hasn&#8217;t budged after everything we MRA’s have found out and made public to many unsuspecting men.</p>
<p>The reality; you have to hit ‘em where it hurts otherwise you are simply a gnat buzzing by the cow’s @$$ before it takes it’s tail and swats you. Kate Harding didn&#8217;t ‘<a href="http://www.avoiceformen.com/feminism/jezebels-kate-harding-joins-the-mrm/">join the team’</a> until the situation forced her hand. Some feminist websites didn&#8217;t drop their obvious leanings until it didn&#8217;t <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/12/06/high-profile-women-rejecting-feminist-label/">serve their purpose</a> to continue in that vein.</p>
<p>If we want more women to join our ranks and realize the issues behind feminism, then we have to show them how continuing their present course will only serve to undermine their own interests. The bottom line is that we are spinning our wheels if we think otherwise.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes that’s right everyone, apparently our Federal Minister of Fisheries had decided to really put his foot in his mouth by making a <a href="http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/conservative-cabinet-minister-tells-high-school-student-she-190235136.html?pt=bureof2gvb?date=20220706">sexist remark</a> to a high school student. A rundown of events c/o CBC news;</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;In Fredericton, MP and federal Fisheries Minister Keith Ashfield, invited the media to a staged family conversation about the budget with Roland and Gina Moreno and their two daughters.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It was an opportunity to highlight the government&#8217;s emphasis on training young people for jobs the economy needs, but things went awkwardly off-script at the start as Ashfield sampled baked goods and chatted with eldest daughter Grace Moreno, a local high school student leader.Grace, you&#8217;re a great cook,&#8221; Ashfield said. &#8220;You&#8217;re going to make a wonderful wife for somebody.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>I know, what an appalling thing to say to a young woman!! The unmitigated gall of this supposed learned man and exemplar of society!!</p>
<p>Thankfully we had two people decide to stand up to this man for his very large breach of public etiquette especially in this enlightened day and age. Political Analyst Lisa Kirbie was quoted as saying;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;In what universe is it acceptable to tell a young woman that she’s going to make someone a great wife one day,&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Agreed Lisa, what universe would THAT be? She’s not alone; we also have NDP Member of Parliament, Megan Leslie ALSO chiming in with;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;His comments were disrespectful. Come on&#8230;&#8217;Grace, you&#8217;re a great cook, you&#8217;re going to make a wonderful wife for somebody.&#8217; In other words, there-there, stop planning for your future.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Thankfully someone has seen this compliment for exactly what it is and bringing this to everyone’s attention! Mr. Ashfield tried to save face from his thoughtless blunder but simply deflected things instead;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Mr. Speaker, obviously the opposition has little to find in fault in our budget&#8230;if this is the only type of question it could ask.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Trying to escape the heat Mr. Ashfield? You must know by now that the federal budget is nothing compared to a sexist comment hidden under the thinly veiled guise as a compliment! It doesn&#8217;t matter that you may have been sincere and had no ulterior motives or plans when you uttered such domineering wickedness!! Don’t you know that marriage for women is oppression, how could you have said such a thing? Well, we have a little insight into what this man was thinking after his office sent this message to Yahoo! Canada News.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I would like to thank the Moreno family for taking the time to discuss Canada’s Economic Action Plan 2013. The family’s insightful comments and feedback are valuable to me and our Government as we continue to build a strong and prosperous nation.</p>
<p>&#8220;My comments to Grace Moreno have been taken out of context and were simply meant to compliment her on her genuine hospitality.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ms. Moreno is a gifted and active young member of her high school and our greater community. And she has a great future ahead of her.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am proud of our youth and I appreciate the contributions that she and other youth continue to make to our community and country.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Sorry, this message is too little, too late Mr. Ashfield. It appears more re-education is necessary in order to rid this world of these outdated opinions and stereotypes. However, I’d have more confidence that we could wash away this Sexism for good if there wasn&#8217;t a large portion of the commentariat agreeing that this was blown out of proportion. If anything, from their comments it seems people would like us to be <strong><em>less</em> </strong>politically correct, gosh I wonder why.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This post may be ill advised, but I’m tired of taking this crap at the moment. I was trying to find a brilliant post I had linked to and I found that it had been deleted.  Then while trying to find it, I found <a href="http://okcupidhateswomen.blogspot.ca/2012_04_01_archive.html">THIS</a>!!!</p>
<p>Here’s the deal;</p>
<p>I’m NOT some friggin’ basement dweller that wishes he had a woman to save his life. I’m a happily married man with stepchildren who has seen the light and recognized the issues men have to deal with in Western Society. In this post, I will admit that I’m FAR from what many would consider an ‘Alpha Male’ as what I have done to get to this point would show that I’m what’s considered an evolutionary ‘dead end’.</p>
<p>That being said, I can see VERY clearly how that post I had linked to was completely ON POINT in terms of common sense. That post was deleted due to the fact that it was more of a headache than anything else, but it doesn’t change the fact that it was <strong>100% <em>true</em></strong>.  A career woman trying to find their one true love at the age of 46 has quite an uphill battle ahead of them. Impossible…maybe not, but it’s akin to trying to get on a pro sports team at the same age.</p>
<p>We can label it as ‘misogyny’ or we can realize that the truth of the matter and that it’s <strong><em>nothing</em></strong> but common sense!!! Even at the ‘low’ level that I seemingly exist at, I personally have found that women who I wouldn’t have had the guts to approach when I was younger, have approached me since I’ve aged and gotten married. <strong>(edit; this approach doesn&#8217;t work out so well for women though, sad but true!!)</strong></p>
<p>This is life, not ageism, not misogyny, nothing but COMMON SENSE. If you wait to approach men after your high season has passed (15 – 25), then your feedback will act accordingly.  If you have a problem with this, then take it up with the Chairman of the board, that is if you can find Mother Nature&#8217;s secretary which no one as of yet has been able to accomplish!!!</p>
<p>Want a tip? Don&#8217;t try to find the sexiest dudes AFTER the sun has set on your best assets. If you don&#8217;t like this answer, don&#8217;t worry. Others will <em><strong>easily</strong> </em>take your place!!!</p>

<p>A friend of mine had showed me this after a friend of his posted this on Facebook. I’m compelled to post this on the Phantom Tollbooth as I agree with the crux of this message.</p>
<blockquote><p> To any of my friends of color this is not a personal attack or meant to be offensive to you. However I do think this man has some valid points in what he says.</p>
<p>Why Can&#8217;t We Be Proud To Be White ?</p>
<p>I have been wondering about why Whites are racists, and no other<br />
race is. Proud-to-be-white Michael Richards makes his point&#8230;</p>
<p>Michael Richards better known as Kramer from TVs Seinfeld does make a good point. This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points&#8230; Someone finally said it&#8230; How many are actually paying attention to this?</p>
<p>There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc. And then there are just Americans. You pass me<br />
on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me &#8216;White boy,&#8217;<br />
&#8216;Cracker,&#8217; &#8216; Honkey,&#8217; &#8216;Whitey,&#8217; &#8216;Caveman&#8217; &#8230; and that&#8217;s OK.</p>
<p>But when I call you, n****r, Kike, Towel head, Sand-n****r, Camel<br />
Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink &#8230; You call me a racist. You say<br />
that whites commit a lot of violence against you&#8230; so why are the ghettos the most dangerous<br />
places to live?</p>
<p>You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King Day. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma&#8217;uled Al-Nabi. You have the NAACP.</p>
<p>You have BET&#8230; If we had WET (White Entertainment Television) we&#8217;d be racists. If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists. If we had White History Month, we&#8217;d be racists.</p>
<p>If we had any organization for only whites to &#8216;advance&#8217; OUR lives<br />
we&#8217;d be racists.</p>
<p>We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of<br />
Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that??</p>
<p>A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant,<br />
but any color can be in the Miss America pageant.</p>
<p>If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships<br />
&#8230;You know we&#8217;d be racists.</p>
<p>There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US. Yet if there were &#8216;White colleges&#8217; that would be a racist college.</p>
<p>In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.</p>
<p>You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you&#8217;re<br />
not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.</p>
<p>You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.</p>
<p>I am proud&#8230;But you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites<br />
can be racists??</p>
<p>There is nothing improper about this e-mail&#8230;Let&#8217;s see which of<br />
you are proud enough to send it on. I sadly don&#8217;t think many will.<br />
That&#8217;s why we have lost most of OUR RIGHTS in this country.</p>
<p>We won&#8217;t stand up for ourselves!</p>
<p>BE PROUD TO BE WHITE ! It&#8217;s not a crime yet,<br />
but getting real close!</p></blockquote>
<p>Now here’s the deal everyone, I’m a Black man living in North America, but I posted this because it had to be said. Sure, one could state that all North Americans learn White History in school and therefore they don’t require a month of their own. In addition, we could point our fingers at ‘White Privilege’ as to why it is that Whites shouldn&#8217;t complain and &#8216;spread the wealth&#8217; as it where.</p>
<p>However these arguments only confuse the situation at hand. Boil things down to their core and you have one simple thing; that when a White person complains about the very real injustice they face, they are derided for it.</p>
<p>Folks, this ISN&#8217;T right!!!</p>
<p>It seems to me that due to the fact that it was mostly White’s who settled North America and stood together to forge this continent, that they are being punished for it now. I say this because of the very same reason why I stand up for Men’s rights. Complaining about so-called ‘White Privilege’ makes White’s racist about as much as complaining about Feminism makes a man a misogynist. There are very real issues being faced here, we need to take a look and see what the deal is.</p>
<p>Folks, if you doubt me then I need you all to follow up with this little homework assignment. Do yourselves a favor and tally up every commercial, radio advert, and television show, which displays men in a negative light. Then, I need you to tally up the ones, which target White men specifically. You’d be surprised just how much White men are made to look like dunce caps due to their ‘White Privilege’. I’m not saying that racism doesn&#8217;t exist. Nor am I saying that other races don’t sometimes get the sh!t end of the stick. All I’m saying is that NO ONE is standing up for White People, and that isn&#8217;t right to say the least!!!</p>
<p>It’s high time we recognized this fact and called it like it was.</p>

<p>Just encountered this very interesting <a href="http://ca.shine.yahoo.com/blogs/work-money/former-cfo-erin-callan-regrets-not-having-children--reignites-work-life-balance-debate-194956243.html">article</a> about Erin Callan, former CFO of Lehman Brothers. She had written an <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/10/opinion/sunday/is-there-life-after-work.html?ref=opinion&amp;_r=4&amp;">opinion piece in the New York Times</a> about the work/life balance debate facing people as she reflected on her life. As a high level executive, her work became her life, and as a result other aspects had to take a backseat.</p>
<blockquote><p>‘I don’t have children, so it might seem that my story lacks relevance to the work-life balance debate. Like everyone, though, I did have relationships — a spouse, friends and family — and none of them got the best version of me. They got what was left over.</p></blockquote>
<p>A very harsh realization, and sadly she found this out too late. However, there is a quote in the article written by Andrew Hill, which caught, my eye that I believe could confuse the issue facing the choices of contemporary career seekers.</p>
<blockquote><p>If employees lean in, only to keel over on to the boardroom table out of fatigue, something is wrong,” writes Andrew Hill in the Financial Times Monday, referencing the title of Sandberg’s new tome. “The book and Ms. Callan’s lament expose a problem with the system, not just with the people in it. Managers ought to be creating the conditions to get the best work from all staff, not simply to extract the most work from a determined few. If employees are driven, or drive themselves, to unproductive and unhappy extremes, the whole corporate economy suffers.<i></i></p></blockquote>
<p>The crux of the issue; business is about making money. Employees are simply tools used by business in order to achieve this end. Whether we like it or not, the truth of the matter is that men are better at this particular role as they can be the breadwinners while the wife can stay at home if she chooses (if possible) or work a less stressful job. Thus giving her the time to actually rear a family if she desires. The question is how easy can businesses <b><i>afford</i></b> to make life for their employees in order to avoid creating more situations like Erin Callan’s? Perks such as extended leaves of absence, or flexible working hours come at a cost to the company, which we all know affects the bottom line.</p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong here; I’m not saying that there aren’t men who haven&#8217;t sacrificed their family life for the almighty dollar or that working men to death is acceptable. Nor am I implying that women shouldn’t strive for elite positions in business if that is their dream. Lastly, I’m also not in favor of overworking your employees simply to stay in the black. Yes there has to be a reasonable balance (there’s that word again) for even the most rudimentary business to get the best from their employees. The bottom line I wish to touch on here; while both men and women have to keep this work/life balance in mind, it’s women who have to be even more realistic about their goals and make their choices accordingly. I repeat myself often here but it’s in the hopes that people may eventually listen. A woman simply can’t forgo the finality of their positions in life. You simply can’t make up for lost time, once the window is closed; it often is closed for good.</p>
<p>We all know that many argue the unfairness of the situation. That men don’t have to make a huge choice between the boardroom and settling down to have a family, but during this debate, we lose sight of the truth. Arguing about the equality of a situation, which can’t be changed, is simply a waste of time. No, it isn’t fair that an up and coming female business elite will have to take time off from work in order to start a family, the reality is who precisely do you take that particular issue too?</p>
<p>Mother Nature tends to be a little steadfast, and I doubt anyone knows where her secretary is to set up a board meeting.</p>
<p>This issue isn’t one to be placed on the doorstop of Money Inc, but simply to realize the limitations both genders face as they strive for corporate success. The ugly reality is that when women approach their careers the way men do, they end up losing a lot more than they bargained for.</p>
<blockquote><p>I have spent several years now living a different version of my life, where I try to apply my energy to my new husband, Anthony, and the people whom I love and care about. But I can’t make up for lost time. Most important, although I now have stepchildren, I missed having a child of my own. I am 47 years old, and Anthony and I have been trying in vitro fertilization for several years. We are still hoping.</p></blockquote>
<p>The truth is that Erin Callan is much closer to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menopause">menopause</a> than motherhood and sadly, I’d wager that her ship has already sailed. So many contemporary women have hailed Erin as a hero by ascending the ladder of success. However this quote seems to sum up her position on the matter in a very stark and serious manner.</p>
<blockquote><p> Sometimes young women tell me they admire what I’ve done. As they see it, I worked hard for 20 years and can now spend the next 20 focused on other things. But that is not balance. I do not wish that for anyone.</p></blockquote>
<p>Sadly, most won’t listen to her position, many being <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2012/03/29/false-teaching/">misinformed</a> about aspects such as their fertility in addition to believing <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2011/03/10/it-happened-to-a-friend-of-a-friend-of-mine/">it won’t happen to them</a>. I highly doubt Erin thought she would wind up there either.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 460px"><a href="http://omnipitron.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/laryngitis.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image  " id="i-717" alt="Image" src="http://omnipitron.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/laryngitis.jpg?w=450" width="450" height="293" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">c/o webmd.com</p></div>
<p>I’m sure everyone’s heard of Laryngitis, an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laryngitis">illness</a> which can render someone either completely mute, or leaving them sounding like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_L%C5%8Dc">Tone Loc</a> whispering. Now, is it possible for someone to both have laryngitis <b><i>while</i></b> being able to speak? Came across an interesting <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/06/26/regret/#comment-157370">quote</a> from Crella in regards to a woman’s regretful choice, which really got me thinking about this very topic.</p>
<blockquote><p>“‘Lost their “voices”? Is she fucking kidding? We are bombarded by their endless whinging about everything from imaginary workplace discrimination (sob) to how much they regret mismanaging their relationships (double plus sob).’</p>
<p>Yes, that ‘s a classic, isn’t it? Until recently Femisting’s home page had a comment about giving women a voice. <strong>When have they not had one!?</strong>”&#8221; (emphasis mine)</p></blockquote>
<p>Very good question isn&#8217;t it? Don’t women have even more say <b><i>now</i></b> than they&#8217;ve ever had in history? In fact, one could say that they have much more than even men in this day and age, no? I have a hypothesis, that when contemporary women mean they wish to have a voice, they really mean they simply would like a choice.</p>
<p>Seems fair enough, and considering the distinct lack of choices women had in the past, it appears a reasonable enough request. For them to have more choices, for them to have a voice in regards to their own lives instead of being told what they can and can’t do. So what’s the issue now, why is it that Jill Bennett was so aggrieved about losing her <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/06/26/regret/">voice</a> during the end of her 10 year relationship?</p>
<p>In my opinion as it appears to me, it simply seems to be the frustration of having no say in the prior lack of commitment and later exit of her aggrieved boyfriend. So this really means that when <strong><em>some</em> </strong>women wish to have a voice, or a choice, would much of the bellyaching they seem to be doing now is trying to have their cake and eat it too as <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/06/26/regret/#comment-157374">Towgunner</a> points out so eloquently?</p>
<p>Choices have consequences, use your voice and make your choices <b><i>wisely</i></b>. That is part of responsibility!!</p>
<p>At this point, however, this apparent ‘laryngitis epidemic’ seems to be happening while women are still largely controlling the mainstream media which is interesting to say the least. They have a voice, but still maintain that they don’t which I find very ironic considering where Feminism could eventually lead. You see, normally I don’t post too much about what exactly the end of feminism could look like. Mainly because my crystal ball is no less broken than anyone else’s’.  However, to any one of you who’s read the <a href="http://www.singularity2050.com/2010/01/the-misandry-bubble.html">Misandry Bubble</a> and understood TFH’s concepts, has anyone really considered what the end result for women truly could be?  Will it not be women virtually losing their voices <strong><i>completely</i></strong>?</p>
<p>As I’ve stated in the past, I speak in concepts; it may appear to be hyperbole, but that’s simply how I’ve learned to keep myself grounded (weird, I know). The main concepts affecting men and women’s relationships I see behind The <a href="http://www.singularity2050.com/2010/01/the-misandry-bubble.html">Misandry Bubble</a> finally bursting will be;</p>
<ol start="1">
<li>Due to economic shortfall from men not manning up and starting families, many jobs will possibly be lost by both men and women</li>
</ol>
<ol start="2">
<li>Governments may have to scale back their many programs due to the lack of their previous tax base since younger men aren&#8217;t marrying in the same numbers to replace their outgoing counterparts</li>
</ol>
<p>These two points are meant to show the possibility that Government backed security, which women sometimes require as a surrogate husband, will be greatly weakened in the future. In addition the comfy lifestyle  which we are all accustomed, will most likely come to an end. At this point, we need to consider what this means to many women during this time.</p>
<ol start="1">
<li>Stable marriage minded men would be in a better position to pick a wife as they should be rare (and valuable) while marriage minded women will be plentiful, and unfortunately not as valuable</li>
</ol>
<ol start="2">
<li>Due to the devolvement of slut shaming and chastity, women will have little to no leverage in negotiating with a man to marry them and will have to accept far less WHILE giving far more than they would have in the past</li>
</ol>
<p>This is the ugly truth that I believe we are headed for at the conclusion of TFH’s Misandry Bubble. Where marriage once more goes from a luxury some women feel entitled too, to a necessity that women will have to fight for or face severe consequences.</p>
<p>So, what sort of world does this ascribe to women? How many choices does one think women will have if (and yes it is a big if) the Misandry Bubble Blows up in this manner?  Technically speaking, women would STILL have the legal power they do now, but what about the choices available to them? Would the government even be able to enforce these rules in women’s favor?</p>
<p>At the end of the day, my personal belief is that the <a href="http://www.singularity2050.com/2010/01/the-misandry-bubble.html">Misandry Bubble</a>, which IS the logical conclusion of Feminism, will in actuality leave women far worse off than when the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffragette">suffragettes</a> marched years ago!! The world will have regressed to a point where Patriarchy would have saved women’s interests, but will have to face the world without chastity and men’s commitment.  If they think they have no voice now, just wait until we all have 2020 vision!!</p>
<p><strong>For the record, I just wanted to add this. While I do want to see feminism burn to the ground for the hateful movement that it is, I’m really not looking forward to the eventual issues we all will have to face. It will be fun for no one, but women will suffer immensely because of this. I’m not looking forward to the most crushing of situations for women, which could be possible during this time. Having to find a suitor to marry simply to increase the odds of survival, yet having to compete for a small amount of stable men against a much larger amount of women. For men it could be brutal, for women; it could be catastrophic. Ladies and gentleman, this is what <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2012/03/12/why-patriarchy/">Patriarchy</a>, while not perfect whatsoever, was trying to protect women and society FROM!! I don’t agree with everything the old ways of the past stood for and some changes would be necessary in the future, but the past could very well have been better than the dark future, which awaits us all.</strong></p>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello fellas, back in the saddle once more after having put out some fires on the home front. I’d once more like to thank those who haven’t removed me from their blogrolls and the visitors who&#8217;ve come by to check up on &#8230; <a href="http://omnipitron.com/2013/02/14/the-ring/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=omnipitron.com&#038;blog=33653040&#038;post=668&#038;subd=omnipitron&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://omnipitron.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/engagement-ring1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image " id="i-689" alt="Image" src="http://omnipitron.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/engagement-ring1.jpg?w=500" width="500" height="275" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">c/o kingofrocks.com</p></div>
<p>Hello fellas, back in the saddle once more after having put out some fires on the home front. I’d once more like to thank those who haven’t removed me from their blogrolls and the visitors who&#8217;ve come by to check up on me.  A lot has changed in my absence, we&#8217;ve seen the exit of 7 man and CL from the Manosphere (good luck and Godspeed you two), and some chinks in the armor of almighty feminism. Looks like certain feminist activities have really made them look…not so good in the mainstream media. Well Kate, if you can’t beat ‘em, <a href="http://www.avoiceformen.com/feminism/jezebels-kate-harding-joins-the-mrm/">join ‘em</a>, as your movement is looking less benevolent and more hateful all the time. Must deflect that <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/12/11/what-does-feminism-look-like-on-youtube/">bad press</a> somehow…too bad people are catching on and you&#8217;re possibly loosing <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/12/06/high-profile-women-rejecting-feminist-label/">popularity</a>.</p>
<p>However, the thing I wish to touch upon now is about the marriage landscape and getting men to say ‘I do’. You see, everyone knows full well that women are the gatekeepers of sex, nothing new to see here. However, just as both women and men have greatly underestimated the irreplaceable male contribution, it seems that many have forgotten a very key point. Men are the gatekeepers of commitment and we can choose to exercise this right <strong><em>however</em> </strong>we see fit.</p>
<p>You see, due to the feminization of so many western women, some have deemed the skills, which men sought for in marriage ‘unnecessary’ and even oppressive. What so many have forgotten is that many men have always needed to be enticed into marriage. If a marriage minded man doesn&#8217;t find a woman enticing, there’s nothing stopping him from moving on to another one who might. Yes, a wife is entitled to half the assets in a committed relationship, but until a single man either puts a ring on it, or gets a woman pregnant, a single woman isn&#8217;t entitled to anything from anybody!!</p>
<p>Think about <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Clooney">George Clooney</a> for a sec, the man has been busy dating since his 1993 divorce. He dated Elisabetta Canalis in 2009, but when she pushed for marriage, he bounced. No commitment=no entitlement, and he had nothing stopping him from leaving her as technically he really wasn&#8217;t with her. This is as true for Clooney as it is for any man, and more are exercising this choice to the <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2012/06/26/regret/">regret</a> of many women.</p>
<p>The difficulty women and greater society is facing is that <a href="http://www.avoiceformen.com/sexual-politics/m-g-t-o-w/hear-the-lamentation-of-the-women/">you can’t shame, force, or cajole men into marriage if they truly don’t wish it.</a> Moreover, if they have no use of marrying a certain <a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2013/01/25/scandnavian-men-leaving-feminists-to-themselves/"><b><i>type</i></b> </a>of woman, there is nothing under the sun available to other parties to make them do so. I have some experience with this evident frustration as I mostly dated and then married interracial. The annoyance displayed by a few of the black women we encountered varied from passing irritation, to vocal opposition.  One instance actually had some women calling my girlfriend and I out, yes lads they can get that frustrated. The reality is that unless a man puts a ring on a woman’s finger, or knocks her up; she has no say in regards to his life. Those women that we had upset were simply realizing their lack of power in that regard, and all they could do was complain about it.</p>
<p>The early Patriarchy was designed to entice men, to marry, using chastity and example as leverage to get them to man up. Without this leverage, the truth is that women are left to their own devices as men either choose to opt out, or look for greener pastures. Gentleman, be prepared for situations like what I had encountered to rise as more men take foreign wives while their single countrywoman look on in defenseless disgust.</p>
<p>The main part that many women need to recognize is simply this; if you don’t want to ‘play by the rules’, worry not because someone else will!!</p>
