    I've become rather frustrated with the all the discrimination I have been seeing against males. I think it's really gone too far. Are there any organizations for younger pro-males? Any kind of forums, anything at all?

    without trying to sound harsh, i think that pro-male, pro-female groups can be shallow. I dont mean feminists, i am one, and im totally down for equal rights and all that stuff, i just mean people who are doing this to basically take sides. All they're really proving is "AH-HA!! I CAN DO THIS TOO, OR LOOK, I CAN DO IT BETTER FOR THAT MATTER" I think these groups are just as segregational as racist groups. Maybe not as harsh, but just as ignorant. Why can't we just BE TOGETHER and be pro HUMANITY and start thinking about the important things that we should be fighting for in this world. Gender competition is a waste of time.

    Although i can counter-act what i just said and say, if people would have said gender competition is a waste of time 40 years ago, we wouldn't be where we are today, and that's very true. But despite the fact that we've come a long way since then, no one is ever going to be satisfied. Women get something, and men rebel, then women rebel more. It's a big effin circle. WHY CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALOOOOOONG?!?! :mad:

    --Many women(especially in the office) get hired before men and get special treatment.
    --Men have no say in abortion.
    --Many men are sexually harrassed, but are never taken seriously, if and when they speak up.
    --The army (Rather discriminatory to both sexes, imho)
    --Car insurance.
    --Affirmative Action

    This is'nt a "gender competition". We are'nt even aloud to talk about it, because people automaticly think we are doing it in spite. Just to piss people off.

    Why should men have any say in abortion?

    There are plenty of pro-male groups, go out and join one.

    New Jersey outlawed men's clubs? Are you talking about strip clubs? If so, then I highly doubt it.

    As for abortion..once men are able to carry the fetus inside their body, then they should be able to have equal input. Not to say that their opinions don't matter-they DO. But, in the end, they're not the ones who must carry the fetus for nine months.

    Amen brother! It's for the reasons you listed above that I'm not a feminist. Among other reasons. :)

    And then of course there are the women who call themselves feminists but attack the choices of other women, i.e. those who choose to work in the adult industries. How sad that is since I thought feminism was about women defending each other so that we can do whatever we want.

    Whoa now. That is part of the man who helped create that fetus. Its about more then baggage at that point. If your willing to have unprotected sex with a man then damnit you damn well better be able to live up to consequences. I think that abortion is good for cases of rape and the like, but to say a man doesnt deserve to have a say because its not in his body... thats just fucked up. "Were going to take away your unborn child because well... your girl doesnt want to carrry it for 9 months"...

    Its absolutly true that men and women are treated differentlly. Both have pros and cons. Anyway you cut it someones getting fucked
