OUR HEART-BROKEN, PISSED-OFF MEN
Men were not put here to nurture us. It is quite the opposite. They are our protectors.
Unknowingly, women have been chipping away at male dignity.Some of them would hoot at that—Are you talking male entitlement in this day and age? Get in touch, crazy lady, we have the same rights that men have. No we don’t. Men have the right to get blown to bits in wars. We don’t, if we choose not to. Men have the right to provide for their families, but we compete for the jobs they need to accomplish this, often winning out by working more cheaply. Men have the right to come home from work at night, find sanctuary in an orderly house, flop on the sofa, turn on the TV and crack open a cold one. They didn’t come home to change wet diapers. That’s a woman’s job, even when the woman works. Women seem to forget that they are the nurturers, and if it takes an exta hour or two in addition to working outside the home, that's just too bad-- men have to leave their jobs, or halt their careers to go fight our bloody wars. The men need our paychecks because the squeeze is on them from the upper five percent who run this country and have all the money and the power to destroy the dignity of men by taking away their work.
I am watching three to six men put up a two level house across the street. From laying the foundation, to dry wall, to the installation of bathroom fixtures, one can tell by the way they carry themselves that they love their work and are proud to be doing it. When they can find it to do.
Working men are getting the shaft from the five percemt who have turned the country into their personal bank. Many of the wealthy are candid about the need for a certain rate of national unemployment--it helps their investments.
Five percent of the people have ninety five percent of the wealth. When will the men wise up and rise up? We are all working to support not just ourselves, but the top heavy privileged who are scamming the country with their obscene salaries, perks, and bonuses. We are the serfs out tilling the fields for our masters in their lavish manors.
Yes, women have been, and still are being treated unfairly, that’s one reason why it takes two paychecks to float a houseboat.
More about unfairness to women when I can sit up and take nourishment.
