What has FEMINISM DONE to make a MANS LIFE BETTER?

Answer 1

its sole purpose... to make a mans life a living hell so that women can feel better about themselves?

-Tall Poppy Syndrome.

Answer 2

Nothing. Men do cook and clean more they help with child raising and other things. But since the feminists here say that the plight of fathers and female on male DV have nothing to do with feminism then by those same rules the good things would be canceled too. Unless you use the other rule where only good things come from feminism and only bad things come from men.

Answer 3

After all these comments, let me tell you a joke; with the feminism now women are working harder. Earning money, looking after kids, cooking, trying to be the best, looking as gorgeous as possible. What else men can wish. Hallelujah

Answer 4

Men's lives are better under feminist principles because feminism frees both men and women from constricting gender stereotypes. Men are slower adapting to the fact that they shouldn't be expected to be "the breadwinner," and have to dress a certain way and so forth. Feminism is really about removing the shackles.

It is naive and insulting to both men and women when a commentator, such as one above, compares men to plantation owners who lost "slaves" with the advent of feminism. Rememeber that men in the patriarchal first half of the 20th century often worked in very, very dangerous jobs -- coal mines and steel mills -- at staggering hours just to put food on the table for their families. Most of them died at an early age because their lives were hard and wretched. They acted as breadwinner because that was their lot in life, they were born into it, not that they ever gave it a thought. How dare you compare these men to slave owners or their wives as slaves! They were hard working Americans, probably your grandparents. Note that the wives' lives were no picnic either, albiet safer. When the economy exploded after WW II, finally this was a chance for women -- and men -- to loosen the chains. But stop attributing evil to males, it is anti-intellectual.

Answer 5

lol. Don't you see how ridiculous your question is: feminism is a political movement for female rights. Where does it say that it has to take care of men as well? I know it must hurt you, but do try to think before you make silly statements like this one.

Answer 6

Some men learned how to cook for themselves and it turns out they are better cooks than their wives.
Some men learned how to better care for their children, and it turned out that they were better parents than their wives.
When a man has a daughter or granddaughter, it's now easier for him to believe that she can accomplish anything with enough talent and hard work.

Overall, there should be cooperation, respect and effort from both men and women to make the relationship work. Now it seems that no one knows what they are supposed to do and what their value is. The kids are trapped in the middle of this nightmare.

Answer 7

It has freed them from being stuck in jobs that they hate and have to keep because they are the sole breadwinners for their families. At least with two incomes, the man isn't under nearly as much pressure to work long hours in a job that he dreads going to every morning and he gets to spend more time with his family. This is certainly a contrast to the fathers from my generation who did stay in jobs they hated because their families relied too much on their incomes and they would be totally grouchy and tired when they came home in the evenings. I remember that many mothers at that time would try to hide the children away when their husbands first came home from work. They typically would send the children to their rooms or have them go outside to play if the weather was nice.

Answer 8

You ask this ridiculous question about 4 times a day. Every day it's spelled out for you repeatedly in a million different ways, yet you don't understand. I'm certain that this time will be no different.

How about this one:

What have women/feminism done for men? We could have flushed you, because we have the right to do so. Instead we chose to nurture you with our bodies, half ruining them in the process. When you were boys, we gave you our unconditional love and devotion and we gave you the benefit of a mama who adored you and helped make you the man you are today.

Stop being a pig already.

Edit: Aw well, I expect the thumbs down. It really hurts and all, but let me ask you, which do you prefer?

To know that you were wanted by your mother from the moment she knew about you, or that she had no choice but to give birth to you? Personally, I'm glad to know I was chosen by my mother.

Answer 9

Men already have better life than women. I have never heard of a man called a "w..." because he had too many girlfriends (too many for whom? who decides for these numbers??).
That being said women can not get the same payment as men athough they work a lot and work even better than men.
Look at the parliaments men are always ahead.
Never heard of women beating her husband
So don't come here to cry. you are already 5-1 ahead.
What have men done for women?
Don't tell me that you buy flowers for your gf/wife... A woman doesn't need flowers she needs men supporting her cause(s)
Look at all the men and women around the world and then maybe you will not feel so well about your question.

Answer 10

you will have to tell me what it has done to make your life better. The goal of feminism is not to make a man's life better just like the goal of civil rights was not to make the life of the caucasian population better. I mean for the first several years, alot of the plantation owners lost a lot of money adapting to the new system, but that did not mean that the revolution should not have taken place.
Unfortunately for you gender equality means that it is no longer all about making men's lives better, it's about women in specific and society in general because if you remove 50% of the work force from the work force, we will not be able to compete with any of the western nations

by the way why does it seem that alot of men are now whinning like little babies now that they are no longer the dominant gender. Is that the best you can do?

Answer 11

There once was a man. This man was related to a woman. This woman had a job that paid her money. The woman shared the money with the man. He bought food.
