Men rarely worry about using or being used because all relationships work that way. A man perceives himself as owning and being owned by a woman. 'Use' is a dirty word only when there's an imbalance in the relationship.
If a man belittles a woman, it could become a lawsuit. If women belittle men, it's a Hallmark card.
We always look at the 'Fortune 500,' and we say, men in power, but we don't look at the glass cellar as opposed to the glass ceiling and say, men also are the homeless, men are also the ones that are the garbage collectors. Men are also the ones dyin...
We take men's obligation to earn money, and when they do it well ,we blame them for having power and being oppressors. And when they don't do it all, women just don't marry men who are reading 'I'm Okay, You're Okay' in the unemployment line.
Men don't oppress women any more than women oppress men.
My wife's income allowed me to do what I really loved. I realized that women's liberation is men's liberation, too.
Is there discrimination against women? Yes. There's no denying that the old boys' network is alive and well. But there's also discrimination against men.
In our society, the sound of men complaining is like nails on a chalkboard.
A lot of young men are frustrated and looking for someone to blame.
Men's competitive team sports focus on the balance between individual achievement and team achievement with the emphasis on team achievement.

It certainly has not been in my self-interest to defend men.
Men make more money but have lower net worths.
You could make a case that women addicted men to their sexuality and then withdrew their sexuality until we provided them with a source of income.
I definitely agree with choices for women, but I do not agree with choices for women when they eliminate choices for men. Rather, I think that the sexes need to make choices that lead to the maximum amount of win-win for both sexes.
After years of research, I discovered 25 differences in the work-life choices of men and women. All 25 lead to men earning more money, but to women having better lives.
Men are likely to be quite generous, especially financially.
I realized that women's liberation is men's liberation, too.
Is there discrimination against women? Yes, like the old boys' network. And sometimes discrimination against women becomes discrimination against men: in hazardous fields, women suffer fewer hazards.
Let's face it: men do a lot of things in the workplace that women just don't do.
Men have not stacked the decks against women.
