Sure, we're more or less enlightened these days, but even with all our knowledge, altruism, and progressiveness dudes want to pass on their genetic material (f***) and to do that to the best of their ability they tend to dominate in business and government.
In other words, past men created the system in which we find ourselves, and if we current men don't like it then maybe we need to be more inclusive of our other halves so we can change any perceived inequities we're experiencing. I'm just not sure we're going to really get away from our natures, though. Alphas tend to want to pass on their genetic materially (f***) really really badly, and thus they tend to dominate to ensure others don't get their opportunities at wealth and power which facilitate passing on one's genetic material (f*****g).
I'm not even going to touch what motivates a woman, but what I do think is really s****y is to deny them opportunity... But then again they have to compete against Alpha males in business and government and those dudes have their s*** locked down tight (aided and abetted by their supportive women).
Anyway. Women, and it's a fact, are far, far, far more victimized by men than the other way around. So, I'm not really sure what LDSFAQs is suggesting. While my life hasn't been an easy one by any measure, I was literally groomed to compete in this world for my share. I wasn't given much quarter, but on the same token the fact that I was held accountable and responsible for my actions, words, and deeds from toddlerhood through now prepared me to exist in a world that doesn't really give a flying fuckall about me or my family. Couple that with the inherent advantages I've enjoyed being male, white, American, and a GODDAMN EAGLE SCOUT and I was better prepared than many to end up where I'm at these days which is f*****g RETIRED AT AGE 44!!! Wubba wubba dubba!!!
Cry me a river boys, if you feel victimized. Reach on down somewhere around your perineum and see if you still have a set, because if you're bitching about the unfairness of life here in America you're a f*****g pussy and couldn't hack it. That makes you Life's bitch. Hop on your Rascal, take a trip down to Walmart, park in front of their deli, and eat yourself some greasy deep fried chicken... Because that's the only thing you're good at.
