    Maybe in 1960s.

    In modern world, any negative generalization or pejorative about men is acceptable.

    Slightest generalization about women would bring firing and blacklisting.

    Those convicted face very severe consequences.

    Women who abuse children face virtually no consequences.

    That is not what I said. In general, men do not use power to penalize those who fairly and unfairly criticize them:

    Women in general do use the power they have to defend their reputation by severely penalizing anyone who says offensive things about them -- like Speech Codes at Universities.

    Are you serious??? Why do you suppose women don’t report sexual abuse?

    Because obtaining conviction on he said/she said is difficult.

    But women who are convicted of abusing children or partners generally face very mild consequences.

    I don’t believe you are actually saying that men do not use power to penalize those who fairly and unfairly criticized them. Let’s start with your president, that’s probably the best example. Men use their power all the time to punish those who don’t agree with them or who go against them in anyway.its called, business That’s what power is all about. Obvious you believe that women just lie to defend their reputation. How sexist and just another way of trivializing sexual harassment

    They should get harsher consequences if what you are saying is true.

    Because men use logic tempered with emotion to make decisions and it's the opposite with women.

    Each is better in certain situations where the other is worse. They are meant to be complementary.

    Of course because discrimination against men is so rampant. Those poor victims of sexism. I wonder how you would feel if the men in your office talked about your great ass. I wonder how you would feel if your male boss kissed you on the mouth. ... and you were powerless to do anything about it. There is a difference when one makes jokes about the oppressor than jokes about the oppressed.

    Men almost never use their power to penalize those who slander and insult men as a class. For instance the worst male bashers face no consequences.

    I was not talking about sexual harassment or reputation as individuals.

    No..that is a ridiculous stereotype. Women are just as logical as men and men are just as emotional as women. Ever go to a hockey game? Women are allowed to show emotion and men are impulsive

    Men face much worse -- constant stream of man hating and male bashing jokes, advertisement. Men as a class also face very much negative generalization and hatred.

    If any man talks about a female coworker in the way described, he will lose his job very quickly.

    Sounds like you need a support group. Why don’t you start a movement since you seem to think men are such victims, I get the feeling that when a woman criticizes patriarchy you see her as bashing men. I guess when you see black people fighting for civil rights you see them as bashing white people

    Yes all those blonde jokes are about men..yes and it’s always women making jokes about men’s bodies. And all those ads showing men half naked Men face so much sexual harassment against their wills. I really suggest you start a men’s support group because after all I am sure you are not the only victim of these horrible women who are taking over.

    I joined the movement against discrimination against men in 1996.

    No. But someone who says "men are pigs" or "men are trash" is the enemy.

    How good of you. Racism obviously doesn’t affect you, but sexism does

    I guess your movement worked because look at all the men that are now in Congress in positions of power. Wow you really made a difference
    Anyone who says men are pigs or men are trash is stupid. The same way men call women sluts and tramps for doing the same thing men do...and of course all women are bitches

    Thousands of such groups exist.

    Millions of men realize that they are discriminated against:

    You were emotional and assumed, while logic told you by getting me down to your emotional level, you'd have the advantage.
