ability both fortune good men
Not many men have both good fortune and good sense.
burden children count developing either everywhere global home men pretend raising reward work
Everywhere in the world, men place all or most of the burden of raising children and maintaining the home on women, but pretend that this burden is not work; they do not reward it as work or count it as work in global accounting, in either developing
equality men feels
Men seem unable to feel equal to women: they must be superior or they are inferior
men roots effort
Men's need to dominate women may be based in their own sense of marginality or emptiness; we do not know its root, and men are making no effort to discover it.
men faces strange
It's strange how men feel they have the right to criticize a woman's appearance to her face.
simple men bombs
When a man loses superiority, he loses potency. That's what all this talk about castrating women is about. Castrating women are those who refuse to pretend men are better than they are and better than women are. The simple truth - that men are only equal - can undermine a culture more devastatingly than any bomb. Subversion is telling the truth.
powerful men dominance
Control over a woman is the only form of dominance most men possess, for most men are merely subjects of more powerful men.
hate men radical-feminism
All men are rapists and that's all they are
men color age
Women are afraid in a world in which almost half the population bears the guise of the predator, in which no factor - age, dress, or color - distinguishes a man who will harm a woman from one who will not.
fall mean men
My feelings about men are the result of my experience. I have little sympathy for them. Like a Jew just released from Dachau, I watch the handsome young Nazi soldier fall writhing to the ground with a bullet in his stomach and I look briefly and walk on. I don’t even need to shrug. I simply don’t care. What he was, as a person, I mean, what his shames and yearnings were, simply don’t matter.
men feminism dominance
The same men who are blind and deaf to feminism are acutely sensitive to what threatens their dominance and privilege.
real home men
For men to focus on controlling women's reproduction to solve a society's problems seems nothing short of mad or, at best, superstitious. But men's superstition or insanity has real and dire consequences for the women who are its object. And states, too, home in on women's bodies, perhaps to create the illusion that men are in control of uncontrollable forces. Indeed, almost all governments try to control women's bodies and regulate their appearance in some way.

To nourish children and raise then against odds is in any time, any place, more valuable than to fix bolts in cars or design nuclear weapons.
