Pretty sure statistical data is more relevant than anecdotal evidence.

It's relevant if you are the one with the median income :roll:

Oh, come on :roll:

You have plenty of time for drama:

Looking over your posts, you reliably pick the less secure and less well-defended arguments to rip on.

It's equally fair to point out that the US has never had an unmarried president.

Women here have always been influential. You were major (maybe primary) contributors to the Civil War. It's all very sweet to say that Southern slaves should be freed, but you didn't have to do it:

And yes, now that you have direct power, we're going to insist that you give up the indirect kind. That's a sunshine provision.

Insurance companies and the media hate men that's why they encourage male bashing ads in the media.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCzlReYjWG4[/youtube][youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T09sp5e5jHo[/youtube]

They don't hate men,but some are reckless when younger,maybe more so for NT men.They tend to drive fast,act macho to try and impress the ladies and establish their rank as an alpha male.Once men each a certain age,your insurance rates drop dramatically,especially if you have a good driving record.

And there is no actual basis for that whatsoever, just hate for the sake of it, right. They are just bashing men without any relation to reality, just to overcharge them. All men are nice, nonviolent, decent citizens, and totally not into risky behavior.

Men pay more for insurance. We pay more for haircuts and a dozen other things.

Also your last sentence is a blatant generalization. To say that all men are nice, nonviolent, and cautious is just as absurd as saying that all men are reckless and violent.

i think it might be possible that cannotthinkoff was being ironic.

...plenty of whom eat it up. In canyons in the Southwest Desert there are invariably young men hopping out onto rock outcroppings 500 to 1,000 feet above the next plateau. Just as invariably, there are young women encourging them.

They don't have to do it. Girls don't have to dress like pole dancers, either. If you don't need attention from the opposite sex, you don't have to do much of anything.

It's not a male driven behavior. Patton used the word 'coward' to refer to someone who selfishly protected only himself. His definition of courage was altruistic and communal, not showboating.

From The Right Stuff: "It was not bravery in the simple sense of being willing to risk your life. The idea seemed to be that any fool could do that, if that was all that was required, just as any fool could throw away his life in the process."

Yeah hello it's sarcasm. To say that all men are angels is a lie, while to say that all men on average are more reckless and violent is a fact. Dont mean that they are.

^It's just a primitive mating ritual,like a turkey gobbling.Of course the hens are involved,that's why the males strut.
Statistics rule the insurance business,think of the movie The Darwin Awards
But I am biased,Daddy sold insurance.

Oh but you do. Girls dont dress up for men, they dress up for each other. Likewise, even more so, men parade their power and stupidity in front of other men to establish dominance. You can say that its sex driven, but then isnt everything? we're just sex machines right? Men go crazy macho to compete between themselves and they certainly need no encouragement. its male driven behavior. then the winner will get the girl, but no one asks for her opinion. thats just how it works, females are by default attracted to the winner.

Judges are mostly men, especially higher up. Men earn more, men have the final saying. What's the problem? Luckily tables are slowly turning around, future is not looking so bright for the men, haha.

This is true! All hail our new robot computer brained overlords!

Some are and some arent its just justified sexism towards men and yes sexism towards men exists, the media encourages male bashing giving people the idea that men are always the idiots doing idiotic things while women are always smart and mature and don't do stupid stuff at all. The irony is i have come across as many stupid women as men it baffles me why women try to copy my answers when taking a test in geology or any other scientific field I do tend to get the highest grade in the entire class yet I am a man ohhh the contradiction Im a male but intelligent how can that happen? How many others can learn a language like mandarin in only a few weeks and converse in it? I sure can as well as 8 other languages yet I am a male im supposed to be stupid, a doofus unable to accomplish anything other than be expected to fix a woman's car or a leaking faucet!

what are you talking about, the media is seriously getting to you. the stereotype is that women are stupid and incapable of independent thought at all. these tv shows and stuff, its only because men allow to have a laugh at their expense, and women dont, because when you've been oppressed for throusands of years, its not really funny. the same way that you cant do comedy about black people stereotypes. but you can about men, because thats not a man - thats a person. so these flaws are meant to represent humanitys flaws, not mens.. which just shows how sexist our society is. you're taking this thing too personally and perhaps because your life experience was different than that of an ordinary man.

There is no sexism towards men which would even compare to that women, other races and older/younger people face. A white middle class male really should not complain at the expense of other groups. And going back to the first point, just to emphasize, women are stupid - that's the stereotype, NOT the other way round. A few tv shows dont change that.
