Well, it is hard to argue with this. Men are just people, too. But, women are hurt by this bias, too. If a man is not successful, that is one less good marriage prospect for a woman.
If you want a good example of anti-male bias, just think about what rights/privileges a man gets the day he gets married.
Hmmm…. Nobody I know can name even one.
But responsibilities abound for the married man.
In divorce proceedings, the man almost always gets hammered. The more he has done for his wife, the more the court hammers him, too.
Is it any wonder that men these days seem to be in no rush to avoid marriage?
Now, this avoidance of marriage in no way injures men, but, it does injure women. Women I know in their mid twenties are getting nervous about not having a suitable marriage partner in sight. Because of our anti-male societal bias, many young men are not really good marriage prospects. And, because of their reproductive biology, women need to get serious about marriage before they are 30. Men don’t. So, these women will either not find suitable partners or will have to marry older men. Neither option is especially attractive.
Just something to think about.
