Gender Rules of Today

1. Women want full independence but Women want male protection when things get rough or dangerous
2. Men and women can vote but The draft and compulsory military service are male only
3. Men are expected to work in jobs that they do not care for to support their families but Men are lazy for not doing half of the housework
4. When boys perform badly in school there is a “crisis in masculinity” but When girls perform badly they are being discriminated against
5. Women “get rid of jerks” but Men “cannot commit”
6. Male circumcision is a proud tradition but Female circumcision is abhorred, even the kinds that are milder than male circumcision
7. Commenting on a woman’s cleavage is sexual harassment but A woman who purposely flaunts her cleavage at work is not sexually harassing anyone
8. All good men pay for the date but All good men support gender neutral pay
9. Men’s financial power must be controlled but Women’s sexual power must be liberated
10. Fathers should take care of their children but children aren’t DNA tested to establish paternity
11. Men prey on women but Women exercise their sexual freedom
12. The overarching inconsistency: Men are responsible for their actions and failures — Women are victims of circumstances or societal structures
