What is Life Like for the Contemporary American Male ?

I recently had the experience of listening to my 77-year old mother and her 90-year old friend ramble on and on about how screwed up the young people are nowadays, and most of what they had to say was true enough. Yet I became a little irritated with them because they did not seem to have any understanding whatsoever as to why my generation is the way that it is, just that they were screwed up. I am in generation X, born in the Summer of 1968. My generation lives in the shadow of a monstrocity known as the baby boomer generation. And the way the baby boomers have conducted themselves both personally and professionally in this lifetime has pretty much ruined everything for my generation. I don't think it is possible to understand generation X without a good understanding of the nature of the generation that directly preceeded it. For someone in my age bracket, things began to spiral downhill quite early in life. It is quite something actually, the America that I remember, when I was under the age of 12. It was a magical world, we lived in a great country (not just militarily) that was putting men on the moon and we had a very strong middle class. My father was a business man, yet we lived next door to a blue collar guy that (in 1973) was making $17.00 an hour working in a manufacturing plant. The person that does his job now in 2012 earns $9.00 an hour. Everything began to change in 1980, right around the time baby boomers were entering the professional world. Many things changed, from the nature of television shows (which began to glorify greed and wealth around that time), and of course the election of Ronald Reagan was devastating to the middle class. For the first time in history, it became a good thing to steal from the middle class, such as the college benefits I was supposed to receive in exchange for my father having fought in the Korean War.

I make the year 1980 as the keystone year which eventually led to the destruction of the middle class and ultimately the status of the United States. Since that date, it has been just one thing after another that has reduced our status in society. So many things, it just cannot be chance. It seems deliberate to me. American males, and in particular white males, are being targeted now, from all sides, foreign and domestic, in so many different ways it is mind boggling. All of these extraneous things that occur in the world, even in one's own country, can be tolerated as long as one has a good family, a wife that loves you, and kids that love you, and vice versa. But now even that is questionable, and that also seems to be under attack as well. I have been blessed with having a good amount of friends in my adult life, I have ten close guy friends. They all got married. Of these, nine were eventually divorced. And all the divorces were filed by their wives. This seems to have everything to do with the way the legal system is set up. American women actually profit from divorce. I am an extremely intelligent person. Not to toot my own horn, but I have an advanced degree in physics from M.I.T., so that qualifies me to claim so. Maybe that is why I chose never to get married when I was young. Things were bad enough back in the late 80's and early 90's, but they are much worse now, so I do not see any reason to get married, ever. And the reproduction rate of very bright people has fallen through the basement as a result of this perception (which is based on reality.) The situation the United States is in is that it has created a situation in which only an idiot would get married, much less conceive a child. And that is precisely what is happening, no surprise there. Four of my friends have been put in jail because they couldn't pay child support, because of the economy.

Honestly, I can provide for myself, so why should I take on all the financial risk and incur the emotional devastation of a likely nasty divorce, and become enslaved dishing out alimony to an unappreciative leech ex-wife? Why? These guys are all miserable! I don't really see any motive for taking on marriage, I am quite happy on my own and I enjoy the freedom I have. I don't have anyone telling me when I can go out with my friends and so on. All of my friends went through relentless nagging and sometimes would tell me they felt like they were in prison. I'll take their word for it and I will avoid getting married like the plague, just as I decided years ago. There is nothing in it for me. From what I have witnessed with my own eyes and ears, it does not appear that women know anything about giving a man emotional support or offering anything real to a relationship. It seems like women carry their vaginas on a magic wand that they can wave and make all problems go away. I just see women who think it is a man's responsibility to cater to their every whim and hand over their paycheck. It appears like a prostitution arragement. You just can't actually call them a whore. But then why does the guy not get to be a pimp then? Maybe that's the solution. When a wife acts like a whore, then the man should start acting like a pimp. Now that would confuse her real nice. I would gladly share my paycheck with a woman I love, but how can you love a woman that treats you like an ATM machine? Its like, what have you done for me lately? And I'm not even talking about sex. As men, it seems we get nothing but insults, we are degraded all the time, and we have no rights of our own. There have been times when friends have had couple fights in front of me, and the whole time I'm thinking, Masturbation is not so bad afterall.

We now live in an era where women have made themselves so emotionally unattractive to men that men must now swallow powerful physiological mind-altering medications in order perform sexually. But women must realize this it is just a performance. It is just an act. Most men fantasize about other women most of the time. But when a man loves a woman, only extremely rarely does he need such medication. Erectile dysfunction has not been a problem for a billion years. Only until the emergence of the disease of feminism has such potent medication been needed. It became necessary in order to satisfy a female population accustomed to masturbating themselves in their I don't need a man phase with high-powered utilities run on transformers, and for other reasons such as unclassiness, brutishness, rudeness, lack of elegence, unappreciativeness and the profound selfishness that typically accompany feminist leanings. So, marriage has been ruined. And so has fatherhood been ruined along with it. Perception of men is either as predators or incompetent buffoons. What I don't get is why would all these feminist women want to have sons in a world like this? I don't get it. Do they want their own sons to suffer the way men are suffering now? Look at how violent young people have become. Some neighborhoods in the US are like virtual war zones. Why is this? I will tell you why. Lack of fathers. Mothers are generally incompetent when it comes to administering discipline. And these kids are justifiably pissed. They were deprived of fathers. These feminists couldn't bring themselves to supply that.

But there is no surprise there, no self-respecting man would subject themselves to a raging bitch just to get a little. Intelligent men are not ruled from below the belt, thus are impervious to the unclever simple manipulations of the jazzed-up bitchfest that is feminism. My experiences with women have been both positive and negative. But it certainly is not mandatory to crawl to the alter after a positive experience. That is like throwing a bucket of house paint on a painting, vandalism. When she calls me after an excellent night of wild sex, I usually tell her how unbelievably fantastic it was, and that I never want to see her again. This confuseth her circuits for a time, if not permanently cause them to short out. Unfortunately, it seems to work everytime. And thus, I have managed to keep my life unmarred. I feel sorry for those that made life's biggest error. It truly is a shame that in the world we live in today, that American men are not blessed with a good home life and loving wives, but rather capitalized upon by predatory women. I have chosen a path of not being one of their victims and have grown comfortable with who I am on my own, without need of approval of anyone else on the planet. I am me, I do not need anyone. But I still wish she was out there. But that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Oh well.
