The problem, though (again), is the mindset of our society (which is what you alluded to). IOW, our culture has been brainwashed ad nauseum with shows, movies, false/half-truth articles, etc., that show men as not only bumbling fools but also as rapist, beer-drinking, good-for-nothing else (except a walking ATM machine) neandrethals.
The sad part is that many MEN buy into this themselves!
Again, it goes back to the three (well, two CIVIL) courses of action men can take. As I said before corporations are driven by money and if men can make an effort in that area, then the corporations will begin to take notice. But I don't really see that happening anytime soon.
I really think the passive action route will have greater affect than people will realize simply because it will do the same thing only "behind the scenes" instead of up front. Like many articles have said, men are just distancing themselves more and more from marriage, simply because it does nothing to benefit them today. Sexless marriages our on the rise, so any thought of "getting more" in a marriage is out the door. Divorce rates are still hovering around the 50% mark, and we all know how badly men get the shaft when it comes to that, so why challenge the odds?
Yes, there are other things that can be disassociated from marriage like DV, but that can be dealt with in parrallel with the passive stance WRT marriage men are taking.
Its funny, but your first two words were "I disagree" yet the gist of your response made me feel you are agreeing a lot more than disagreeing.
