Where have all the real men gone???? 

            Is it just me; or does it seem like there is a real decline in the quality of men nowadays? I mean I’m not even on the market and thankfully I have a boyfriend that was raised with real man sensibilities, and please all the tree hugging hipsters do not pretend that you don't know what  I mean by real men. I’m talking about the type of guy who handles his business, works without complaint, takes care of himself as well as his family (or girlfriend) It seems like now all these guys do is complain. Cry about how much and how hard they work. Really dude? You have to work hard and you have to work a lot and you’re going to cry about it? Well welcome to adulthood, sheesh! How did this happen? When did our men become so weak?

            I have a few theories (by a few I mean two, that counts as a few right?)and I honestly think I might upset a few of the women folk on this one but I have to say ladies, theory number one is it’s our fault.

          We have made our men weak.  From mothers to Girlfriends to wives we haven’t let our men be real men. Now before all you pseudo feminists (pseudo only because your views are conveniently feministic when they best serve you, I by no means am talking about real feminists) get your chastity belts in a bunch let me explain, we have spent so much of our time saying that we want sensitive men who are in touch with their feminine side that it actually is starting to happen! And what’s even worst is that we don’t mean it! No guys we don’t want you to be more in touch with your feminine side because that would make you male versions of us! What we really want is for you to understand us and where we come from unfortunately for us we cannot deal with you understanding our (all too often illogical point, illogical because most-I said MOST not ALL-women are emotional not logical thinkers) point but not siding with us and because men take direction very well they followed suit and now we have an army of weakened men walking around defeated with their tails between their legs.

          Theory number two, it’s societal. Society in general is going through what seems to be a wussification. An all-around softening has taken place because of political correctness and other social no no’s. This makes This makes it increasingly difficult for men to take traditional sex roles because that is viewed as archaic but guess what, there was a reason for traditional sex roles in the first place and that reason was they worked, helped society function as well as interpersonal relationships (gee could the change in traditional sex roles be attributing to the higher divorce rate???)  And no I do not mean that women shouldn’t vote or any other such nonsense you may be thinking in your new age brain, I mean there was a time when Men did what Men do and Women did what Women do and it all worked out. Can we just please figure this out!

          With that said I do give much respect to the real men out there, you know who you are. Keep doing what you do and for the love of God teach these young men to step up the plate and become real men and to those of you who have been wussified dry your eyes, take a deep breath, do a shot of wheatgrass and meditate on what it means to be a real man and I’m sure in your euphoric state of mind you will come to understand what is meant by all this (insert eye roll and head swivel to illustrate sarcasm that may have been missed).
