American Manliness
Good website, in general, with good tips and a manly man's place to find his lost masculinity in the US.
This 3-part article (3rd is pending) is about the loss of the American man's independence in the Industrial Revolution and how we've become slaves to the system of mindless drudgery, to feed corporate big-wigs. I do personally see a light at the end of this tunnel, however. Given the current economy and the massive loss of jobs and livelihood both in the US and globally, the traditional office job is going the way of the dodo. I believe that a new age is dawning, wherein the American man will have to redefine himself and become more self-sufficient, unable to rely on the system or corporate assistance to help him and his family survive. This is going to be a very painful transition, though, especially for those who don't have or don't know their transferrable skills, or don't get retrained in a "portable skill".

Masculine men have a tendancy to overthrow governments and lynch politicians when there homeless and theres no food to eat. So our friends in government teamed up with movie directors to let us know that feminist bitches will save western civilization in case that happens.
Hollywood decided western movies(a male genre) needed to be feminized so they gave us Sharon Stone in "The Quick and the Dead"(1995). She's very angry the entire movie.

Or theres "Relic Hunter" where every episode includes a fight scene with 115 lb. Tia Carrere kicking some guys ass. Her wimpy sidelick is added to enforce the idea men are useless in combat.

Young Women's Pay Exceeds Male Peers'
By CONOR DOUGHERTY
The earning power of young single women has surpassed that of their male peers in metropolitan areas around the U.S., a shift that is being driven by the growing ranks of women who attend college and move on to high-earning jobs.
In 2008, single, childless women between ages 22 and 30 were earning more than their male counterparts in most U.S. cities, with incomes that were 8% greater on average, according to an analysis of Census Bureau data released Wednesday by Reach Advisors, a consumer-research firm in Slingerlands, N.Y.
Real Time Economics
Cities Where Women Outearn Male Counterparts The trend was first identified several years ago in the country's biggest cities, but has broadened out to smaller locales and across more industries. Beyond major cities such as San Francisco and New York, the income imbalance is pronounced in blue-collar hubs and the fast-growing metro areas that have large immigrant populations.
The greatest disparity is in Atlanta, where young, childless women were paid 121% the level of their male counterparts, according to Reach Advisors.
These women have gotten a leg up for several reasons. They are more likely than men to attend college, raising their earning potential.
Between 2006 and 2008, 32.7% of women between 25 and 34 had a bachelor's degree or higher, compared with 25.8% of men, according to the Census.
And men have been disproportionately hit by heavy job losses in blue-collar industries.
"I expect the trend to continue," said Andrew Beveridge, a professor at Queens College at the City University of New York, who has studied the phenomenon.
While these particular women earn more than their male peers, women on the whole haven't reached equal status in any particular job or education level. For instance, women with a bachelor's degree had median earnings of $39,571 between 2006 and 2008, compared with $59,079 for men at the same education level, according to the Census.
At every education level, from high-school dropouts to Ph.D.s, women continue to earn less than their male peers.
Also, women tend to see wages stagnate or fall after they have children.

I think those US guys who venture into strange lands and make a living there are very masculine. I think that my feat of making a living on the Internet while living in the chaotic land of the Philippines and supporting a girlfriend and helping her to get on her own two feet and encouraging her is masculine, too. That is beyond independence if you ask me.
Women make less money than men simply because they do not get into the professions that men get into. The author of the last article conveniently omitted what those Ph Ds and BAs of the women were in.

A brain is a terrible thing to wash!
awesome site. men need to become men again and take back the world for themselves. now we got men pretending to be women and women pretending to be men. it makes me sick. theres nothing more strong/powerful than a good man and he wont take shit. now i look around and i just see these 17 year old boys with skinny jeans and eyeliner. another thing, real men dont take fake women as wives. they wouldnt stand for it. if we take the reins the women will have to become worthy, to be ladies again, to get any hope of finding a good husband. and they'll do it, biology pays off.
