Eggshells

I read an interesting book a few months back...can't quite remember the...oh yeah! "The Hidden Persuaders." Or something like that. Good book, good book....talks about the demonization of the parent figure, specifically the father figure by TV shows.. Yes, this book explains how Howdy Doody demonizes the adult male figure in a child's life. It was written back in the fifties. Since I've read this book I've actually seen it occuring in the media, the father is made to look like a dimwit in situations where men naturally thrive. I see women thinking circles around men when it comes to cars, construction and sports. No, nuh-uh, not right, right? Well, maybe a little...but men aren't ding-dongs. I mean, seriously here folks, it's gone from a tidbit of humor to some sort of sadistic brainwashing. Now, getting to the name of this post: "Eggshells" That's how I feel when I'm discussing these sorts of things. I mean, here I am, posting something that's sure to get the femininists all up in arms, when all I'm doing is defending the men in this world who really do know what a carburator is. Now, I may be wrong, but in discussions with liberals, femininists, and mixes of the both, defending something they don't believe in isn't protected speech, it's dangerous bigotry.

Okay, maybe I'm going a bit overboard, but it's how I feel, and that's what counts, right? Well, it is to me. Anyhooo, quite frankly I'm a little sick of my fellow men being beaten down by the women of the media. I'm tired of seeing my own archetype being belittled before my very eyes. Especially since it's been a reported brainwashing tactic since the fifties. Here's to walking on eggshells, peeps!
