An expected symptom of the continued war on masculinity.

I agree.

Men, and being male, are constantly being portrayed as "dumb" in entertainment.

We're dumb and everything we do is dumb. We couldn't make it through the day without a woman. Yada yada yada.

Horseshit.

It's just typical PC "over-correction". We can't simply say everyone is equal. No, we need to go ridiculously overboard the other way since women were oppressed for so long. We need to not only say women can do everything we can do, but we also need to say they can do it better.

I dunno. I really have no idea how to dress kids well, or do their hair, etc. Without my wife, my kids would be a disaster. If people want to call me dumb, so be it.

It reminds me of that thing Oprah did that took men out of their day jobs, and put them in charge of the kids in order to show how lost they were, not able to handle a woman's world. WHich is obvous, obvious bullshit.... you take anyone, anywhere, and put them into an unfamiliar environemtn, and you can watch them FISH OUT OF WATER for a day or so until they figure out routines and schedules and procedures and whatnot. Oprah didn't turn the cameras on the father 2 weeks later, because women would hate to see men doing it better and more efficiently because they had time to learn the system.

See: Mr. Mom.

I'm the same, but I don't like how that has translated to "men can't do ANYTHING without a woman."

I do not like how we're supposed to pretend women are physically equal to men. They aren't. Get over it.

Well right, you take my wife and put her in my job... and she's fish out of water as well.
