At the moment, it seems popular to go to bat for women’s rights. This is a good thing. Women are still not treated equally to men. However, what about the guys?
It seems that the public’s opinion of men has been declining in the past 50 years. Just look at TV shows. In the days of ‘I Love Lucy’ and ‘The Brady Bunch’ the man was looked at as the wise leader of the family. Today, it seems that every father on TV is the bumbling caveman that can’t do anything but drink beer and put together the occasional coherent sentence.
While women’s public image has improved, men’s has gotten worse. How could this be? Is there only so much respect to go around that someone has to get cut short? Could it be that someone has to be upon the head of the goat?
Giving equal rights to everyone does not mean we should move around the pluses and minuses. It means the lower party should be lifted to the same status as the higher party.
