Upper-(middle-)class women in the West are some of the most privileged, protected people on Earth, yet many complain about situations others would handle in stride. Punishing work? Has anyone ever heard of a woman DYING from housework? Men die from stress or heart attacks from a white-collar desk job, or workplace injuries in a blue-collar job requiring physical labor.

"The have-it-all dream has turned into a do-it-all nightmare." Isn't this the case for EVERYONE? How do these women think the men they observe living the good life acquired the good life? They see the glamour of the limousines, designer suits, power lunches, and high-rise condos, but not the years of blood, sweat, and tears it took to get there.

These bitches are a joke, as men we have to do everything possible in order to get a girl to have sex with us! What do women have to do? Just sit there and show some cleavage, THAT'S ALL! WHAT A JOKE!

I strongly disagree with the presumption that men have it easier than women. ABSURD! The majority of CEO and higher level job titles in all fields are filled by men. These are incredibly stressful jobs, and there is a good reason why men do this work better than women. As a woman, I think it only seems that women have more stress: we (women) do not handle stress as well as men. It is not in our genetic make-up to successfully handle such a high level of stress. That's a fact! (Hormones, ladies!)

God-damn women want control and when they get it through any means necessary...then they can't handel it. Their never happy and their always depressed. Their always looking for something better and their pissed-off at you if you can't, (or won't,) give it to them NOW! All of this bullshit from a protected class of people who have special rights and unbelieveable advantage in American life. I say piss on em'. Women are a want; not a need. They need us...we don't need them. Take your balls back.

@dystopianlover Women have it SO much better than women at work. The "sexual harassment" bullshit and accusations of sexism when things don't go their way have allowed women to have an advantage over men even in the job market. If you don't attend professional development courses or work overtime and a man does, how is HIS fault that he puts in the effort and you don't? The profession a woman works is her choice, not something the "patriarchy" gives you, and women ARE ditch diggers and soldiers.

Preach it, Tom!

@laughingstalk Exactly!!!!

@dystopianlover Thank you.

We women sure have it tough at work. If it's not a lack of promotions due to our inability to attend professional development courses or invest in overtime, it's 'sexual harassment'. Why does our society have us slave away as visual artists and teachers when we should be doing all the cruisy jobs - jobs the nasty & opportunistic men (Boo! Hiss!) have been coveting! - like ditch-digging, frontline military operations and the operation of heavy machinery?

Why must the patriarchy keep us down?

FACT: American women (in general) are NEVER satisfied. So of course they are going to moan and bitch that they have it worse then men, without any logic to back it up.
