Now you tell me biology compels men to look at mass market, digitally altered images rather than perpetuating the species by copulating with the opposite sex.
so true. too fucking funny. but but but... you are being all that in intellectual and logical. it cannot be. whe emotion hysteria is our only driving factor.
It really is quite remarkable how you've avoided learning any history whatsoever, so much so that you assume that your current ethos and media preference for the prepubescent form is somehow natural. As though beauty standards haven't changed at all, as thought men by biological imperative are destined to fixate on exactly what corporate capitalism tells them they should. Just think that equal opportunity law, as founded in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, flies in the face of biology. The idea that the chronically insecure cannot create a hostile environment designed to drive women from public spaces is what. . . .hopelessly doomed because men can't possibly be expected to avoid their biological imperative to litter the workplace with girly mags?
that would be that cult like new religion of evo psychology that have all the men in an uproar of hysteria holding up their man cards, all in the name of a debunked science.

All that "misandry" comprises of is the stupid gender roles pushed by men backfiring.

Almost all of the bad outcomes for men can be traced back to patriarchal expectations.

No sensible feminist or human being in general is trying to make a man feel bad for being a man.
