Men in Pink???

IDK what's wrong with me. I saw the title, knew that whatever the fuck was to follow would be inflammatory and now, I feel flames. I cannot even comment or read the comments for fear of exploding.

It opens with a slap in the face i.e "women's work" is obsolete (except that me saying this is underhanded and pretty much proving that it isn't. Because you know exactly what kind of work I'm taking about. Holding babies and shit.)

 And follows up with a "just in case you see right through this veiled attempt of sexism" some women are successful.

*queue the women 'that made it.' list*

But look out, because they didn't just make it! They took it from males! Males who did not take the extra step in getting higher degrees or better certified or pursuing xyz.  It's a role-reversal.

Because men do X. And women to Z. And when they switch it isn't just idk men doing what men do and women doing what women do as though either gender/sex has a claim on any particularly action (besides peeing standing up. Which is really C00L).

Moving on to something so misogynistic that I cannot even attempt to exemplify it. Therefore I quote:

men have been finding their way through the old girls’ network for over a decade.

And you wanna know why? Because there are no more jobs for men! They're gone. So men have to do women's work. No matter what. It's not at all like Zoolander. Where idk maybe men are interested in building relationships with patients (men who are nurses) or men giving a damn about future generations (men who are teachers) or idk here's something that might blow a mind, they're skill set is more suited to certain position regardless of the stereotype this super unbias journalist is perpetuating?

Couldn't be. No, this recession has only affected jobs for men. Jobs for women are primo (I've been unemployed for like forever). But this started before the recession right? Do you mean the recession before the depression before the recession? Or the recession before the recession before the depression before the recession? Because unless you're talking about the fucking 90s, the economy for ALL OF THE FIRST DECADE of the millennium has been in the tank.

More quotes because I cannot even try to put this in my own words without blowing a gasket. I quote:

The kicker is that men tend to earn more than women even in these female-dominated fields. White males in particular may get a ride on the glass elevator, moving up through a professional hierarchy while women in traditionally male-dominated jobs are more likely to hit the glass ceiling.

The kicker? Is this a game to you? Peoples'--who are both men and women--livelihoods are at stake. Statements of the fact are one thing, necessary even to establish a baseline in meaningful dialogue. That shit right there is a dismissal. It's a mean-spirited threat for women to know that they will always be second class. It is inspiringly ignorant, discriminatory, and shows a tactless regard for human rights, equality, and treating others with dignity.

And you don't want me to hate? You want me to like this? To think it's acceptable? Acceptable to parade around misogyny or at the very minimum turn a statistical fact into fodder and means to promote unguided braggadocio?

Last quote:

Give a white man a fighting chance. 

GET A FUCKING HISTORY BOOK. A BOOK ABOUT HISTORY ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME ABOUT ANY SUBJECT WRITTEN AT ANY DATE.

Holy fucking chauvinist. This guys name is actually Dick. It's one thing to have privilege. It's another thing to excuse it and coddle it and wave it around laughing that other men don't have it anymore. I mean what the fuck is that. This guy isn't just a misogynist. He's a misanthropist and it is a terrible shame offensive to people--both men and women--everywhere.
