I heard someone theorize that the effects of feminism are a couple of decades further along in the black community than in the white community. And that in due time, it will get just as bad among whites. Not sure about that, but it may have some merit.
Btw I have self-identified as a "male feminist" for most of my life, but I have changed my tune lately. Now, don't get me wrong... I still believe there were too many societal barriers to women pursuing certain avenues in life prior to the feminist movement, but I feel it stopped being about equality and started being about attacking and disadvantaging men.
Nowadays we have a situation where men are basically just treated like piggy banks, the attitude of a lot of women becomes "well, I don't need you around because the government will still force you to pay child support even if you're gone, so GTFO"
Men's contributions to society used to be respected and admired. The father, the provider, the head of the household... he was looked up to as a societal pillar. Sometimes, in those days... he would abuse his position and hit his wife or kids, be overly controlling... and that was another thing that needed to be addressed. But now we live in a time when the fact that most domestic abuse is actually at the hands of women is ignored, when our society and government pretty much act like women cannot be offenders in this regard or men cannot be victims. Very far from the truth.
Men are denied access to victim services, men are denied any sort of choice whatsoever about becoming a father, men are denied any respect or power in a relationship, men are denied access to their children, and control of their money if the woman desires it.
Society has sent men a very clear message when it comes to the family. You aren't needed, you are disposable and can be removed from this situation at any time. Your rights as a father are non-existent, and any access to your kids you end up with just feel lucky you got because your wife or the court systems which will side with her pretty much every time, dained to allow it.
Also our schools now have woefully few male teachers, and the entire curriculum is more geared toward female learning. Our entire society has moved toward the more female model of worrying more about feelings than facts, and studying things which only produce jobs in re-teaching that same subject... our society has stopped appreciating or looking up to or championing real work, the work that builds and sustains a nation and a civilization. The work that has always been done overwhelmingly by men and still is.
Boys are struggling in school, in college... male identity is in crisis. Each male raised without a father figure is missing crucial puzzle pieces to becoming a man himself.
In a society like we used to have where female aspirations and educational needs were not being fully addressed, the bad result of that was some women being unfulfilled.
Now in a society where we've over-corrected for that HUGELY, the danger of wayward directionless men in a society that doesn't give them good role models, doesn't respect what they can contribute... well, the consequences are far, far worse.
Because when men are directionless like that, they start being criminals, or if they're homeless as 94% of homeless are in fact men... the services available, the degree to which the society gives a shit, is a fraction of if the homeless person is female.
But once these social shifts have even more decades to solidify and work their "magic" even more men will become wayward criminals who eat away at the fabric of society. Who make the streets less safe. Who aren't contributing to society continuing. This affliction will spread increasingly to ALL culture groups, as it is doing.
