I was looking for some background information on another topic when I stumbled across a website. I thought it was very interesting. Here's the link
Mission Statement | Women for Men
So what do you think? Is there a war going on against masculinity in the United States?
What does that have to do with anything? That's a medical treatment and has nothing to do with anything being talked about. In any event, considering that doctors have stopped giving the stuff out like they did some time ago with female hormones due to health concerns, the industry isn't probably growing like it did not that long ago. Notice how the commercials have stopped? There is a reason for that.
Nope, and you have no idea what's it's like to be a white woman...I've experienced racist attitudes against me for being white I've never physically witnessed any racism towards others. I recognize that it exists but I can never condone social programs that trample on the rights of others in order to make up for past and current racial discrimination. You don't fight discrimination with more discrimination and right now a lot of people seem to be okay with that and it's the white man getting the short end of the stick.
Unfortunately, everything masculine is being made synonymous with misogynistic, overly macho and ignorant.
The end was in sight when the term "metrosexual" was coined. Limp wrist sissy boys in skinny jeans almost asexual are the norm in many places.
Yes, specifically from the government with programs set in place that very specifically discriminate against them in order to try to help combat discrimination in the past of minorities and possible present day discrimination.

How did the men of USA allowed this to happen?
There are extremists on just about any issue. So perhaps, there are "some" women out there waging a war. But is the "United States" waging a war on masculinity. It depends. How do you define masculinity? If you think that John Wayne, image of a man defines masculinity then you will probably find a war. I look at that and see an evolution. So, how do you define it?

Being a fem man has become the in thing and macho types are mocked and ridiculed.
We're asked to become more intellectualized, which has brought attention toward those who did not and will not fit into the "macho" types. Don't worry though, feminists are still often quite disturbed by the world view and attitude of those men.
How many of you guys bitching about a war on men fish or hunt? How many of you are fit and strong? How many of you can crank out 10 or more pull-ups and 50 or more push-ups in a set? How many of you work on your own vehicles? How many of you can throw a pack on and spend a week in the wilderness backcountry on foot by yourself?
If you can't do these things then you need to STFU about a supposed "War on Men" because you have waved the white flag of surrender long ago.

Against masculinity? I'm not 100% sure about that. There are, however, certain laws and situations which are firmly set up against men, those mentioned in the article for instance. The laws and courts should be blind to sex.
Let me ask something very specific then. Do you see the attempts by some feminists to create a genderless world as an attack on men?

Oh there is. Big time.
We're five years away from the straight white male getting pelted with rotten fruit when walking in public.
Well....certainly you...and probably won't take five years.
