Ya know, I was gonna say something egalitarian. Sure women have harder, less rewarding work, in general. Sure there are issues with fertility and body image and the historic subjugation of women. There's rape and religion and money and babies and nasty images of women in magazines and evil uteruses and evil mothers in law, but there are good things about being a woman, too.
And then I was gonna talk about men having stricter roles in society, not being able to 'choose' between family and work without some social stigma attached, how it's harder for men (and boys) who are victims of domestic & sexual violence to speak up and get help, how it's harder for men and boys to learn socially-acceptable & appropriate ways to be affectionate and nurturing...
Then I found this

I'm going to my woman-cave to eat chocolate and throw hissy-fits. Piss off.
