The constant "us vs them" gender warfare undertones on this forum would be laughable if they weren't so exhausting.
Men continually post threads about how women have too much power, about how no woman loves them, and about how they want to stay single.
Women continually post threads about how they face some glass ceiling, about how men are abusive jerk bags, and how there don't seem to be enough of us left worth dating.
I'll answer both of these questions right here and right now.
Men - stop it, just stop. You need to understand that we're not doing our part either. Out of the men who go to college, many of them don't graduate at a much greater rate than women who go to college. If you want a high paying job, you need a degree in a down economy. Women still gravitate towards men who make above average salaries. Either accept that you need to do more than you should have to in order to please a woman, or just stop complaining about it. Life isn't fair, and those are the rules of engagement.
If you want to find a woman worth keeping, then ignore the salary comment, but be prepared to do a lot of leg work.
If you meet a woman who treats you poorly, then dump her to the curb and keep going. Don't go on a tirade about how all women are evil and become some bitter burned out husk of a man. It's not attractive, and it ensures you're always going to be passed over. You'll never find a woman worth keeping with that attitude.
Women - you need to stop it too. Society is playing catch up for the past few hundred years of treating you like second class citizens. In many industry verticals, you will find you have equal treatment already. Men are also being thrown under the bus right now - these are poor economic times. Please do not automatically assume because you are a female that the job you have (or don't have) is due to your gender.
In the future, you may even find yourselves being treated better than men are, because of a number of socioeconomic factors that I'm not going to cover, and also because men aren't securing the necessary education to stay competitive. You may well be able to look forward to a day where you are the primary breadwinner in the relationship. I'm not even going to cover what this does to a man, but suffice it to say it can be painful for a large number of them.
You're also going to have to do a lot of leg work to find a date. That's just how it is.
To my sisters in third world countries, I am sorry, you truly do have legitimate grievances. Perhaps in time this will not be the case.
I'm pretty sure that's everything I had to say. Sorry for the wall of text, although frankly there is a good chance that no one will read it any ways
