What the feminists, in their proper concern for women, have neglected to point to our attention is that for every woman who is discouraged from working (by the whole of society, not just its economic or political components) there is a man forced by social convention to work; and for every bored and unfulfilled woman, there is a man burdened with the responsibility that only a primary wage-earner knows...
...in the name of eliminating sex-stereotyping, feminism reinforced some of the most fundamental and devastating stereotypes of all: the man as predator... stalking...powerful...base and insensitive...exploitive and untrustworthy...driven by uncontrollable and animalistic urges...
-Robert Haddad, 1979

Very interesting. Rings true for me. I feel sorry for guys - a lot of the time they don't seem to know whether they're Arthur or Martha (pardon the pun). The SNAG (Sensitive New Age Male) is a good case in point - he finally unbuttons enough to let himself have a good cry when things get too much, only to find that girls have changed their minds and want the strong, silent type back! Grrrr.
