This is nothing new. The media blaming a certain something for why men aren't "men" or some shit, when it's really just been the feminist movement as a whole causing it. Chivalry is dead and feminism killed it, because angry women don't want to be 'insulted' by having the door held open for them or whatever the fuck.

Guys stand to lose everything in relationships, even if a prenup is made, thus guys lose interest in making relationships, or even being "manly" whatever the fuck that means. Also video games is a great scapegoat for ANYTHING you can possibly make up.

>His grades are dropping! Must be the video games
>He doesn't have a girlfriend! Must be the video games
>He goes out and parties all night and drinks himself into oblivion! Must be the video games

There's no logic to anything when it comes to media sensationalism.

The article is comparing video games to fucking heroin and coke abuse - it's bullshit through and through.

Well it's kinda of true.... but they didn't mention the reasons why men are using video games & porn to escape reality. Have they looked at the opposite gender recently? They now have more power over men, this is because women want special treatment, so big corporate brother implements laws revolving around women. How can men be "MEN!" if women can lie about rape and throw us in jail?

How can men be MEN if society has absolutely no fucking clue what it's going to do next? A hundred years ago, they had SOOO much more to look forward to, such as traveling to the moon. What do we have? All we look forward to is the next Avengers film and Call of Duty, that's it. Men are losing motivation because our society/species is losing motivation because something is holding us back from taking the next step.

Just so you guys know this is exactly the kind of fringe-writer reactionary sensationalist bullshit you call out the less educated and older people for falling victim to whenever they watch Fox News, you're literally no better.

Does anyone see the inconsistency with saying gaming has turned males into lazy do-nothings then using an example of a guy playing games while he dedicates his life to killing a shit-ton of people?

I do agree with some of the articles that discuss the "pussification" of young men, and theres some merit to it. It's harder to be driven o now with all the convenience of technology, lack of work/competition, and the devaluing of men.

It just pisses me off when people think i'm lazy. I'm not lazy, I can just do shit faster than then walking around the city trying to find a job. It's difficult to live or hard to move out on a Part-Timers salary and shit is kinda against us. Our dad's generation is never going to understand that.

Expected what I got.
A tame study which shows that addiction is bad, and that the items on their own aren't bad things, but that being addicted to them is harmful.

well that's kind of true, but there are other factors that contribute to the feminization of man. I recomend watch Fight club, he talks a little about this, and read The way of the superior man-great book

>society can still be fixed

Out of wedlock births are soon to be at 50%, most marriages end in divorced (majority initiated by women, and for no real reason other than her not being happy anymore), marriage rates are plummeting. We are long past saving society, the only thing we can do is watch it crumble and hope we can rebuild.

No they aren't quite the opposite. Those types of brains are the exact kind that rip apart academics, they want new and more information to twist it up and use it. Proper academics isn't sitting in a room and repeating the same thing ad infinitum. It's gathering data, producing new ways of thinking about data. Academics in practice see a lot of repetition, but that's for data collection and in many ways that can be just as interesting for a while or even automated sometimes or even sourced out.

Charge of Irascibility (Code Red)

Discussion: The target is accused of having anger management issues. Whatever negative emotions he has are assumed to be unjustifiable. Examples:

“You’re bitter!”
“You need to get over your anger at women.”
“You are so negative!”

Response: Anger is a legitimate emotion in the face of injustice. It is important to remember that passive acceptance of evil is not a virtue.

Porn IS bad. But it's not just men who are guilty of abusing it.

No I'm not some moralfag, nor am I a Christian. But porn desensitizes the brain to sexuality, and creates a false image of what it's really supposed to be about. It's not about etching tallies into your bedpost. Sex can be about many things, stress relief, boosting morale and self-esteem, and sometimes compassion, trust, and on very rare occasions, love (not to be confused with lust). Porn has turned sex from something personal, healthful, and spiritual into something purely social.

And because of porn, every woman thinks every dick below 7 inches is small, and men think there's no risk of getting shit on your dick when you fuck a girl in the ass.

The world's view on sex is pretty fucked up, and it's undeniably because of unrealistic depictions of sex in pornography.

I get it. You guys don't want to change, even if there were stronger evidence that porn, excess gaming, and excess solitude aren't good for a developing person, they would reject it. It's similar to how to south opposed getting rid of slavery. It's their way of life, so don't expect it to go away.

What's so wrong about someone being polite and nice to you?

If someone is holding the door open for me, I'll look them in the eyes and give a smile while thanking them because that's the polite thing to do. If we're both going inside or both leaving and there's another door (like at some restaurants), I'll rush ahead and open the next door for them in return. Why? Because it's nice.

Chivalry was dead the moment women demanded they were men's equals.

I've come to realize after dating and fucking 28 women in the past four years that the only thing I miss about relationships was the sex, which I don't even like that much to begin with.

I don't want offspring yet, so there is absolutely no point in me wasting my time with a needless relationship with a woman I don't want. It's not like there's only one girl out there for me and if I miss my chance with her then it's gone forever. When I'm ready for kids, there will always be someone within my standards who I can get committed to, unless some sort of apocalyptic event happens.

>>140853506
I have no idea how you make the connection that porn makes sex "purely social". I don't see what that has to do with anything.

That it gives unrealistic expectations about sex and can be desensitizing, probably. After looking at perfect women with nicely bleached anuses for years the real thing doesn't seem so great, sometimes.

Why do we need an excuse? If we earn the money to pay for our hobby, we are doing as much for society as anyone.

And maybe, if by some apocalyptic madness, females become desperate in terms of being able to find suitable partners, they will have to find a way to impress men for the first time in history. God fucking forbid?

Seriously, where are the studies of the way adolescent female culture is "degrading"? Because genuinely, it is "as bad or worse" to put it in the arguments terms, when compared to adolescent male culture.

Because even though I'm independent enough that I live on my own, the broader ideal of self-sufficiency is ever more MADE UP BULLSHIT.

Think, who wants you to move out at 18, go to college on a loan, graduate, get a job, get 10 loans to pay for a house, car, and more. That's the path to "self sufficiency." And it starts over every generation.

Only western civilizations believe in this bullshit where it's "MANLY MACHO MEN" that abandon their previous family to go and start their own.

In nearly all eastern societies, families support and grow their success as a unit, for multiple generations. A proper family has enough wealth to take care of dozens of scions.

But again, who REALLY wants you to sever all ties with your parents and dump yourself out in the world with no resources, credit, or industry? Who really profits from "pressing reset" on every generation?

The answer might surprise you.

It's most likely attributed more to people being fucking idiots, like yourself.
This shit gets passed around long before porn and most women don't even watch excessive amounts or a lot.
