Monday Madness
Posted by Michelle Moquin on June 3rd, 2013
Good morning!
I feel like all I keep saying is how sick some men can be. But then I keep reading writes that proves it over and over again. There’s never not enough news to be written on this subject to keep my blog busy. And I keep posting them because I am so sick (there’s that word again) of reading them over and over and not seeing much progress in changing this extremely bad attitude and behavior of men.
Is anyone feeling the same same? Are we just getting so used to it, that nothing is surprising anymore, because it is so damn prevalent in our society?I’m not used to it – never will be. It still sickens me and shocks me. Especially when I don’t see the outrage that should be heard on a daily basis from women and men when men say such sick things?
Let me be blunt here. When will women get that some men just think we are a receptacle to drop their load in? They want to put us back on the shelf for use whenever they are horny and need their needs met, or they need to be waited on. When will women learn that we need to stick together because men are always waiting in the wings to divide and conquer?
Here it is. Plain and simply said on FOX News: Men suggesting that women are inferior.
All-Male Fox Panel Freaks Out About Female Breadwinners
The all-male panel on Wednesday’s “Lou Dobbs Tonight” was in total agreement about the deep danger posed to society by women bringing home the bacon.
The Fox Business host fulminated about a recently released Pew study which showed that women were the sole or primary breadwinners in four out of ten households with children. There have been many nuanced reactions to the study, but Dobbs and his guests agreed that it was a complete catastrophe for the country.
Juan Williams said it was “something going terribly wrong in American society, and it’s hurting our children, and it’s going to have impact for generations to come.”
Fellow guest Erick Erickson said it was a downright repudiation of nature itself.
“When you look at biology, look at the natural world, the roles of a male and a female in society, and other animals, the male typically is the dominant role. The female, it’s not antithesis, or it’s not competing, it’s a complementary role. We as people in a smart society have lost the ability to have complementary relationships in nuclear families, and it’s tearing us apart.”
“The politicians won’t say it,” Williams said. “They won’t admit this!”
At no point were women invited to share their thoughts.
UPDATE: One woman, Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren, reacted with disbelief:
Have these men lost their minds? (and these are my colleagues??!! oh brother… maybe I need to have a little chat with them if it isn’t too late….)
*****
Greta: You act so surprised like you didn’t know these men were like they are. Hello…do you ever listen to half the stuff that comes from their mouths or are you just usually in agreement with them? I mean you do work for FOX news. I don’t watch enough of FOX, and I honestly don’t know anything about you, except that you work for FAUX news and that says a lot. Perhaps you are just waking up and realizing just how sick they are. If so, you have no excuse to not be on their case about a lot more than this. They most likely will not change but it is never too late to stand up for your sisters and be a loud voice. I’m happy you did this time. I HOPE you continue to.
Readers: The panel is freaking out. I’m freaking out over their sick attitude. What should be in large letters across America is how men’s attitude and behavior is ruining our society. Not that women are earning more and it’s hurting our children. What’s hurting our children is allowing men and boys to run around with 30 magazine guns killing our children at will. Whats hurting our children is the pedophile men who prey on them. That’s what is tearing apart our society, not female breadwinners. When will men take responsibility for their sick actions, instead of once again blaming women for how messed up our society is?
Sick. How many times did I use that word this morning? There’s plenty more to say about this panel’s discussion. Your turn. Blog me.
Happy Monday – Let’s get this week off to a good start – OK? Thanks for being here with me. Peace out.

Hi Mischa, nice post yesterday : ) and thank you for the compliments, though John, are you for real, dude? What the heck? Too pretty to concern myself about fellow humans and not lock step with a white rethug? Hilarious…seriously…
I saw a tape of the other blond Faux News woman (forgot her name) going off on Eric Erickson and Lou bc clearly she’s a working woman breadwinner, she was pissed and maybe her and Greta thought if they just signed a contract and did their jobs they could avoid male criticism there but now I think they’re opening their eyes and better late than never. They confused the words males and men, lots of women confuse the two.
What’s really threatening the nuclear pipe dream for these dudes is that they can no longer live like ‘Madmen’ of the 50′s (well, they can but their breadwinner wife might just tell em’ to F off and move on quicker than their ‘tolerant’ counterpart – the 50′s housewife who didn’t do it bc she had fewer options) and women can afford to stay single and they can afford to speak up about how they want to live out their breadwinning lives and not just lockstep around town in order to ‘preserve’ some old standard that fell apart bc men like it better when women ‘behave’ as they want them to, and the women instead chose to live life on their terms not their man’s ‘head of household’ or ‘dominant’ dude concept…
what a bunch of whiny old guys…
Though Misch, I wonder when women will get their supportive act on, seems there’s too much energy spent being competitive and/or counter productive to the cause of forwarding all women. Lots of women would rather back men, their hubbies/BF’s knowing that that man is a buffoon/Ahole/jerk, etc…, I’ve heard women say tehy’d rather have a male boss, mostly bc that woman boss they experienced either acted bitchy (maybe she’s new to having power and doesn’t know how to wield it yet?) or that she’s jealous ( and I’ve seen this one in action, not cool at all for either party, both lose), so how do you get women to band together? Most won’t even abide woman code (do not hit on your GF’s man, amongst other seemingly commonsensical things) and men are usually very into their man code (even if it means lying like mad for their fellow male), what’s it going to take?? I hate turning it into a divisive man vs woman project but it is a tough project to band women together when they don’t seem to want it badly enough and don’t see the consequence of NOT doing it…sigh…

Since I’m alone here and have a captive audience, I wanted to give you this quote:
If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn’t it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?
