A male backlash against #MeToo is brewing

Men are scared, and feminists are delighted. But the urge to call out and punish male sexual transgression is bound to clash with an inescapable truth: We’re all in this together, men and women.

Consider what’s happening in the capital of Florida. Female staffers and lobbyists have found “many male legislators will no longer meet with them privately,” reported The Miami Herald. “I had a senator say, ‘I need my aide here in the room because I need a chaperone,’ ” lobbyist Jennifer Green told the paper. “I said, ‘Senator, why do you need a chaperone? . . . Do you feel uncomfortable around me?’ ‘Well,’ he said, ‘anyone can say anything with the door shut.’ ”

“I’m getting the feeling that we’re going back 20 years as female professionals,” said Green, who owns her company. “I fully anticipate I’m going to be competing with another firm that is currently owned by some male, and the deciding factor is going to be: ‘You don’t want to hire a female lobbying firm in this environment.’ ”

This sends the original concept of feminism back about fifty years.

This is what you would refer to as "The Law of unintended consequences."

You asked for it.
Screamed about it.
Now, you got it and it's a problem??

The same thing with socialism and liberalism - sounds great and the theory is beautiful.
In practice, they destroy societies, cultures, and nations.
Except at CNN. Then, it's the Russians.
Keep cheering.

They wanted equality - when they got it, it hurt... they don't want equality any more!

Look,
Our women DID NOT want feminism.
It was foisted upon the population by the elites (Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation) through deceit. They wanted to double the work force and drive down labor costs.

The public never knew what hit us. I grew up in the 1970s and I can tell you it never made any sense from the beginning.

Another globalist (communist) agenda.

So...is why so many men have gotten on the MGTOW train due to the realization that they are at a disadvantage. Men realize that relationships with women aren't really needed on the same requirement level as food, shelter, job, vehicle, etc. Women are often (with a few exceptions, called Unicorns) rated about the need level of a 72+" TV. Nice to have but a PITA to deal with. Getting married is a risk, and often 50%+, result in a divorce with courts that 93% of the time, favor the woman especially when there are kids and $$$ involved.
