The Grace Hopper Celebration is meant to unite women in tech. This year droves of men came looking for jobs.

    There’s nothing more pathetic the a Mens Rights Activist. Shame to see so many of them here.

      I don’t support the actions of men in this article, but all gender roles are toxic, and there are societal expectations of men that are genuinely toxic.

      Again, women have gotten the shit end of the stick for muuuuch longer. I don’t want to minimize that. But saying mens rights activists are pathetic?

      60% of male suicides report no off behavior from the man before commiting suicide. This suggests it isn’t a mental illness causing the problem, but circumstances in their life cause them to kill themself because they truly see no other solution or way out for the predicament they’re in.

      How come men are twice as likely to be homeless than women?

      Why isn’t it socially acceptable for men to take on the “care taker roll” like a stay at home dad or a nurse?

      I could go on, but I don’t want to make this a rallying cry for men in a thread about a tech conference for women. I get meninsts is like a men’s rights group that was created to troll feminists, but men’s rights and woman’s rights should both just try and be egalitarian
