I pretty much agree with this post, but as an unapologetic feminist, I want to point out (1) that being a feminist doesn't preclude you from loving guys or make you a guy hater and (2) even if you were a feminist, it wouldn't preclude you from pointing out where men come out ahead, or undermine the validity of your observation. I'm not saying you were saying either of those things...exactly...but it seemed kind of strange to point out that you weren't a feminist, as though not being a feminist increased the validity of your observation that there is no male equivalent to the issue being discussed in this thread.

Don't get offended. I'm not a guy hater or a feminist or anything. I love guys, as should be pretty evident from other things I've posted. But, in this case, men definitely come out ahead.
