There are plenty of online communities raging against how Feminists run the world and men are oppressed, maybe u should join em if it bothers u so much?

edit: i didnt mean that to sound too narky like, but seriously, u just need to check out some of the people that rly do care about this type of stuff to see how warped their world view is. For the most part, they dont care about it, they just hate women.

It doesn't bother me that much, honestly, I just don't like to be portrayed as a feckless father.

Adverts are generally a bit stupid really. Everyone has a right to be annoyed by them. Don't think it's reflective of anything more than trying to appeal to certain demographics. The RT you mentioned in particular. There's a lot more stay at home Mums than Dad's (who'd be about watching TV in the monring). And the Dad's are considerably less likely to want to watch a parenting channel.

I imagine they quite often reinforce stereotypes because for the most part, that's what we're comfortable with.

You're literally saying that if you're a man and you want to complain about discrimination against you, then you are a misogynist.

Oh, sorry, no. You're saying that this applies to most men, just to cover your back.

Nah, as everyone knows, men cannot be victims of sexism. It only works one way.

Much like a white man can only be a victim of 'inverse racism', not racism.

try telling that to anybody that has got divorced with young kids, give you a clue how even it is, if your a father of under nines, you will not get your kids unless the mother is a danger to them even if its her behavior that led to the split,you house will go with them, even if you have paid every penny for it and everything in it, despite every body even the schools saying they would be better of with you, you will not win, your crime having a dick instead of a fanny.
I had a shift change in work that wouldn't let me see my kids more than once every three weeks, due to visiting rights i put a letter in asking for any job even at a lower grade and pay cut.
At the same time a grandmother whose son supposedly had his kid once every two weeks ,not even at her address and in reality didnt see the kid at all, asked for a job in my grade that came up with with set hours to have access , she hadnt done the exams or had any experience in the role i had 14 yrs,
give you a guess who got the job and who had to leave. i didnt even get a reply to my letter.
Equal rights is all well and good when its is just that not slanted in favor of one or the other .

No, not position of the month chaps, sorry.

I'm talking about adverts, particularly baby adverts, that talk about 'what's best for baby is best for mum' (incidentally, I cannot abide the use of the term 'baby' in this context, makes me cringe). The blatant insinuation that Dad is not really a proper parent, and in most of the these adverts, is portrays as some bumbling chump who doesn't know the difference between a nappy and a potato.

This whinge was prompted by an RT I saw this morning from some online parenting channel which proclaimed 'Calling all Mums! Have your say on the latest parenting issues'.

Chap I know, his wife died leaving him to raise two daughters aged 4, and 6 months old. Sure he loves how he's portrays in the adverts.

Said this years ago, all adverts with fellas in are made to look like idiots. Just watch..
