How Sexism Hurts Men - Twin-Skies - 07-29-2010

Just found this article by a feminist on five unfair sexist stereotypes that she thinks are emotionally and socially crippling for men. Interesting read, especially if you've read the Bro Code

Thank you for this incredibly refreshing link. I've already come to this realization long ago, but it's so much more satisfying reading it from a woman (if she really is a woman LOL ).

I think it's especially relevant here, since most of RR isn't exactly what society would 'normally' consider "manly" LOL
