This story is a crock of shit.
Typical of such articles, but let's go over the points, however stupid they are.
I. It’s the end of men because men are failing in the workplace.
Everyone is failing in the workplace. It's not gender specific. The rich-poor gap is still increasing and the middle class is shrinking. The number one cause of childhood poverty is single motherhood, and it's on the rise. And we're not talking teen pregnancy; we're talking 30-something women having their first child and doing so without a husband or the father present.
The fact is that it takes two median incomes to raise a family today. Lose either income and your going to be poor.
II. It’s the end of men because the traditional household, propped up by the male breadwinner, is vanishing.
Same as previous point with same response.
III. It’s the end of men because we can see it in the working and middle class.
WTF? I'm not even sure what she's trying to say here, but it doesn't even sound like a cause.
IV. It’s the end of men because men have lost their monopoly on violence and aggression.
Men have never had a monopoly on violence. Women have always used their influence on men to get men to commit acts of violence against other men, women, and children.
Furthermore, violence is no longer tolerated in our society except by the police and the military -- and hopefully, soon that will change. A violent person is most likely to end up either dead or imprisoned in our society and over time evolution is weeding out violence from our species.
If anything, this spells the end for alpha males and the rise of beta males.
V. It’s the end of men because men, too, are now obsessed with their body hair.
If only there were some way to remove body hair.
The puling, whimpering modern male will now have to accept the lash and the strap on if he wishes to survive. The wheel of fortune turns. The masochists have now become the sadists.
Well I guess if you're 26 year old woman and every 26 year old man you know still lives at home also. Then you would think men are obsolete.
On a side note, older ugly men are marrying younger and more attractive women than ever.

It ain't done with smoke & mirrors!

This can't be right: all lesbians look like Victoria's Secret models, and spend all day making love, working out, or rubbing massage oil on one another.
seems 3/4 are not and your tax dollars used to find why not...
Feds Spend $1.5 Million to Study Why Lesbians Are Fat
(CNSNews.com) – The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded $1.5 million to study biological and social factors for why “three-quarters†of lesbians are obese and why gay males are not, calling it an issue of “high public-health significance."
That IS actually an interesting scientific subject. It seems that Lesbians are substantially more likely to have a hormonal imbalance, much more so than either gay men or straits of either gender.
Figuring the triggers might actually solve some biological mysteries, and lead to cures of conditions and diseases.
I've heard that if you drop your phone in water you should immediatel put it in a bowl of rice!
The rice will attract Asians who will then fix your electronics for you.
The only reason women want men is for their throbbing penis.
I feel so used.
I wish that was the only reason...
I also get called to fix the crap she's always breaking or electronics she screws up....

1. There goes all my lesbian fantasies.
2. My conjecture is that gay men have to be in good shape to attract another man, whereas gay women do not have to be. Mate competition is a strong motivation to hit the gym and eat less.
3. If three quarters of lesbians are obese, then some of those women I asked out in college must have been lying.
Oh?
How long has it been since you got cut??

I'd like to know. I think there's at least a corollary. But then, I love big women
Well big is relative. This is just right! I don't like the stick thin, one step away from death look on models!!
She also looks like she'll never drown in that water...
If you can hold on to those floaties neither will you.
Well with so many women that are Gay, that really speaks for itself.
They wish.
I make myself valuable by doing all the crap work no one else wants to do. If that means I need to research and put together an analysis of a work function and slap my bosses name on it, I do it. If it means no one wants to do an investigation, I ask the VP when it's due by and get it done. If it means if we get a delivery and it's a bunch of heavy boxes, I volunteer immediately to sort it out. Even though I have a degree, even though I'm approaching middle age, even though I'm no longer in great shape, whatever it is that needs to be done, I do it.
Women need me. My wife and step daughter needs me. My work needs me(badly). I know how to kill stuff, but it's an unreasonable skill to have in a metropolis. Still, I go daily and kill the metaphorical buffalo. I use more brain and less brawn than my prehistoric ancestors, but the role hasn't changed. The women I've dated and the lady I'm married to wouldn't have it any other way.
In the words of Brad Paisley, I'm still a guy(thank God for that).
If men were not needed, we'd disappear in the evolution. The only thing that was disappearing were homosexuals and other deviants... and those only survived because of bleeding heart liberals who want to socialize misery and deviancy to entire society. Fools I tell you!
Yeah, because out of the 200,000 years of human evolution, bleeding heart liberalism was the norm.

As gays produce less children, the gay gene would not have survived over time. Why it is still existent all across the globe in every society is baffling.

Cause there is no gay gene.

There is a gay gene. If you are born gay, there must be a gay gene.

There is a gay gene.
That article lacks substance and a conclusion. Try this article--it's much more thoughtful and suggests "epigenetics", a case of *variation* in DNA. This suggests one is born gay, but from genetic variance, not from genetic inheritance:

If you are born gay, there must be a gay gene.
Clearly, you don't know how biology works. There is no "belly button" gene that controls whether you have an outie or an innie. There is no "fingerprint" gene, which is why identical twins have different fingerprints.
Why do the people least knowledgeable in a subject matter insist that they are the experts?
Men exist only to generate genetic diversity. Giving birth to men is women's way of fertilizing each other with more diverse genes. If diversity were not advantageous, men would, in fact, become obsolete.
Men can't reproduce, so they have to be "value added" if they want to compete to get their genes back into the chain of reproduction.
Which means that men, whether they like or not, are always going to pay for it one way or another.

This is actually true. Men act as a sieve on genes as any woman who wants to reproduce, baring a medical condition, can reproduce at will. Hence pretty much all women reproduce and therefore contribute little to differentiating genes in their own reproduction, but strongly affect evolution in terms of their mating choices.
CIC demonstrates once more that he's a not-so-latent homosexual obsessed with the sexuality of men he's never met.
Women could evolve into anything they wanted. They would still be women i.e. uterus that makes babies, oviducts that lay eggs, parthenogenesis, whatever.
Men are the definition of genetic dead end without women.
Did you consider that humans also take a tremendous amount of time to mature? It's a fantastically large investment of time and food and energy to raise a child to an adult, especially now. Women must get help or it just doesn't work. Whether that help comes from a man or an EBT card depends on the success of the woman to attract and retain the services of the right sort of man.
Men are MUCH more highly valued in societies without a social safety net.
Yes this is true I think. Our minister was telling us how we are all special, and I think he's on to something.
Women could evolve into anything they wanted.
That's not how evolution works. It's not a conscious process.
If women and men were separated, and the women were not allowed to benefit in any way from value added male input, but were artificially inseminated to reproduce on their own with their male children segregated out, they would eventually evolve into something quite different, more multi-functional and independent than what they are now. They would probably do just fine that way.
Value added males are just part of the female genetic environment that the female genes take for granted in fashioning female traits. If the value added male resources are there, the female genes will utilize them. If they are not there, the female genes will just selectively evolve a plurality of members to function without them, as they do in many species.
Hot Lesbians are always just experimenting, they always move on to a another point of view. It's the one's that can't that don't.
Men have always been obsolete. They are nothing more than genetic confetti to generate diversity in the species.
And a way to extremely rapidly spread beneficial mutations. One guy with some special genetic advantage could possibly impregnate thousands of women.
Say, resistance to Black Death. Maybe didn't happen quite like that, but resistance genes spread in Europe pretty quickly. http://www.livescience.com/43063-black-death-roma-evolution.html

When you are immune to the plague, women let you do anything. You can grab them by the pussy.
Free speech forum or not, I don't like my name being drug through the mud like this....

This story is a crock of shit. Seriously, with comments such as:
"Are men literally obsolete? Of course not, and if we had to prove that we could never win. For one thing, we haven’t figured out a way to harvest sperm without them being, you know, alive. But in order to win this debate we have to prove that men, quote unquote, as we’ve historically come to define them — entitled to power, destined for leadership, arrogant, confused by anything that isn’t them. As in: “I don’t understand. Is it a guy dressed up like a girl? Or a girl dressed up like a guy?†They are obsolete.
However, choosing a headline is "sexy" and draws readers in. It's an advertisement for her book.
