First, watch some old school tv like Make Room for Daddy and those types of shows. The men were just as bumbling then as they are in todays tv shows. Just shown in a different way as to not make the men unhappy.




Then there was Andy Taylor, Ward Cleaver, Mike Brady, Bill Cosby and I'm sure others who were not clueless. Silly at times sure, but not totally clueless. Where are those fathers today? Where is the balance?

Second, how many societies are matriarchal? You might be surprised at how long women have been running things in certain cultures.



What are you responding too? I'm not sure what this has to do with anything.

What was the last TV show that the woman was the butt of all the jokes, AND those jokes were brought about by the man?

Yes, had to put a stipulation in there otherwise people rattle off Lucile Ball, Rosanne, Laverne and Shirley, etc.

It's just not accepted in our society for males to make humor at the expense of females in general. Not that it never happens, but as an unwritten rule it typically is.

Any married man on this forum knows what happens when you make your wife the butt of a joke she was not prepared for. (It's 3 days of heavenly silence) (often followed by 5 days of remind us how we are jack wagons.) (followed by constant reminders for eternity of the event)


We don't have to agree with each other, to respect each others opinion.

I could only wish my wife would give me that 3 days of silence... she is more of a "We are going to talk about this RIGHT NOW" type of person... and by "talk about" I mean she yells and I listen.
