I have come to the conclusion that there is an ongoing conspiracy in
Hollywood to feminize and castrate men, in everything from music to
movies to Oprah.

There is a subtle subliminal message being perpetrated that romance
is tantamount to giving women all the power as a high stakes gamble,
and that love means not mutual compromise, but a kind of one sided
compromise where the guy has to make most of the sacrifices in order
to 'prove' his level of love and commitment.

In short, there are influences in Hollywood that promote AFC
(Average Frustrated Chump) behavior.
The climax in many of these movies
usually involves the guy performing a desperate, 'romantic' act that
basically brings him to his knees after giving away all his power.
In these movies, the woman then swoons, gets all teary-eyed after
being convinced that he loves her, and takes him in. This whole
sequence usually follows after them man does something selfish or
stupid, or screws up in some way. Many of these movies involve the
man groveling and asking for forgiveness in some way.

When was the last time you heard a love song about a man playing
with a girl by being a challenge, or playing hard to get? Women
sing songs like "Independent Woman" and "Make Him Wait" and we sing
songs like THAT!

This is part of the reason that AFC's think they fall in love, then
act like wusses, then grieve when they don't get the girl. They end
up having this wide-eyed, panting puppy-dog attitude to love and
being in love.

It is bad enough that many mothers train their sons to be 'nice' to
women (see my article about not taking advice from chicks) but we
also have these Hollywood influences bombarding us.

Be on your guard.
