You’ve seen him plenty of times on sitcoms; he’s the dumb, bumbling, idiot dad/husband/boyfriend who's useless at everything but bringing home a paycheck. The message: Guys are dumb and women, being the superior sex, have to lead them around. This, of course, cues the laugh track.
Yet a survey from an organization called Children Now found that two-thirds of kid respondents described men on TV as angry, while respondents from another group’s survey said men were portrayed as corrupt on TV by a 17 to 1 margin. Clearly, this is no laughing matter.

Is Male Bashing Curable?
Saturday, February 23, 2008 by Unknown
Don't you just love the way men are portrayed in popular culture? We're either fat slobs (Jim Belushi), idiots (Homer Simpson), or any other number of stereotypes.
I think the major problem is..............Feminism.
Yeah, yeah, I know. "But feminism helped grant women equal rights." But in actuality feminism gave some women a sense of entitlement to more rights. It seems to be the same with most so called "minorities". They always want more rights than everyone else. But I digress (and that's a post for another time).
Men and women seem to have forgotten that WE ARE DIFFERENT! Women are better at nurturing professions, like Teaching and Nursing (fact) while Men happen to be better at the more physical professions, like Construction and Iron work (also fact).
So let's all try this on for size. Men and women should embrace their differences and stop trying to homogenize everything that makes every individual man and woman unique.
