National Post: An Embattled Champion Of Male Values

Go National Post! You're two for two in one day!

"As Remembrance Day approaches, the media's wartime love affair with our troops serves as an ironic reminder of how rarely in the fourth estate one sees sympathetic editorial treatment of manhood.

Most of the year, men -- not as individuals but as representative of their sex --are far more likely to be portrayed negatively: as control freaks, perverts and in general people to fear. Only for a brief annual pre-Nov. 11 interlude do we ever see glowing tributes to the traditional male virtues of honour, gallantry, steadfastness, stoicism, brotherhood and chivalry."

Thanks to Barbara Kay for this article.

Makes you wonder, though... Why is it that only female journalists can write about men's issues, but male journalists are silenced?
