“Feminized atmosphere” alert..

Okay, I couldn’t let this one pass. A guy by the name of Brit Hume suggested that 

 “..New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) had only gotten a reputation for being a bully because men could not be “masculine and muscular” in the “feminized atmosphere” created by the media.” The Raw Story: Fox’s Brit Hume shocks female panelist: ‘Feminized atmosphere’ made Christie a ‘bully’

Really? Women, via their champions in the media, are preventing men from being “masculine and muscular”? So women and the media emasculate men to the point that they feel it necessary to behave as a bully? 

Oh my God, where do I start? No, Brit, bullying is a choice. Intimidation is a choice. Manipulation is a choice. If women are doing all of this, don’t you think we’d have everything we want by now? Does this also apply to men who beat women to death, or just when they slap them around a bit? Does it apply to men who rape women? Who are these pansy-assed men to whom Brit is referring? Are they all politicians? Is that what’s going on in Texas? In Virginia?

Brit, is it my fault if I’m sexually harassed? Is it what I’m wearing? Is it my perfume? Is it how I look? What did that teacher do wrong that day prior to the election when Governor Christie, with his wife looking on grinning from ear to ear, yelled at and berated her? Was that the media’s fault that he bullied this woman? Was it her fault?

This “old-fashioned” way men have of behaving went out a long time ago. I know there’s a resurgence of this idiotic behavior, nevertheless it’s unwelcome. Stop blaming others for your ridiculousness. Every day, you get up and you have a choice as to who you are going to be. Are you going to extend love and unity to others, or are you going to make life difficult. As a governor, Christie has a responsibility, in my opinion, to be as gracious the people of New Jersey as possible, regardless if they voted for him or they didn’t. His behavior, at times, falls far short of this. At times, he presents himself as a caring person. He needs to make up his mind which it is, and then do that. Because if he doesn’t, people will choose for him and it won’t be the caring option. 

Guys have to stop blaming women, and evidently the media, for all the crap that exists in the world. Because if you look beneath the surface of most of it..I’ll just bet you won’t find too many women as the cause. The days of “boys will be boys” have ended. Women aren’t listening anymore.
