Feminism in the media

Every time you turn on the TV you are bombarded by one of two things, sexism on both sides or feminist ideals.

Sexism on both sides are basically stereotypes exaggerated to make them seem comical, or the image of 'sexy' is used. Yes you do see near naked women on TV but you also see near naked men. Sexism is used in music videos a lot, mainly hip hop video clips to the point that which it has become fairly rude.

But feminist views in the mainstream media is rampant, you are constantly smacked in the face by adverts where men are portrayed as stupid, men portrayed as clumsy and slow.

There are also many TV shows where a couple on the show has broken up over the man cheating and he is then forever regarded as a sleaze and not to be trusted. Where as when similar shows have the woman cheating, there are a few tears then he forgives her and all is good by the end of the programs allocated 30 minutes.

You also get the stereotypical movie about this seemingly happy couple, but the male has a dark side and is secretly having an affair with someone younger and more beautiful.

I don't know about anyone else, but I have personally known of more women cheating on men then men cheating on women. One of these women once said 'it's ok, i'm the girl'.

Where did she get this idea from? I wouldn't think she would have gotten this idea from her parents, them been Asian and traditional. Who else is there? Friends from her social life? Where would they have gotten the idea from?

And why is it, when ever there is some feminist group ranting and raving over anything, you suddenly have feminists all over the country up in arms spewing out everything they've just heard and blaming men for it all?

Let me ask you this.

If a male rights group started vomiting garbage blaming women for everything, do you think anyone would take notice?

If women were portrayed as stupid, clumsy and slow in the media do you think it would be accepted?
