Misandry and Misogyny

Women hate men,
And men hate women.
Men can't talk about their feelings around women or other men,
Men can't stand up for themselves around women,
All the modern tough, leading, movie and TV roles are played by women.
Yet, women are still expected to act stupid and weaker than they really are, to get men to do everything for them,
Women are expected to completely doll themselves up to appease men and attract them.
If a woman doesn't want a particular man, he gets upset and takes it out on her,
If a man is forced into intimacy by a woman, he is commended and/or told that if they were him, they would have been begging to have her.
Men think all women only want large muscles and large phalluses,
And when instead of a mister, they want a miss,
Men get mad, because a man can't have her,
Same when they see on TV or in movies, a woman with a female partner.
Both genders have to walk on eggshells around each other,
Are expected to let themselves be walked all over by the other,
Can't get the proper respect, love, pay, credit, time, dignity, or decency by the other.
Each side fights dirty,
No more fighting fair and square, they are both guilty.
Not all men are like this,
Nor all women like this,
But kindness doesn't sell as many papers as this.
Around the world, there are wars, murders, famine, unsanitary conditions, little to no healthcare, alcohol, tobacco,
Drugs, gangs, rapists, racists, fascists, torture, aristocracy with overflow,
Unfair elections, human and animal abuse, greed, excesses of lust and vanity,
Arson, suicide, horrible practical jokes, relatively innocent practical jokes gone horribly wrong, lack of life quality,
And so much more,
It makes my heart sore.
There is so much corruption and bad in this world, that it makes the gender struggle seem insignificant,
But we can't put it to the wayside and forget it, we just can't.
I cry not becasue I can't handle it,
But because for so long, have been dealing with it...

...And I have reached my breaking point.
