What is it about American men that makes them

Just look at the "is your last name important to you" thread.

I must have read like 2 pages and not a single one of the posters answered yes, and many of them had something negative to say about their father.

So all in all, I think that the OP has it upside down. It isn't so much that English speaking media are trying to bring down "patriarchy" or whatever.
IMO this patriarchy is already down and the English-speaking man (from Anglo-Saxon culture) is simply the butt of all jokes.

Natural behavior, just like the weakling gets beaten up in the school yard.

You ll see this behavior way less from say, Slavic or Latin cultures, only because it wouldn't make as much sense since the men aren't as esmaculated.
 
My mom would bake you a pie and ask if you need any laundry done.
 
Look at the divorce rate in the US with the mom getting custody in most of the kids. That explains a lot of it.

Also, a lot of men that claim to be "alpha" and stick to the traditional roles (wife cooks, cleans, handles household, etc.) are actually pretty helpless people. To not even know how to make a meal to feed yourself and your kids is pretty pathetic. They are actually the opposite and completely dependent upon the wife. Kids probably see that as well.

Or if they do tend to follow the traditional roles they're slammed for being misogynistic . . .
 
Let's see your dad push your cantaloupe sized head through his urethra and then we'll talk about strength.

Let's see your mom agree to a contract in marriage stating that he gets half her shit and alimony/child support if he decides to split with another funhole and go to Spain with her kids and their new stepmom
 
@bigbangspiritbomb knows

Broken homes
Feminism
Radical feminism
3rd wave feminism
Cultural Marxism
Hate of religion, patriarchy, etc


All of those basically. And it isn't just American men, many Canadian, British, Australian and yes men from many other Western Anglo/Germanic countries behave in this manner.
Is that poster all of those things?
 
Some people in life like their mom. Some do not. I fell in the latter.

But everyone on TV loves their mom or grandma because people on TV want to be liked and that's the easiest win outside of "I save drowning puppies on the regular". They want to be liked for the attention or to game the system and win prize money. It's usually a scam. Don't read into so much.
 
Say stuff like "my wife is stronger than me, she's tougher than me" (just saw Brad Culpepper say this on Survivor).

And stuff like "my mom is the strongest human being I know" etc.?

Is it because of lots of broken homes and kids growing up without fathers, or is it some massive PC culture movement or what? I've never seen this stuff in real life. Yes I have a mother and father, I've never had the urge to try and say how much better one is than the other. It's fucking weird if you ask me.
Maybe because women shit babies out of their vaginas. That takes some serious strength & pain tolerance.
 
Isn't that like the guy from Napoleon Dynamite who wants a lifetime of credit for throwing a perfect touchdown once?

Also, The vagina is designed to like pain. Women want to be stretched out and rode hard.
 
For many, their mom is the strongest person they know. They're not talking about her fucking bench press. They're talking about the will to succeed often times, which isn't an inherently male trait. Many were raised by single moms at a time when being a single mother in America, much less just a single older woman, wasn't exactly easy.

Especially historically since women were expected not to work and to simply be homemakers. Then, when their husband runs out on them, they are suddenly expected to find employment and support their family when they have no education and almost zero work experience. Often times that meant working two jobs. It's not easy.

I get that, but this is a recent phenomenomnemom, it's 2017 buddeh.
 
....? I don't need get it.

It's not a PC/SJW thing. My mom IS one of the strongest people I know. Raised three boys by herself after our dad passed away from cancer, while working as a teacher, which is more than a full time job.
 
Moms are the shite. Only people with bad moms think otherwise.
Moms are usually the ones that stay up all night with a sick kid....then still get everything done the next day. Dad's may be the typical bread winner of the family but a good mom usually makes sure that household stays running smoothly.

Full time job except for, you know, getting the whole summer off.

It's been happening for a while. But it's the result of the times more than anything. Many young men of today were raised by single mothers who were raised by parents who assumed traditional gender roles, and were therefore unequipped for the reality of today, which is that divorce and/or single motherhood is fairly common. So while their expectations were to live the same life their parents did, their reality was quite different.
 
Maybe they're secure enough to credit their wives/gf's for their strengths.

My dad always credited my mom for his success and stating that she was the smarter of the 2.
