It’s an unhealthy mix that affects productivity and basic workplace camaraderie. Yes, there are definite cases where men take advantage of naive office girls (this is especially true in D.C., where the office manager is often having an affair with the cute twentysomething coffee fetcher). But feminists trying to equalize the workplace are engaging in a Sisyphean task. Men and women just aren”€™t made to work together as a unified team. The sexes are different. They excel at doing different things.

Just consider the examples of accepted sexual differentiation in our society. Professional sports are demarcated along gender lines. You rarely see a female construction worker on the site of a new skyscraper. Hooters isn”€™t about to hire men as waitresses.

Now look where forced gender intermingling hasn”€™t worked. The U.S. military has tried to incorporate women in the ranks of combat troops. The results have been abysmal (and emasculating for our armed forces). Gender egalitarianism is actually making our country less safe. It just goes to show that on a long enough timeline, social liberalism turns into nihilism.

The ironic part about feminism is that it’s not built to last. Five minutes spent in any college sorority will tell you why: Women loathe one another. For men, competition is a healthy process that brings out the best, most competent talent. For women, it’s blood sport. Like Mencken said, “€œOn one issue, at least, men and women agree: they both distrust women.”€

A female-ruled country will eventually collapse in a fit of jealousy and rage. As always, it will be up to men to restore it. So for the guy readers, I urge you to keep your balls out of harm’s way for as long as you can. We”€™re going to need them again someday.
