Men fail.

Somehow I get the feeling men are a waste of space. Or at least most of them.
They're called the "stronger gender" here in Germany and I honestly doubt that.
Men are so weak ...
I recently watched the movie "Control", it's about the vocal of Joy Devision.
A short summary:
The singer marries very early, the girl is young and innocent and loves him deeply, though he treats her bad. Even though he doesn't love her anymore, he wants a baby with her. She gets the baby.
Then while a tour he starts an affair with a woman. When his wife finds out he denies it and confirms he would love only her. She belives him and asks him to end the affair. He says yes, but (ofcos) does not. When his wife wants the divorce he begs her to stay.
He makes two women despair and yet drowns in self-pitty.
He sees himself as the victim.

Isn't that absolutly hubristic? I was so angry while I watched the movie.
I watched it with a (male) friend and he said I should try and feel with the protagonist, but I was like "FUCK the protagonist, if he had made things clear all would have been fine! But no, he drowns in his so-great pain and makes two women who loved him despair."
And it seems this happens quite often in life. I myself expirienced something kinda that.
Ofcos I don't wanna say this is a men-only attitude, but it is quite common. Maybe it's simply because of their biology, who knows? But I don't count that as an excuse. It's none.
They are conscious and they've gotta choose as women have to choose.
They might have strength, but they've got great weaknesses, too. Thus we have to be strong. We, the "weaker gender".
