Sex and men

A solution for male sexual transgressions. Make all male sexual predators wear a tight fitting penis bracelet which sets off a warning signal at the start of an erection.
Of course, I’m not serious about this because, even if it worked, it would only solve the problem after the fact.
We live in a male dominated society. That may be culture or nurture or evolution or power, but it is a fact. Women, even as their impact on society worldwide increases, still make steps forward only haltingly and unevenly. They can address issues of glamorization, dress, media images and stereotypes, work and motherhood, but it’s men who must make the real changes.
And I mean moguls, CEOs, thugs. adolescents, farmers, cheaters, gentlemen, academics, Hollywood power players, pornographers, fathers, uncles, artists, mechanics, athletes—all of us men. We can’t easily stop the marketers, TV and film producers, media giants, sex salesmen and entertainers who swamp us in sex messages.
We can resist though. We can become men who respect women and, in turn, respect ourselves.
