Bill maher touched on this last night on his show, and i cant believe im seeing more of it.
He argued men are shat on far to often in todays media with female leads taking more lead roles.
He also brought up countless movies starting in the 80s that pushed the dumb dad/male narrative that persists today.
Does he have a point? Yeah idk really.
The dumb dad is fucking disgusting, it's in pretty much every animated show for kids.
And sitcoms.
Don't watch those, though the few I've watched didn't really have that. But it wouldn't surprise me.
But I think with kid shows it's much more dangerous, they soak up the patterns and internalise them.
