...things they have to do? How many times have you seen a woman complain about how it's "not fair" that they have to carry babies through pregnancy and push them out? What is the point of complaining? What does it accomplish?
Do you ladies think us men somehow control this, as if we used to be able to have babies but devised an evil plan so that only you can now?
We don't create your menstrual cramps. We didn't give you a uterus. We didn't give you little gonads which crank out ridiculously fluctuating hormones. How is ANY of this our fault?
Right up until very recently, men were expected to go out into the world and work themselves to death, either in some horrendously dangerous work site or factory, or handed the weapon of the day and told to go kill (and accept the idea that they could be killed). Did they gripe and moan and complain that it was "not fair" that women didn't have to do these things?
What do they hope to gain? I'm sorry your guts hurt. Yes I'll rub your back. Stop whining. Yes I'll get you a drink.
Ok fine my wife is badly PMSing.

That's a meaningless thing to say. First off, I CAN'T. Second of all, women don't HAVE to have babies.
Third, yes it's a burden but with wonderful rewards. Besides the incredible euphoria women seem to having babies, they also (usually) get showered with attention and support from most of their family and friends. Physically, most women only really struggle the last couple of months.
In the developed world, nobody - men or women - endure the kind of work environment that men had to work in until recently. Loud factories breathing metal dust... job site fatalities were common, and many men died under 40. Very few people "work themselves to death" these days.
