I only made it through a minute or so, is this supposed to be a parody, or can someone break it down for me?

What the hell kind of pussy *** crap was that?

Unghh I feel horrible for having watched 30 seconds of that in a few second bits waiting for the punchline.

Thirty seconds in and it feels like an infomercial sales pitch. Does it get any better?

Sorry, I guess I wasn't very clear. These "men" are their own punchline.

Err... isn't the video itself offensive to women?

I can't imagine wanting to **** a neo-feminist enough to agree to participate in this kind of charade.

This video is offensive to anyone with more than two functioning brain cells. I didn't last 30 seconds. What the hell is this?

I disagree.

You all can laugh and giggle all you want to, but there's a lot of truth in that video. No, I don't want men to be all "pussified", I want men to be men, but at the same time having men just acknowledge feminine struggles and emotions is pretty nice. I can think of one particular instance in my life where had a man actually listened to my "womanly intuition of my own body" a life would have been spared.
I don't think men necessarily need to go around apologizing for every awful thing in history, (they went slightly dramatic on that front in the video), but don't laugh so hard and scoff so much at this sappiness that you overlook the importance of the "listening to women" part.
That's all I'm saying. It was kind of refreshing, kind of nice to watch that and actually feel for a 8 minutes like some dudes were actually paying attention.

This video could defuse a WHOLE lotta angry lesbians! ;)

So women are weaker then men and need special acknowledgement of their problems. Check :thumbs:

My offense was the way they said things. It felt over the top to me and not serious. Also It implied a great deal of weakness in women.

Yeah, sounds like a whole lot of "I'm sorry you feel that way".

Well, maybe I'm naive, but I took it seriously and I liked it.

It sounded like a tutorial in how to sound New Age and pick up women. I didn't trust most of those men at all.
