But now, I think it was maybe just "white" men.

Lately I see white men as an endangered species. My opinion is formed mainly by watching TV. Have you noticed how many programs are hosted and guested by females - and some are not that good? (Rachel the exception, she is better than any living male, white or otherwise) Black men or hispanic seem to come after females in the hiring list of media agencies.

But I don't agree with the OP that females are the cause of so many wrongs. Sorry to butt into a men's group. I still like men, even if some of you blame me for everything.
