Only women, kids, and dogs are loved unconditionally?

There's an element of truth to what he's saying. In a traditional romance setting, it's the man's job to approach the woman, pay for dates, and initiate all advances, whereas the woman's job is to exist and go along with it. There are always more men asking a woman to date them than they can accept. Men date who they can, women date who they want. In a traditional family, it's the parents' job to take care of the kids and the kids just have to accept that care and grow.

Men are very privileged in a lot of ways, but honestly that feeling of being super replaceable, and having to compensate for my lack of intrinsic desirability with work, social standing, and material support does feel pretty awful. I know it's wrong, but deep down I do feel that twinge of jealousy of women for being able to attract a man off of looks and sex appeal alone, despite the costs of that ability. The grass is always greener and all.

None of that's to downplay the whole torture and death of women & children. Those are incredibly horrific evils which must be resisted in every way possible.

Because it's the human condition to think that yourself is the one who suffers most of all. Or he thinks that being a decent human being is too much effort? Nobody and nothing is loved truly unconditionally. Men don't have to do more than the rest of us. Maybe he was also just projecting.

No. I love my dad, brother and nephews unconditionally.

that wasn't his point, his was men are only loved conditionally, they Have to provide something in order to be loved.

You understand that Chris Rock is a comedian, right?

Chris Rock wasn't saying bad things never happen to women, children or dogs. He was saying that men are loved for what they have and what they provide instead for who they are which is true. Men are unappreciated or underappreciated. Men are only valued if they can provide something otherwise they're viewed as losers, low-status and replaceable.

Cats only

Sometimes I feel that unconditional love is lost from everyone these days. By the time most of us hit adulthood we are already jaded by the past experience of loving unconditionally and being hurt by it. Man or woman, it seems many of us have been broken by the time we're mature enough to settle down.

There be fools all over the world.... not based on anything other than being fools and foolish. That statement is foolish.
