re: Nothing wrong with women making advances in society, but emaciating men in the process isn't good.

Agreed.


I don't think women are "emaciating" men.

Emaciate \E*ma"ci*ate\, v. i. [imp. & p. p. Emaciated; p. pr.
& vb. n. Emaciating.] [L. emaciatus, p. p. of emaciare to
make lean; e + maciare to make lean or meager, fr. macies
leanness, akin to macer lean. See Meager.]
To lose flesh gradually and become very lean; to waste away
in flesh. ``He emaciated and pined away.'' --Sir T. Browne.
