Yeah. If he started it, or it was unprovoked, he'd be shut in his bedroom, no computer, no video games, no phone, or any sort of FUN thing. Then, he'd have more chores than most people.

I weep for the future.

Besides the "wussie" part, too many boys are growing up without a sense of honor or duty. They have no idea of what the word honor truely means. I mean this day in age, honor is truely becoming a rare concept that no one cares or even has a clue about.

The killing of the sense of honor is another thing that will ultimately result in our demise. Too many people these days are just looking out for number one. They only care about what makes them feel good in the moment and don't even think about the consequenses or who it hurts. (Which is really the root problem of ALL of this.) They enver stop and think about the big picture or the good that can come out of self denial for the great good, whether that good be for someone else, your family, your country, or you fellow mankind, or even simply for elevating your confidense in yourself.

Honor is more than just having a sense of duty... It's having a sense of righteousness. Distinquishing right from wrong, and despite how tempting it may be to light, cheat, steal, backstab or what ever the case, always holding pride in your honor and holding that standard to do the right thing.

It's wanting keep your consious and your honor pure and valuing that idea that is the ultimate virtue to elevate one's self to higher ground and simply become better than they are.

Honor is a valuable concept to any culture.

This is one of many many reasons why I ADORE the Japanese and Japan.


Try this in Austin, Texas.

The Japanese have a sense of national pride and honor unrivaled by all others, as I have seen.

I have no more tears, Godmodule.

The feminization of society explains everything. The schools diagnosed me as various dehumanizing things (including violent psychopath) for being a normal boy who liked TransFormers and army, and generally pretending to blow things up in general. My mom didnt like this and sent me to the school systems psychologists.

I had no friends in school because of this. The saddest case was this lovely Cherokee gal who bought the governments crapola about me. Someone who should know better since what has been donw to me has been done to generations of Cherokee children in the boarding schools.

I call this sad because i think we woulda gone out if i didnt have a label on my head that my parents still believe to this day just because a doctor who saw me for all of 5 minutes said i was autistic.

I somedays wonder how much he got paid to -not- observe children at USF. Tenure, anyone?

i think i have a right to my balls, thanks.... but i dont think we should go back to the age where domestic abuse was unquestioned.

I think i have every right to look at a girl who has put her DD bust into a wonderbra without getting my head bit or blown off for it.

I think i have every right to play with a G1 Jetfire without being accused of violent behavior and being thrown in with kids who torture animals... while at the time i adored the family Alsatian. I miss that dog.

and if they do this to my kid they will be in Pinellas courts for the next 20 years. I wont listen to the lies. My parents have been making that mistake for years and wonder why they still dont understand me.

I sympathize with you to the letter.

Our self-destructive society will not be satistfied until every red-blooded man is broken and humiliated, and every honest, pure, moral woman is debased and objectified.

This should not surprise any of us.

And screw them! Jetfire is a kickass toy (G1 OR Classics!)!!!

Just keep your head low until you are on your own, then, you will not have to answer to anyone but yourself and the God you may or may not believe in. It is difficult man, but just bite your tongue for now. It will be worth it in the end, I can assure you!

Sometimes trying to force the idea of manliness onto a young boy can be very damaging. It can a lot of unecessary stress and heartache. Take myself male self for example.

In my childhood I was always berated by my stepfather when I was playing. It didn't matter what I'd do. It didn't matter how mainly I tried to be, it was never enough. I'd play catch, climb trees, and get my knees scraped up playing baseball. Not matter what I did he'd always say "Be a man and take that ****ing dress off now!" Of course that was really embarassing 'cause then I'd have to run back into the house wearing nothing but my panties.
