I mean...I can be frustrated and mad and just want to kick some ass....and I see a baby in a stroller and I'm just like stopping, staring...all life's hardships and stresses...they just kind of fade away. Good luck to you Ruby! The biology science answer to that is because holding a baby temporarily lowers a males testosterone levels. Something to do with the instinct to nurture. Altough it is fun to freak people out when they see how powerful kicks are Thankyou 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should know. Meanwhile, half the men in prison had no father figure. uh huh. Keep slinging the leftist bull. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Society. Out of curiosity how old are you? Based on our interactions id place you at about 26.....anyways im an idiot and could be wayyy off I ask because as a kid in the 80's, particularly one without a father, the surrounding culture had a massive impact on my life and the surrounding culture encouraged the classic stereotypical male behavior(cold, rude, violent etc) which we now know is quite damaging to the one displaying that behavior. Todays world has definitely started to evolve away from those kinds of popular role models but they are definitely still around. 10 minutes ago, Earl.Of.Trumps said: t's a bunch of crapola, as Archie would say.

Society is all over keeping the male in check far more than the female. Teachers in school discipline boys more than girls (they should), and parents - particularly fathers, have to keep their sons in check more than daughters. "Police matters" are vast majority male cases. Boys that don't have a father to keep them in check quite often end up in prison. Now the guards keep them in check. This "training" boys by men and society to be "toxic" is a liberal myth. They just like to slur men, that's all.

While the angry femnazis definitely run wild with this crap and take it entirely too far we shouldnt be afraid to discuss the issue.

Guidelines APA Official Guidelines on Masculine Behavior (PDF) FOX NYTimes Go outside and look at your street. Look at the street lights, the sewer drains, the cars in the driveways. Look at the planes flying over head, the fire hydrants strategically placed to help keep you safe. That's traditional masculinity at work. Given the freedom to do so then Liberals would depreciate every aspect of society. While a normal level of freedom is okay they are unable to practice restraint. Its like they dont come with an off switch. When they have a problem with men being men its gone to far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
