BOYS SHOULD BE BOYS
There is a PSA on television which shows well known actors repeating the line " Boys will be boys" over and over until at the end of the commercial it reads in big letters "ENOUGH". It is obvious what the commercial is referring to. That bad behavior from men has has been ignored or trivialized by a male patriarchal society for years. I have seen this boys will be boys attitude firsthand. I didn't like it when I was young and I don't like it now. For example, in my youth it was expected by many people, including many females, that a boy was expected to cheat on his girlfriend, or wife, because boys will be boys. If women cheated, however; they were considered to be a slut and a whore. This is why John Kennedy got a pass from the media and most political figures of his day because of this boys will be boys attitude. Today, only Democrats and leftists get away with this behavior.
The modern feminist movement has a much more sinister motive than just trying to end bad behavior in men. Their goal is to emasculate men in much the same way that the Democrat slave owners tried to emasculate male Blacks during slavery. The male, because of testosterone posed the greatest threat to the slave system and males are the greatest threat to stopping cultural Marxism in America today."Toxic masculinity" is the new war cry of the left. As if there is no such thing as toxic femininity. By their very nature radical feminists are toxic. Their message is about male hatred. This past Monday we just celebrated the birth of Martin Luther King. This was a man who said "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character".The left, by engaging in identity politics, has perverted Kings dream in America today. It is no longer segregation by race but by gender, and what gender you choose to sleep with. Being a woman, being Black, Asian, White, Hispanic, American Indian, and homosexual doesn't matter to them. You must be the right kind of woman, Black person, White Person, Hispanic person, American Indian, or homosexual to matter. God help you if you are a virulent White Christian male who identifies as a Conservative or a Republican.
If you are a Republican or Conservative regardless of how you identify the content of your character means nothing to them. It is all about ideology and has nothing to do with character. Yet the left continues to claim King as one of their heroes as well as John Kennedy. The ideas of both men are anathema to the modern left of today. King leaned toward socialism, and was a whoremonger in his personal life but he at least espoused the tenets of Christianity. King was a disciple of non-violence and did not care what ideology you identified with as as long as you believed in the concept that all men were created equal. John Kennedy was also a whoremonger but he was a war hero, an American patriot, a fiscal conservative, believing in a strong national defense and was a huge supporter of the space program. As a Catholic he had experienced anti-catholic bias and was also a believer in the equality of all.

The men in my life, as well as the women, taught me the values of a real man. That hard work was a virtue and that a man's primary focus was to support his family. They taught me to pass these values on to my children and grandchildren. Women were worthy of respect and all people were worthy of respect regardless of their station in life. This is why I can treat the person that cleans the toilets with the same respect as those who manage the corporations.They taught me that a real man doesn't physically or verbally assault a woman or take advantage of anyone regardless of what they identify as. Do we really want effeminate emasculated men dominating the America of the future or the men that protect and support their families, fight our wars, arrest our criminals, and fight our fires? Men who are able to teach their children and grandchildren what it means to be a man like my father and grandfather before me. In addition the men who ended slavery, segregation, and helped give women the right to vote.
These are the kind of boys and men that we should raise. There is no such thing as toxic masculinity or toxic femininity. There is only character and a lack of character. The Ten Commandments and Christs admonition that we should love God with our heart mind and soul and love our neighbor as ourselves. The law of God applies to all mankind. There are bad people and good people. It is no more complicated than that. So how about it? Let's let boys be boys.
