Rick says, “I stick my neck out for nobody.” As it turns out, he was wrong.

It is preservation of civilization.

One man can impregnate many women.

In another test, conducted for free, over 12,000 years, it was found that male humanoids tended to protect their women and children and were willing to risk their lives doing so.

Sometime around 660 AD this human trait became bastardized and a certain culture allowed the males total dominance over the females, including their beheading.

Not a Christian thing, nor a muzzle thing, but a God thing!

My Mother taught me to waltz and how to be a Gentleman. My Father taught me to be a Chevalier.

Dear 5th:

It's good to know there are still Chevaliers out there; however, from what my 16 year old son has seen of the girls nowadays, Ladies are few and far between.

Instead, they have mugs with slogans reading "I drink male tears." I wouldn't give you a pence for half the girls out there under 20 years of age; they are ignorant, immoral, and uncouth.

When you intervene, chances are greater than not that all parties now regard -you- as the one out of line; the victim calling ‘help’ a moment ago points the finger at you as the brute. It depends.

I wonder if it would be possible to get funding to do that study in a primary Muslim culture community.

Most of the tests like that are in primary Christian culture communities.

And yes, America is a Christian country from its founding. Disagree all you want, but the cultural foundation is Christian and even the roughest atheists in the US think and fell from a Christian perspective.

If I see a young man with a broken down car, I see it as a learning experience. If I see a lady with a broken down car, I stop to help.

A couple years ago, my two daughters and two female friends had a flat tire. They all knew how to change it and we’re just getting started when a guy pulled up and changed it for them. As it should be

Proves that our servicemen will get themselves killed rescuing that ‘damsel in distress’ under fire.
