Women throw themselves at killers. Me...I can’t get a date.

Been there, done that.

A lot of women have what's called a "rescue fantasy." That's the idea that with the power of their love and affection, they can turn a "bad boy" into a "good husband," and have a lot of fun sex while doing it.

This is alluded to in the "kiss the frog and turn him into a prince" story, as well as (obviously) the "Beauty And The Beast" story line.

I see it developing in my own daughter, who is 16. She has a very strong desire to save the world, to "make the world a better place" in some indefinite way.

If this desire gets linked up with (a) romantic desire, (b) teenage rebellion, and (c) an attractive rogue con man, the results are very hard to stop. Impossible, typically.

All I can say to you is the advice I wish I had been smart enough to think of thirty years ago: Poland, my boy. Poland.

You probably already have, but a dad with a boy-crazy daughter needs to sit her down and explain that most men do not equate sex and conquest with love and commitment until much later in life than girls do, if ever; that some men think conquest a game and will be cruel about it and boast about it to other people; and that you love her and think she is very special and beautiful, and too valuable to throw herself away on someone who is not likely to change. Also, that your heart would be broken if someone hurts her; but if she makes a decision involving sex, you can’t rescue her from it; the consequences can be life-crushing and they will be hers to deal with.

You can channel save the world into preserve traditional America

What you’re describing is how progressives win
