Rahm Emmanuel was a ballerino. You can be a man and dance ballet as a man.

He’ll probably somehow get her power of attorney, then slap her into a nursing home at the earliest possible time, without phone service, and not telling anyone where she is.

I wouldn’t assume Mr. McClaren is a “he”.

The lead guitar player for the Who was a submissive homosexual. And supposedly the lead singer for the Who was sexually abused when he was very young. There is a lot of weird stuff in England. And that was before the Moslems arrived. With the Moslem rape culture in full force in England there will doubtless be more instances of songs and poetry about weirdness in England during the future.

“This is flat-out wrong. A boy does not need to embrace and appreciate girlish things to love and respect women.”

Yes. Her thinking off. About 180 off.

What is a gendered son?? A boy who behaves in a stereotypical manner as little boys do?? She’s worried her boy acts like a boy and is a boy??

Boys only will love and respect women if they had a loving caring mother. PERIOD. Boys will love and respect self (males), if they have a loving, caring father who loves self (men) and “the Other” (women—true diversity and the most difficult task that takes true virtue and true masculine maturity.)

Only people with virtue can sustain a civil society—all else tear it down.

This women is teaching her son that women are nasty, mean and tyrannical. He will grow up to either hate women or be made to hate his masculinity which will make him into a emasculated male (puerile narcissist), since his nature will be fundamentally damaged and that inner need for masculinity will never leave and he will get no respect from other true mature males. He will be used (a slave/addict/hater of God (nature) ) for life.

“You know what - There’s nothing wrong with sending your boy to ballet class - AS A BOY!”

True enough. This could backfire greatly on Mom in a number of ways.

And, this could help boy could end up end up a good athelete. The sense of balance, muscle control, mental and physical discipline could make him later excel at masculine sports or other tasks.

“. If I want my son to love and respect women, I am going to have to teach him to embrace—and ideally appreciate —“girlish” things. “

Maybe a better approach would be to show your son a little love and respect for males and masculinity rather than telling him he's defective.

Even male ballet dancers who happen to be homosexual are, as dancers, in no way feminine.

Ballet dancing is *entirely* feminine.Ten bucks says that 99.9% of the world's "male" ballet dancers hang out at the bath house in their free time.

Even in ballet there are strict and hard lines between the sexes. Boys are trained differently than girls and learn how to lift the ballerina, which is their main purpose. I’m sure momma will insist he wear a leotard and learn to dance on pointe, though.

She’s a sexist feminazi if she believes that kindness and decency are only feminine traits.

Tens of millions of American women have killed their kids in the past 50 years. An act that is neither kind nor decent, it’s a violent and selfish act.

Ballet dancing as an art form is not feminine at all. Male ballet dancers must be extremely physically strong and, if you’ve been to the best ballets, you’ll note the choreographers want the men to dance as...men. As for the sexuality of the male dancers...yes, many are gay in their personal lives, but not nearly all, and the ones who are straight are very virile. The 99.9% gay you cite is more applicable to male figure skaters.

She looks like one of those star-crossed Arquettes. Genetically predisposed to wackiness, if so.
