They’re losers, that’s why. They should ask themselves what their grandfathers would have done. It would be a better world if Japanese and German men were real men again ... umm, without the warlike tendencies.

I knew a German engineer, who was a little more manly, and frowned on this. He called men who do this "sitzpincklers" or something like that. And it was NOT a complementary term, let me tell you.
