“Whatever you do to my daughter, I will do to you”
Hah, that works!
In this society, that’s hardly an act of “overprotectiveness.” Actually, it’s preventive medicine.
My brother was old fashion when it came to those things. His daughter’s date would find him sitting at the kitchen table, oiling his shotgun. My brother would say nothing more than “have her home by 11 pm. Any questions?”
Dad, the white knight simp.
Creating yet another feminist that sees boys as nothing but just a pre-rapist while she apparently doesnt have hormones or a brain in her head.
I prefer the old Blue Collar dude who said he would tell prospective dates for his daughter, “I ain’t afraid to go back to jail”....
How is that “overprotective”?
Funny story for you, Whiskey. My youngest brother was about 17 and took a 16 year old neighbor to a dance. He met the parents and asked the Dad what time to have her home. Dad said “uh... after the dance”. On the way home, he hit a patch of ice after seeing an entire herd of deer in the road. Long story short, he flipped the car.. all about a block from her home. He walked her home (both were okay) and met the Dad at the door. He explained he was 10 minutes late and why... Dad’s response, “You know this mean you have to marry her now, right?” My brother just stared at him and the Dad started laughing like crazy.. plus, he then used his truck and another neighbor to flip the car back right. I still chuckle about that story...
I like the line in Clueless: “I got a gun and a shovel. I doubt you will be missed.”

Bill Engvall plan to prevent potential boyfriends from taking advantage of his daughter]
I’m going to pull him in tight next to me so only he and I can hear the conversation. And I’m gonna say to him, “Boy, look at me. You see that little girl right there? She’s my only little girl, man. She’s my life. So if you have any . . . thoughts . . . about huggin’, or . . . kissin’, you remember these words:
‘I’ve got no problem going back to prison.’”

Sam: Well, to come straight to the point of the matter, Sir, I want to ask for your daughter’s hand.
Mr. A.: You mean you want to marry her, Sam?
Sam: Yes, Sir.
Mr. A.: Why do you want to marry her?
Sam: Well, I love her, Mr. Anderson.
Mr. A.: That’s not good enough, Sam.
Sam: I beg your pardon?
Mr. A.: Do you like her?
Sam: Well, I just said I—
Mr. A.: No, no, you said you loved her. There’s some difference between lovin’ and likin’. When I married Jenny’s mother I didn’t love her, I liked her. I liked her a whole lot. I liked Martha for at least 3 years after we were married, and then one day it just dawned on me I loved her. I still do…I still do. You see Sam, when you love a woman without likin’ her the night can be long and cold and contempt comes up with the sun, and…Do you understand all this I’m tellin’ ya?
Sam: Yes, Sir.
Mr. A.: Well?
Sam: Oh, well, I like Jenny, Sir. I’ve always liked her.
Mr. A.: Then you be good to her, because if you don’t, it’s between you and me, boy.
Sam: Thank you, Sir. Thank you, Sir!
