Why I'm Raising My Kids to Be Feminists [Justin Trudeau on 'toxic maculinity']
MarieClaire.com ^ | 11 Oct 17 | Justin Trudeau

Posted on 10/11/2017 11:39:09 AM PDT by seanmerc

I am in politics because every day, I get to work to make the world a little better—for my kids, and for yours. I’m proud of the dedicated work our team is doing to make Canada more open, more inclusive, more just—and gender equal. But some of the most important work I do is not as a political leader, but as a parent. Every day, at home, I have the astonishing and humbling opportunity—together with my wife Sophie—to nurture empathy, compassion, self-love, and a keen sense of justice in our three kids.

I must have missed that part.

Here's your most recent whine. Looks like your little troll eyes are wellin' all up but you're tryin' to keep it together and your fixin' to run to teacher. By the way, who is this "we" you refer to. Got a gerbil in yer pocket?

So now we can show that even an innocuous and on topic comment from me will draw fire from you.

*School

I said shool yard bitch. If I'da meant school I'da said school. I have no idea what kind of bitch you were in school. Never correct your betters.

Have you ever noticed that white men are the only group that fights to give themselves LESS power and influence.

For those of us involved on this thread on fraternities, and without rehashing the very reasonable anti-fraternity arguments (ie anybody who'd kill a pledge SHOULD be locked up, and men treating women as chattel are vile humans), please consider Trudeau as embodying the commanding zeitgeist on campuses... and that fraternities - warts and all - as one of the last roadblocks (as flawed they are) before the obliteration of masculinity on campuses.

to nurture empathy So real men (not Beta Males like Mme Trudeau) can't be sympathetic? Might want to ask Mrs WBill about me, or any of the men in my family.

compassion, So, real men aren't compassionate? Talk to anyone in the Cajun Navy, who just bailed out Houston.

self-love, Not going there.

and a keen sense of justice Oh, I've got one of those, too. I keep it on top of my BS detector. Keeps the detector from vibrating off the desktop whenever I read something like this....

Yes, I’m guilty of being mildly observant.

You seem rather hostile.

I hope your day gets better.

Awwwww I take it all back. You really are a sweet guy. You should run for Prime Minister of Canada.

See? Right back on topic.

If you’re going to change a headline, at least spell the addendum correctly.

‘Toxic masculinity’? You may be right. But Trudeau didn’t use the term. At least it is nowhere in the linked article.

I have trouble believing that even Justin Trudeau actually believes this garbage. I think it’s like Michelle Obama’s recent interviews: he knows it’s all lies, but some of the True Believers and some of the donors will buy it.

As an Alaskan, having driven through British Columbia and the prarie provinces to the “lower 48” numerous times, I can tell you that western Canada, more particularly the prarie provinces, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, depise Trudeau.

It is a mistake to judge the entire country of Canada by Trudeau, as it was for Canada to judge the US by Obama.

No, we women don’t love bad boys or little sissies like Trudeau. We love real men.
