Some may laugh and mock but I miss those days. It should be remembered that men had a similar code towards how to treat their wives.

I'm old enough to remember when there were clear differences between how boys and girls were treated in school. The girls went to home economics classes where they were taught to bake and how to maintain a household budget and the boys were sent to woodworking and auto mechanic classes where we learned to make things and how to change plugs in a car engine, etc. This was all in addition to the math, science, history and english classes that we all took together.

When I was in 7th grade I remember one time when the girls from a kitchen class down the hallway came in to our industrial arts class to share with us cupcakes they had made. In return, our industrial arts teacher had us boys make the girls ceramic mugs that we went over and presented to them about a week later.

That would NEVER happen today. And that's too bad.

EXACTLY.

A healthy, lasting culture understands the importance of roles and relationships between men and women. The communists have thoroughly poisoned our well.

The cupcakes and mugs dynamic has been destroyed in most of modern society.

It’s a forgery.
