I could see my husband going to something like that.
"The Promise Keepers is an organization that is putting a vision and a mission out there to pull men back to a patriarchal stance," Dietzel said. "This is how we see it. The notion of putting women back in their place."
What is wrong with that?
Yes, 'ccc' there still real men. It's quite the experience to attend any PK conference and absorb the 'spirit' the 'earnestness', the humilty of +22,000 men. Men of all ages, all races, nationalities praising, worshiping, singing as one 'manly' voice. Men striving to further their commitment to marriage...to honor their wives as set forth in Ephesians.
Bwhaaaahhhahahah..... Millee....you are funny!!! Thanks for the laugh, I needed it!
There's still a lot of us out there like your dad. Keep looking and you'll find 'em.
I'm not a real fan of PK for doctrinal reasons but I admire them for championing real manhood.
I guess they're supposed to cower and grovel at the accusation of being anti-gay, apologizing all over the place and begging forgiveness! They ought to say, "Yeah, you're darned right we're anti-gay behavior! We follow the Bible. Next question?" Same thing with "racist" or "sexist" or any of these other names the left throws at us. I wish people would stop apologizing and trembling at being called those names. We ought to just laugh when people call us that. Then the names will lose their sting.
I dunno CCC, I'm with you. I say they are as scarce as an octopus living in the middle of the Sonoran Desert.
I dont' know about your dad, but mine was a staunch, hard-headed conservative, honorable, married to one woman only (Mom)....and had the looks of Tom Cruise!
Hey MSM, piss off!
Must have to do with where you live. In my part of town, with few exceptions, the men I know are strong, honorable, honest and extremely family oriented.
This attitude is much stronger among the guys at my church, but most of the guys I work with are similar.
I had that feeling of that when I lived (and grew up) in Southern California. All the guys I wanted to date, lived somewhere else (no less than 400 miles away.)
Finally, a gay guy told me, "you're too nice of a girl to be living in So. Cal." That was 1992.
Moved to AZ. I've met four I really wanted to go out with since moving here, dated only one of them. And that was 10 years ago.
Some things are just not meant to happen. And I meet many new people daily in my work (and regular time) so it isn't a matter of "getting out there.".
I draw the line on dating services, on-line stuff, "singles" groups. No way. I'd rather stay single than post the "ad" if you know what I mean. :)
Dear NOW leadership:
Just shut up and get me a beer, will ya?
Signed,
Men of America
