...Europe has the same birthrate problem and its economy has never been better.

WTH is this clown smokin'? 11.3% unemployment in Germany and France having to shorten the workweek to 'create' jobs.

If this, to paraphrase the old joke, is a 'super economy', I'll take the soup, thanks.

In order to make a marriage last, neither the man nor woman should constantly capitulate to the other. Joint decisions are what make marriage fun and worthwhile. The woman must enjoy the marriage as much as the man in order to keep it working properly.

Read "Death of the West" (2002) by Pat Buchanan and it will paint an even bleaker story about the declining birth rate, de-Christianization, feminization abetted by abortion on demand and a liberal judiciary which started it all by taking God out of American culture/schools.

The long march thru the institutions by the Left has succeeded and we are now in the painful position of trying to win back lost ground. Eight years of coke nose was the capstone.

A dead Frenchman has many good qualities, many things to recommend him; many attractions--even innocencies. Why cannot we have more of these?

And that's why the French want to run Europe through the EU? Sorry, the original premise of the story wandered off the path later in the article and got run over by a lorry.

For many years, feminist scholars were on a quest to find the great matriarchies of history. They assume there had to have been some, but they could never find any. Not a trace, anywhere. In desperation they began to posit great matriarchal cultures in Atlantis and so on.

It is kind of hard to believe that in the infinite variety of the world, there had never been even one matriarchal culture of size. In fact a better explanation is that such societies did arise, but something about them caused them to vanish without leaving a trace.

I think we are learning what that is.

However, Europe has the same birthrate problem and its economy has never been better.

Oh, puh-leeze. This is like pointing to a day when Clinton had laryngitis and noting that he has never been more honest.

Having been offered since the '60s a series of unattractive role models - Golden Boy, House Husband, Gay and Rambo

So what's the matter with Rambo? Damned French nancy-boys could learn a thing or two from him. I thought that was the whole point of the article.

From its 18th century Revolutionary War onward through the War of 1812, two world wars, Korea and the Gulf War, France has always been an American ally.

The author seems to have forgotten America's first war as an independent nation: The Quasi-War with France 1798-1801

How absurd, and of course such silliness would come from something like Elle.

Women have given away that power they always had, to demand support, commitment, and fidelity in return for *ahem* affection, home, children. Now no man need demonstrate his strength, though he needs speed to run from the women on the pursuit. He no longer wants his own children, just pleasure, because that's all he *has* to want. Men have the unilateral hand these days in relationships, because women have played their cards so poorly.

This is George Gilder-style (Sexual Suicide) thinking, who wrote it all down in the mid seventies.

In short, it's not so much that women have emasculated men as men no longer find it necessary to be masculine to live as comfortably as they please. As Buddhaboy has written so many times, there's milk aplenty out there without the need for a regular cow.
