It is not a matter of me having a chip on my shoulder, or my son having a chip on his shoulder.

I am not trying to be provocative. I am just trying to point out what I see as really fatal flaws in our society.

Denigrating males, making them like women, making fun of anyone who displays manly qualities, encouraging females to have families without being married or without the input of husbands, is a total disaster for our country.

Encouraging young males to hang around the house until they are 30 is part of the problem.

Calling males provocative or saying they have a 'chip on their shoulder' when they point out things such as I have done, is just another specious, vague, uncritical, meaningless put-down, which I reject. It is like saying, "all boys are just troublemakers". It is lame.

If you can refute anything I have said in this post or the last, please do.

It's just too convenient to blame everything on people you don't like - "homos, dykes, and women in the workplace." Sometimes we have to take responsibility for what WE do, not what people around us are perceived to do TO us.
