On vacation last week, our family (2 girls - 18 and 21) told their dad they would only marry a real man like him and if he told them their boyfriend was a pansy, they'd drop him like a hot potato.

Real men raise real women who will only settle for the genuine article.

Amen to that. Real men are real fathers.

Raucous round of applause, a Guinness, and a kitten! Anoreth will have to find a man who’s stronger, tougher, smarter, and more religious than she is (*taller* will be the easy part :-), but I’m sure he’s out there. I’d just as soon she not be looking at 17, though.

Her past-tense “boyfriend” - two dates, one including their younger brothers - doesn’t know who the Vice President is. I can see why that faded :-).

Awesome. Families (FATHERS) really should protect their daughters from unworthy males seeking “partnership”.

As Voddie Baucham says, “you don’t even TALK to my daughter until I determine your worthiness as a husband. I’m not going to have you stealing her heart and THEN asking my permission to court her.”

Think about the side effect here, as well - males have to make themselves worthy instead of baggie pantsed Kurt Cobain wannabes.
