Is it any surprise that we're in the state you find "shameful"?

Richielion: We have lost far too many rugged individuals because of many years of exposure to the trophy generation and to helicopter parents. In part is is one of the bad by products of the feminist movement, Another bad by product resulted with the disappearance of true feminity and nuturing. Instead we get the likes of the House Wives of .............and reality shows of its ilk. there is a saving grace because there are reports on the horizon of guys who have come to recognize this loss and want to counter it. and along those same lines women are returning to what a man use to represent. Let's hope it becomes a movement because whether some people believe it or not men are different from women and I don't mean it in the sense that women are the weaker gender. This is a good thing because guided correctly they complement one another making for a better society.
I opine others can decide.
