Hey....Kankune...
You know, I only wrote what I wrote as an example of liberal hypocrisy.
Yes, men do things women don't want to do, and, vice versa.
That is the nature of the sexes.
Why are some professions, or trades, dominated by men? Because they are brutal! Some things that need to be done in life are physical and risky. I think men, by nature, want to protect their women. I know I do.
And, I am not alone in this thinking.
Where do learn this respect and behavior?
From our parents.

I grew up in a, what was, a rural community. It is now a wealthy enclave, but, back in the 60's, it was very rural. The small school was right across the street. As a kid, my dogs would attend school as well as my older sister, younger sister and my younger brother. Yeah, it was that way. The dogs just couldn't stay home! They broke out of the yard and came to school.
Mom was a Nurse, Dad was a Physician. The many hours they worked and how they got us to our various activities amazes me to this day. I had sports, my sisters had sports, and my parents did it. I remember going on housecalls with my Dad, and he was taking all of us along....He had to...Mom was at the hospital.
I never knew if we were rich or poor. We always had food. And, I became the cook in the family. We're talking about 8 years old. Yeah.....
Mom was not a good cook....She will admit this...She didn't care so much....That's fine. She had a couple of good dishes.
But, she had a lot of cookbooks. So, I read them. Julia Child, mostly. So, I learned from scratch.

I made Baked Alaska at the age of 10.

From scratch.

I had freedom to do what I wanted. I wasn't told that "You are a boy...This is what you do..."
I was an All Star athlete, a professional ski racer, and have started and owned three businesses.

I have two daughters, and they are different people. One is very artistic, and the other is very athletic. But, I have only myself to be who I am.
My motto is " Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things..."

In the early 70's, my father made a decision to join the Peace Corps. His business partner and friend had already moved to Sierra Leone as a civil engineer for water systems. So, we, as a family, went to Africa. Imagine parents with four kids on a journey. Yes, my dad arranged being out of school for a year, thinking we would learn just as much. Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Senegal.....
It was truly an adventure....We all survived!

Now, I look at this protest and say.....Look at yourself.

Look at yourself.

Look what you do for others.

Kankune....I wish you well.

Ok.....So we have "A day without immigrants.." Now we have a day without Women....
'
It's silly, really.

Let's just take this to the absurdity......A day without Men. Guy's.....You have been hammered down for so long...It's time to rise up and .......Do nothing.....Rise up and do nothing.
By doing nothing, you and all males can send a message...You are able to do nothing.

And, I am not being racist. It's not only white males, it's every male. Let's do nothing together. We are on strike!
We'll show them.....The other..Ummmm.....
It doesn't matter, we take a stand, or sit.....Or lay down....But we are not going to be pushed around! Because if we just lay around, or sit, we are too heavy to be pushed around...Yeah...Get heavy.

Power of the pound!
