Congratulations! The news about moving back to VA was a bit of a shocker, but people do get homesick after a while, and moving is always a traumatic event. But at least you had the courage to try!

Re: Why a drab monochrome world?

The lack of colour everywhere makes for a very depressing outlook, maybe its time for us all to put some colour back in our lives, it might make the world a happier place. By the gods, YES! Please bring back colour and style to the world. The Belle Epoch may be long gone, but the occasional memory ...

Re: Doing away with "Embracing feminity"

I don't understand this size of box reducing for men talk one bit. I think it has gone the other way. You just have to look at the amount of hair and skin product the average young man buys. Think of it not in terms of the "products" that one buys, but the rage of expressions and behaviou...

Re: Doing away with "Embracing feminity"

Really??? There are ways to fix this problem - either accept that a man can like stereotypically feminine things... or realize that feminine/masculine is a bunch of bs for a lot of stuff (sorry for my language) and that society is fixated on concepts that are outdated and need to be thrown out. The...

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

The land of the free is becoming less free as the years pass and the US population doesn't seem to notice or care anymore about being free. IMHO viewed from this side of the pond. It's widely viewed in the same way on this side of the pond, too. There's just no recourse to it as the election system...

Re: Pride

The US is gearing up for an election pitching two plain old straight guys against each other for the zillionth time, with their campaigns funded mainly by stupidly wealthy plain old straight guys. Meanwhile two plain old straight guys are making deals between China and Russia. This is raw power and...

Re: It's Time

Ah, but the above only works if one lives in a world where the day is 12 hours long. Most of, I suspect, live in one where there are 24. Yes, I use a 24-hour clock. At least in my case a stopped watch is only wrong once per day! As far as the kiddies and digital time go... They can just learn about ...

Re: Greatest Influence On Children

I am really sorry for you crfriend. I know there are many problems in this world, but to take your view and give up on human life is really hard. My wife and I have produced two wonderful children who are now grown up and taking their place in the world. Rather than hatred, I have love from two won...

Re: Pride

I'm old school. I understand what this thread is discussing but, when I was growing up, pride meant something totally different. A person took pride in their work or achievements. A person took pride in their community, family. Parents were proud of their children's achievements, graduating High Sc...

Re: Greatest Influence On Children

So, please remember this - YOU are the first - and best - teacher and role model for your children. I thank the gods daily that I have no progeny. I glimpsed what this place was going to become in the late 1970s and swore I would never have children. I do not believe I could take the hatred of a ch...

Re: Doing away with "Embracing feminity"

Indeed Moon, it's the way we behave when interacting with others that wins hearts and minds. Be open, honest, generous when one can be, and offer no apologies save for when you've actually wronged another accidentally.

Re: Dr Who

I think Uncle Al missed the whole point of the show. In regenerating the Doctor should have gone into Jodie Whittaker’s clothes, The new doctor body in the clothes of the old doctor. Total logic in the story. Man doctor in woman doctors's clothes. I don't know how familiar Al is with the premise of...

Re: Pride

Wear what you want. That's the whole point. That's why we're trying to break down the barriers, the stereotypes, and the disdain. What you wear should not really be a signifier of what you are; it should reflect how you feel in the moment. Thus, the simple act of shoving both legs down one pipe shou...
