This is likely the way that the vast majority of men feel.

I am not interested in being a faux woman. I am happy with being a man.

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

Boys need to wail on the bully like Ralphie did in A Christmas Story. He really taught that bully a lesson. The problem with that tactic is what I alluded to earlier, and that is where the "authorities" at the school then descend upon the one who has finally had it with being defenceless ...

How about this for a motto: "Renounce the Renunciation!" ? I think that has a nice little punch to it.

Re: Hypothethical Question

Society still thinks in terms of "A Label". WHY, WHY , WHY :?: If YOU have a solution to this "problem", you might win a Nobel Prize :!: And the typical guy has two boxes for classification, "Normal" and "Queer". It's that simple. "GNC, trans=*, LGBTQWTF...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

No one is teaching kids to stand up for themselves. You aren't allowed to punch a bully in the face. A kid who does that will be in more trouble than the bully. That compounds the problem by turning the victim into a double-victim. He gets beaten up by the bully, finally stands up and does somethin...

Re: Hypothethical Question

The trick is to make skirts seem normal for the average guy. The average un -GNC guy. And this is hard not only because of the Taboo, but we need to make something seem normal even though that something is a novelty for most men. Precisely -- mainly because there are one heck of a lot more guys out...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

If they can’t bully you in school, the will wait until you get off the school bus and then two or three bullies (they always operate in numbers) will beat the crap out of you for the fun of it. I speak from experience. At which point it becomes a matter for the parents and/or the police. Interperso...

Re: Hypothethical Question

We can used “newspeak” to our advantage. Men that loose touch with new concepts are going to get left behind and will stagnate while others will move forward and accomplish their goals. No, "newspeak" is well discredited by anybody over about 50. Orwell warned us about this, recall. Now, ...

Re: Hypothethical Question

I believe that you are viewing this incorrectly. Have you looked up the definition for GNC? Here are two definitions: The problem is that both of those are (1) very new and very "Politically Correct" and (2) did not exist 30 years ago, and look at the ages of men who may be contemplating ...

Re: giant skirts

hoops crinolines and petticoats, has anyone here actually worn one of these before outside of the house? I know they aren't something to be trifled with as driving and other things would be a pain and, most women have probably never even worn these outside of a wedding. Petticoats are not all that ...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

Not really possible, I'm afraid. There are so much kids compared to the school staff, that it is simply impossible to check everywhere. You're largely right on that count, but having the Administration on it's feet, paying attention, and inculcating that bullying will not be tolerated, and have har...

Re: Hypothethical Question

I wouldn't change a thing about me or my attire. The drab, heavy, "masculine" is already available in every store that sells jeans, Dockers, & similar dreck.

Let men be human! Don't stuff us into little tiny boxes. The coffin of "macho" is too confining.

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

There can never be any hope for boys because boys will police each other. Well, if the various "administrations" would actually do their damned jobs and finally suppress bullying behaviours in the population of pupils there'd be a heck of a lot less trouble. Unfortunately, they won't beca...
