Well, another Father's Day this Sunday. Are you like me --- a little surprised that we still celebrate Father's Day in this country?
Think about it. We certainly don't celebrate fathers anymore. So why do we still celebrate Father's Day? Fathers have become passe in 2019 America. Mothers are wonderful, fathers are not really necessary.

This is such a sad article by Mr. Crosby but unmistakably true.
Instead of prancing and preening, women should be the ones who are despairing over the current cultural disrespect for men - since time began, men have responsibly fulfilled their natural roles of providers and protectors and they have done it quietly - wanting no applause or fanfare.
Like most of the stories of the Amazon women of history, the modern tale of the superiority of feminist sisterhood is a sad invention - their superiority is a myth and dwells in a place that only exisits in their minds - they still want and need men and they know it.
Who did most of the women of this country choose to be its leader? Despite all of their posturing and pouting, they didn't choose the shirill, bitter, and overly-praised woman, they chose, instead, the strong, independent, steadfast man.
The images and opinions fed to us by the media and academic cultural revisionsts are false. For one tiny example, a woman in peril will always - ALWAYS - hope that it is a man who responds when she yells, "help".
Thank you, men - fathers, grandfathers - all men who fulfill and have fulfilled the responsibilities of fatherhood - thank you and happy, blessed Father's Day. We respect you, we admire you, we love you, and we are forever grateful to you from the whole of our hearts.

Make no mistake- the destruction of masculinity by the Left has been carefully orchestrated.
LBJ made the government “daddy” for millions of Americans. It’s been disastrous. It created a convenient underclass that must always find a sugar daddy to vote for.

Take a look at almost every commercial which has children in it. Almost every one has no father figure in it. Mom does everything. Every sitcom has men as punchlines or useless. As does most movies. The only time men appear in a movie is as some villain getting beat up or killed by women half their size. With all the hoopla about the 75th anniversary of D Day this past week, I suspect that if the movie " Saving Private Ryan" were made today, it would be titled, " To hell with that male, the world doesn't need him".

I took a night class in TIG welding last winter. A common pre-class conversation was guys in their 20s and 30s talking about having no intention of getting into monogamous relationships with women and absolutely not getting married. It wasn’t just the lack of respect they
noted but the predatory scheming, of using men as tools, stepping
stones and scapegoats.
When younger I couldn’t imagine being unattached but as an older
guy I’ve learned that being alone doesn’t necessarily mean loneliness.
I don’t need constant chatter, noise and disruption but I suspect these man-using and mocking harpies, these abusive, noisy man-haters will
someday find themselves old, alone and lonely.

"We certainly don't celebrate fathers anymore."
What do you mean "we," pussy? Our family does. It's up to us guys to keep it going. So stop whining, and do it.
