We constantly are given the impression that boys are predators when it comes to girls.

Let me tell you, over the years I have seen parents initiate behavior in their daughters that would freak you out!!! Starting in the 3 rd grade!! The phone calls all day and night! By the 5th grade, presents and invites to movies and dinner etc. By middle school, it got really insane! Mothers encouraging their daughters to be so provocative because they saw that as a way to make their girls popular!

I was recently at a baseball tournament 13 yr. olds, one of the boys on the other team had his “girlfriend” there, they were all over eachother! It blew my mind!!

My older boys are not into the “hooking up”, though many or their friends do. My 19 yr. old and his HS sweetheart broke up, she went off the college, he into the Army, they remain friends but recently he said to me, “hooking up is disgusting, if a girl will hook up with me for a night, it means she has done it with a lot of other guys as well, that is so nasty, who knows where that mouth has been”.

“That pretty much describes most guys 18 and up in the deep south. Fashion = boxers and a T-shirt at home, Jeans and T-shirt outside. (unless at work)”

As a female, I’d like to ask those who are still brave enough to be masculine, PLEASE CONTINUE! Society needs men to be men! Don’t give up..EVER!

Not only that but physically men are becoming feminised. Skinny, pale, with no muscle mass, no body hair - big heads planted on a stick. I have chest hair and hair on my forearm and I’ve had many girls say it’s gross but I don’t care.

You must be speaking of young, naive girls. Trust me, hairy chests are sexy to a woman looking for a real man.

Rush Limbaugh really set the ball rolling when he coined the term Feminazis. The radical feminists never recovered from that.

This younger generation is everything that the Greatest Generation was.They will be the ones to take the country back”...

First of all, thank your son and his colleagues for their service to this country.

However,

1. Be careful to use Marines or anyone else from the military as "representative" of the Millenial generation. Only a small percentage of the US population serves in the military, and they are drawn disproportionately from certain regions and religious traditions. Much as I hate to say it, most of your son's generation aren't up to snuff, but will hopefully learn lifes lessons the hard way as I did.

2. Don't fall for the "Greatest Generation" myth that was invented by LEFT WING journalist Tom Brokaw. The GI Generation gave us the Great Society and 40 years of Dem Socialist control of our congress.
