That is a non-sequiter.
It doesn’t matter what sex your child is if he/she is hurting does it??
Or...maybe it does in your family.
Hey, I am all for men being men...I can’t stand the metrosexual crapola...but, jeez kabar...even ‘real men’ grieve when they lose someone....
These aren’t Marines out on the battle field..
Okay...forget it.
We both have our own opinions...and I am not saying I don’t agree with yours...I just think that 24 hours is too soon to expect these people to just get on with their lives like nothing happened.
I agree with you. I was saying the same thing on another thread.
After growing up with mostly males, I did not appreciate how different men and women are from another. Boys and girls are different. That may not be a profound observation, but it is a reality.

"Real" men are human. They grieve and have feelings. It is just a matter of how demonstrative you are publicly and for how long. Today, the trend seems to be to wallow in self-pity on the Oprah show. We are all victims. Life is hard and then you die.

They will never forget. The challenge is to get on with their lives despite what happened. That is true for people and nations.
