It’s cowardly to fight a girl.

And the only way leftists can trick people into changing the way they view traditional values like this is through dishonesty. They can’t just come out and say, “From now on it’s okay for men to fight women and girls, because it’s part of our Marxist ideology.” They must be wolves in sheep’s clothing, and they must be able to fool quite a few useful idiots.

Here’s some news: that little wolf is a coward.

Cowardice and dishonesty will always be just that—cowardice and dishonesty.

Joel Northrup shows how there is only one set of values strong enough to stand on its own merit, against all others—traditional Christian values.

“It’s cowardly to fight a girl.”
Twenty years ago I would have agreed with you. But if some female gorillas tried to stomp my daughter to death, we will fight. Cowardice would be standing by and watching it happen.

Anyway, Wrestling isn’t fighting.

A wrestling match is not a fight so your statement fails. However, if a 'girl' tries to kill you, is it still cowardly to fight back?

You use the term “fighting”, which is not what this is. This is the organized sport of wrestling. I believe in the traditional values, too, now with limits.

I am curious, given the lack of control nowadays in our youth as well, how would you defend yourself or a loved one against a woman/girl wielding a club, knife, sharp object, gun?

If truth be told, I suspect he secretly hoped for her getting a lip lock on his love muscle but was afraid to go for it.

Simpleman, you’re comments seem to me to be rather on the demented side.

Good luck with your daughters achieving a sense of self- confidence that will enable them to compete in world where sex is over-sold, over-stimulated and over-emphasized and where their competitors will be males, like yourself, with very little else on their little narrow minds.

They’re doing just fine.

They are superb athletes, straight A student in private school, can shoot a swinging can while ripsticking, and have both a sense of honor and humility.

As there mother is an MD and their father a retired Naval Aviator, they don’t lack for a sense of self-respect or positive role models.

If they ever “wrestle” with a boy, it will be for keeps and they’ll be punching for the throat and poking at the eyes.
