Touching but reminds me of this vid I saw.

They interviewed something like 12 men and women supposedly at random from some Slavic country and asked them if they would die for their spouse. About 11/12 of the men would have and maybe 10/12 of the women said they would NOT.

LOL

There is that toxic masculinity again.

That is the way it has always been and that is the way it should be. God created men to protect and to provide for women. We need to accept this and trash the liberal feminist ideology that would have us believe that men and women are the same.

If there are children in the equation, this is perfectly understandable.

As demanded by God from the male of the species.

It's called 'male privilege'.

Bear your cross with pride, my brother.

Need more information. Did the women have children?

There is a lot of the current globohomo insanity that has to be permanently put aside if modern civilization is to survive.

—”Need more information. Did the women have children?”

What difference would that make?

Neta made an instinctual move, no time for thinking.

Work on the trolly problem, when you solve it; pls show your work.

“Among those who served on Iwo Jima, uncommon valor was a common virtue.” And not just Iwo.

I was asking about the women in the survey that Phoenix8 cited.

And the female urge to care for and provide for children is also an instinct - one of the strongest we have.

That is a valid question and a point I agree makes a difference.

Where does this instinct originate?
IMO, it is love pure and simple.
Not hate.

I worked in Chicago for many years and visited Olive Park occasionaly for remembrance of Milton Olive.

An article about a great American who did his duty and paid the ultimate price. A good read that should be read by all Americans.

https://www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces/38621/MILTON-L-OLIVE-III/page/6/

THE MEN OF OLIVE COMPANY -

FOUR SOLDIERS SURVIVED VIETNAM

BECAUSE MILTON LEE OLIVE III DID NOT

The men he saved are now grandfathers and great-grandfathers.

There’s little chance you’ve heard of them, yet they, too, are heroes. The ordinary, everyday heroes we send off to war and then forget.

This is their story: who they were and who they became because a skinny teenager from the South Side gave them the gift of life.

...He still saves a tattered piece of metal from that day. It is Milton Olive’s dog tag. It’s about an inch long and weighs no more than a nickel. One edge looks as if a wild animal took a bite out of it; another has been pierced by something evil, leaving a jagged hole in its once-shiny silver skin. Yrineo has kept it for 37 years.

” To me,” he says, “ it’s something sacred.”
