I for one, love this article, Mom...

I totally agree with it and I'm glad to see it posted here.

I had a traditional upbringing in a loving home. My mother and father were best friends, lovers, and a team, although their roles were different. I never perceived one as more 'important' or 'above' the other, but I felt security and strength in each parent on different things. Together they made a unifying and protective cuccoon for me.

When I left home to go to school I was armed with a secure and self confident personality and atittude. However as fate would have it, I went on to marry not just once, to men who seemed very nice and loving at the beginnning but who had no such good role modeling before them. The result was that when the pressures of marriage and life came down upon them, they were unable to cope and behave in a responsible and manly manner, so they started to fall apart and tear me up in the process. They also had no idea of how a wife who is doing her part in a loving, nurturing way is supposed to be honored and validated. And yet, like Parismatch, when my turn to demand what the judicial system would have demanded from me, I chose the higher path of asking for no more than what I needed. In the end, I have received much more than I would have if I allowed bitterness to be my council.

I see such a misguided contingent in some of these forums, with people asserting that this is a nation of sexually repressed people, when in reality it is a culture of sexual excesses without any solid foundation. A foundation that as the article Mo4 posted, was undermined and discarded by the engineers of the feminist lies. People just don't realize that healthy sexual behavior is not learned from sexual how-to lessons from Kindergarten on, but in loving, nurturing, compassionate homes where a mom is a true caring mom and a dad behaves like a responsible, protective dad. Hugs and kisses at all times to the children and between spouses teach a child true love. Empty lessons on sexual behavior teach just that. And this is just one of the ways in which people fall into the lie.

I truly pray and feel concern over who my beautiful daughter will marry someday, in a society where men have lost their identity and women are trying to wear more testosterone than their blueprints can fit.
