Mommy vs. media in sexualization of girls: Where are the dads?

[chaska]

27. The role of the father is to protect the girl from predatory men.

All men are predatory to some degree. There would be no reproduction without this instinct/impulse. And that won't change.

Where we went wrong is destruction of the family unit. You can name your own reasons for that. But there is an absolutely crucial role for fathers and we make a huge mistake by allowing ourselves the illusion that they are not important.

Forgive my non-pc-ness here but we need to bring back shame. Shame along with community in general is dying in our society in particular and in the world in general. It needs to return. Single motherhood is not acceptable. Divorce - and marriage - needs to be a lot tougher to get.

Hey Redqueen, s'been a while. Hope you're doing well.
