Modern feminism has caused nothing but harm to society. The original feminists, those who fought for the right to vote, for the right to be recognized as full citizens, etc., they are rolling in their graves right now. They were pro-life, they were pro-family, they were pro-morals and pro-God. Modern feminists are against all that is good. <BR/><BR/>Personally, I think it's very difficult to meet a man who encompasses the values that are important to me, but it seems that the younger generation is finding that moral footing. Doesn't help me, but I am hopeful that since those older than I, and those of my decade have made such a moral wreck of things that the younger generations can witness this and change things.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-1153740681807812332006-07-24T06:31:00.000-05:002006-07-24T06:31:00.000-05:00Adoro,Hard job you have!!! I used to bartend year...Adoro,<BR/>Hard job you have!!! I used to bartend years ago as an extra job and had to quit because I began to despise these people I had to wait on. I was treated like an object from the time I came in to the time I left. After a year I couldn't take it anymore and would find myself talking to myself under my breath...There wasn't any way to defend myself from their disgusting comments. I also began to see my husband as less than a real man... began to lump them all together. Ha! It was hard to separate being so immersed in icky-ness. I am glad God gave me the grace to see I just couldn't deal with it and leave--the $$ was fantastic but not worth it. I think you are doing a great job. I agree with you in that when people cross my boundaries they are made aware of it ASAP. I don't allow it any longer. I am a little over 40 and it has taken over twenty years to confront others. I always think people are good until they show they are being bad and I let them know I am quite aware of it!! I have no obligation to be used by anyone and it won't happen without my responding. I am a woman and should expect excellent behavior from men in particular--when I don't get it they are told period. I am not an aggressive person as I am sure you aren't but no one is going to abuse me. Well, actually I can't stop that part can I? but No one will do it without my telling them I know what they doing and DO NOT accept it! I wish other men would be the ones policing their fellow men but it doesn't seem to be happening. I cannot believe the rudeness at times. It is extremely hurtful and frightening. There are times that you of course cannot respond out of fear for a worse reaction. Physical. You have to be prudential I guess, but I am tired of being treated poorly or seeing anyone treated that way and I cannot watch it and say nothing. <BR/>God Bless and thank you for your post!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-1153605185441115102006-07-22T16:53:00.000-05:002006-07-22T16:53:00.000-05:00Tech, Thank you for your comment. However, I have...Tech, <BR/><BR/>Thank you for your comment. However, I have to respectfully disagree. Jesus sure let loose with both verbal barrels, or have you never read the Gospel of John? And don't forget about the incident in the temple when he fashioned a whip and went after the traders and money changers. He sure wasn't the meek and gentle lamb we tend to want to see him as today. <BR/><BR/>Jesus, while loving, charitable, etc., did not let stuff slide and had no problem telling it like it was. I take my example from Him. <BR/><BR/>As a side note, I'm not sure you're aware that when you post in all caps, it gives the impression of "SHOUTING", and does affect readability for some people. It can tend to overpower your true intention and what you are really conveying. I realize that you certainly are NOT "shouting" at me or anyone else, but it is the overall tone of your post due to the use of caps. <BR/><BR/>God bless you and thanks again for your comment! :-)Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.com
