Before I get into the particulars of this subject I want to mention a thing or two about my beloved Fatherland. What is it that truly makes America great? Some will say its it tolerance, others its progressive spirit. My beliefs for American greatness doesnt have anything to do with either of these. I believe America is great because of its natural beauty, its power and confidence, the tradition and heritage of its many peoples and above all the fact that it is free. So how does this relate to the subject of men and women? Lets begin.
Great men from the ages have been set apart from other men for being just that...manly. They are individuals who, above all else make the moral decisions no matter the consequences. They are protectors and defenders, and are never the types to take the backseat to anything. Men should never play the victim, rather take control and be assertive. In many ways, this is the history of our country. We do not act victimized by others, and when in the past when we faced tyranny we faced and defeated it. So it is as a man.
But what about women? They should typify all the things that this great country stands for ((beauty, confidence, refinement, tradition and freedom(I will expound more on this subject)). The reason women are great is the influence they exert on men, in other words to refine and make them better. In fact women do make men better. Men act like disgusting pigs around each other, but when a woman is around that is not the case. They should refrain from vulgarity, and crudeness because women stand against all these things, or they should. That is why men want women in their lives, because they perfect them. They soften them, ease them and give them a puropse for living. Why have so many men left home in the past to fight wars? In many cases it was for the love of a woman. I was watching a Korean war film the other day and found myself in tears. It wasnt the patriotism of the movie that caused it rather the love the man had for his wife who he saw murdered before his eyes. Men need to act like men, that is be responsible and protective. Women should be refined. Both cause each other to be better.
Finally, is the last attribute of America that women should excude. That is of freedom, or better yet allowing freedom to their husbands. Im not talking about the freedom of letting him go "hang with the boys" while she stays home and takes care of the kids. Rather allowing men to be men. I am so sick and tired of manliness being stripped from our culture. Boys cant act like boys because when they do they are considered ADD and are pumped full of meds to calm them down. Manliness is seen as oppressive and ignorant when in reality I can think of nothing more respectful than a prideful man putting all his arrogance to the side and offering respect to a woman. Have you ever seen a mean bitter man completely change because of the influence of a good woman in his life? This is proof that they make them better. If a woman acted just like one of the guys then that is all she would be considered and the respect that men offer women shouldnt and wouldnt be offered to them. But when she enters a room and the "boys" change (in other words stop swearing, farting or harshly criticizing each other) then you know she is a true woman.
I can think of no better woman than my own mother. She is this kind of woman. In one way she has caused me to be better is in overcoming my horrible vulgarity problem. I could drop a string of profanity on you that would make Ludacris blush. But when my mother is around that doesnt happen. I want to open doors for her in public, I want to stand for her when she enters the room because I know that she has refined me, made me better (and not on God's green earth would my father have ever been able to do that). So, men, respect women, and ladies allow men to be men and respect you and do the things that earn that respect.
