Treat Him Like a Son or He Won’t Respect You
A crack in the feminine psyche allows bad men to disempower good women.
“The day she begins to catch sight of every drop of patriarchal oppression, disrespect, and abuse in her immediate surroundings …”
There was a time in history when men tipped their hats to a lady as she went by, and at the very least, they took their hats off when entering a home with ladies present.
Obviously, that time in history has long passed. The universal respect for the Feminine and the universal idea that men show their worth when treating women and children like human beings has been lost.
Currently, we occupy a globe that degrades women for sport.
Womanizing has become more common than monogamy.
There are middle-aged men that are still comfortable behaving like little boys, and clearly, there are many other men that find this acceptable.
Men do not, as a collective, correct men that abuse women. They are rarely allies — and hell — even women have fallen short of correcting men that abuse women, and sadly, this is the norm.
