Word.

Your word is supposed to be your honor.

And this comic makes a great point. "Feelings" aren't supposed to interfere with law. Sure, there should be mercy if there is merit, but "feelings" should not enter into the equation with respect to, is Obamacare Unconstitutional, who owns GM's assets in a bankruptcy, the preferred bondholders or the unions, etc.

More than just Oprah was to blame, but she was a huge driver of the anti-male, "feel" movement. Some old enough to remember Oprah's early years her shows were VIRULENTLY anti-male. This softened a lot in her later years, but she has always been anti-MALE males but likes men who cry a lot. This might explain why she can't keep one.

As a woman, I must admit this. While I appreciate the freedom, opportunities, and choices available to me has a modern woman, a part of me wishes their were more REAL men out there. Men that do what they say, and say what they believe. Men, that are willing to protect me, watch out for his family, and I could care for. It seems that (especially being back in NYC) the American male has morphed into my tomboy friend from Jr. HS. Anyhoo, just a note to the American male, …;0) …. Grow a pair, a stand up and be MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good day. ;0)

Great toon Mr. Muir
When will we see this as an animated show ?
I am sure Red Eye would show it.

There is nothing wrong with compassion and feelings, but there's also nothing wrong with the male side of that – rules boundaries and limitations (i.e. the law and one's word). Society should exist as a balance between the two. I think we've gone too far on the spectrum toward the side of compassion and feelings and now we exist too much in chaos as a society. There's no one set of rules or laws for everybody, and whether or not we keep our word depends on how we "feel" more than anything, look at the state of modern marriage.

Yes, there are some of us left in the world today Kristine….

We take pride in holding a door open for a lady, stand aside in a narrow corridor to let a lady pass first, say excuse me when we approach a lady we may need to assist, introduce ourselves to a lady with a proper handshake, allow a lady to go first, hold and slide a chair while a lady is seated at a dinner table, compliment a lady on her appearance, respect a lady in the workplace, and many other manners attributed to the proper ways of treating a lady….

A part of WE men wish there were more ladies out there as do ladies such as yourself……

And we men also give all women the benefit of the doubt that they are a lady as I do give you at this moment….

We truly do have a desire to be chivalrous….we know ladies love that in a man, and in doing so can act as a compliment to our character and self-respect….

Thanks for encouraging us to do what we feel we've been needing to do all along….

Attempts to use European case law as basis for decisions made by the Supreme Court,
the movement to remove the Constitution from relevancy because it is out dated and
stands in the way of this country's total commitment to socialism, also has the element
of feelings being more important than justice, justice based on law of what is right and
wrong, compassion and fairness should have a part in the decision making but not the
only factors considered. Gray areas, nuances, all the things the left love to imply
the right does not understand is already changing our society in very unpleasant ways.

America needs to keep its own values and culture in mind. Preserve this great Country where law abiding people want to live in safety and peace, with individual freedoms and Rights. Unfortunately this Administration does not hold these values to be self evident! Word.

I've been around awhile too. I've watched American culture spend several decades demanding softer, gentler men, at the same time encouraging stronger, harder women. That's filtered down into how boys and girls are raised and educated. And now we hear, "Where are the REAL men?". LOL!

Kudos to you.

There are some feminist groups that would like government to assume a surrogate provider / protector role as part of enabling women's independence from men. Obviously there are also other larger forces with other motivations, pushing for a centralized, controlling governmet.

I really do envy to some extent the people who grew up before liberalism and feminism came along and fouled up and confused the relationship between men and women. And before the days liberals convinced so many people that an unborn child was just a "blob of cells" like so much snot in your handkerchief.

I'm with you, Kristine. Where are those men? I married a man that in the end, was not a man, despite many years in the service. He is the most selfish person I have ever known, and has absolutely no idea how to be in a relationship. He was only happy when he was getting everything he wanted and wasn't too much into "giving".

Now that may not be a "feminist" problem per se, but perhaps it is. He treated me like a roommate with benefits. Oh, and I think I've learned that when a man constantly says that he doesn't mind if I make more money than him, it's probably a red flag.
