Male Mystique
Sounds as if
you lacked caring acknowledgements of your good parts. Your parents just
lacked permission to do this, as apparently did mine. It was a bad comment or
nothing. Very self destructive. Don't do this to your daughter. Give her more
praise than you feel comfortable giving. It will never be enough. She will love
you for life for doing this. Don't use the chicken Mommie do all male technique
of subcontracting your emotional expressions to your wife, sister, or mother.
This is all false, and very weak.
Most men are still trapped in
the Male Mystique, in silent harness for life, making
money and providing.
Most guys never talk as you do. They are less enlightened than you are. Keep up the good
work.
Remember, your counselees are your
part time children..................

Subject: RE: [LA Schools] Takeover Plan Sparks New
Debate
We could
always switch to the private school system: sexes
seperated. Uniforms for all. Much group marching exercising and
singing along. Tests every week. Pushups or laps or parent fines for refusal to
do the work. School should have
practical curriculum interwoven with the academic subjects, mandatory for all
students: cleaning, contracts, bus and plane and train schedule mastery,
cooking,
interacting with politeness, understanding of trivial human physical
differences and basic sameness of functioning
and rights, keeping time commitments, agreements,
deciding consequences for derelict students, disruptive students (they need
more love and attention), and road plan
to propel themselves through the day, and understanding of reality: things
take effort and work. Life is hard.
Some things need to be done hundreds of
times before the technique is mastered, basic facts of our culture: music, art, politics,citizenship, functioning of the elements of government, public service
departments, police, ambulance, hospitals, courts, libraries, colleges,
universities, trade schools, operation of cars, and emergency training for
serious emergencies, such as are outlined in certain books: how to stop blood,
splint a broken bone, CPR, delivering a baby in a car, etc. How to behave in a
public building, mall, street, church or religious building, store, etc.
Exposure to this for say 6 or more years, plus developing rudimentary job
skills, how employment agency or Internet job market works, etc.
should provide
for at least partial education for most of the kids.
Lessons on irrational
cultural norms should also be giving: i.e. men are macho and immune from
requirements for daily living. They must realize that they must learn to
function along, and not be always cared for by women, parents, prison guards,
police, coaches, teachers, etc.

like serenity, knocks softly. Have an interesting day.
