  Depends how vicious the elders are. I know one man who was made to sit at the back of the KH with everyone ignoring him for five years. For all I know he's still there.

  so much is said regarding men , in a negative way.

  shaving commercials are now lecturing us as to how bad we really are.

  men should be less masculine.

  It's just pure coincidence that all the people called out for toxic behaviour are exclusively men.

  No you're forgetting your rant about your wicked step-mother who stole your inheritance LUHE. You got very angry about that toxic woman.

  Yes Cofty, in ancient societies eg ancient Greece looking after small children was the province of women, mothers, aunts and wet nurses. Fathers rarely went near them until it was time to teach boys to handle weapons.

  X, you know a manly man when you see him

  Min, my late husband used to write songs and poetry. He hated sport and loved reading, particularly about science. Is that unmanly to you? It's different things to different people. I really don't know what your definition is, because it's in your own head.

  I'm sure this man's partner found him attractive, she had a baby with him. It's in the eye of the beholder.

  Minimus that is exactly my point. On any other thread, perhaps about is there a god, you would have been asked to immediately define God. But you haven't even defined what a manly man is. He is different things to different people surely!

  This Athena poster, L' Enfant, from the nineteen eighties sold over 8 million copies and the model Adam Perry claimed as a result of it he slept with 3,000 women. Are women attracted to a manly man? Just putting this out there.

  Or tells women that using their feminine charms as a step-mum to persuade a father to leave her a fuck-ton of money that was nothing to do with her and was intended to be kept within the family is totally way out of order.

  Is this who you've been angry with all this time LUHE? Makes sense.

  Then we must remember that jehovah is backing his people and if there is anything to correct jehovah will fix it in his own time

  Same old circular reasoning. So if a government is corrupt we let them fix it because we totally trust them and we don't listen to anything bad about them? Only in religion do we put up with bad conduct in administrators.

  After our last convention we had a surplus of $11,663.95 so in accord of the equalizing of blah blah blah, we have forwarded the sum of $10,708.45 to the world wide work and the branch sent us a lovely letter thanking us for the contribution"

  Wake up Australia! Indeed!
