There was a saying coined during the Roman conquests that went something like: Soft soil makes for poor warriors. I have always thought that this meant that given a choice of professions. soldier or farmer, the choice was very much influenced by the environment.
History has a way of repeating and I expect that those on the left– the liberals–the feminists– see the world very much as consisting of ‘soft soil’. In their minds they can reduce all of life’s threats with a tweet or a call for outrage. I expect that the real world will one day will intrude on their fantasy and the call will go out for the saving graces of those who are toxic and masculine.
I really don’t know how we slipped into the girly-man society we have become, perhaps we lost sight of the very real dangers that crowd our shores and lurk in our institutions. When that evil is pounding down the door I suppose we’ll be able to retrieve our balls from the jar the left has asked us to keep them in and save the world once again.
