NormanConquestNatural Responces
I have said for many years that our natural responses are ingrained in our heredity. I know that as a child I had an affinity for weapons + so did (almost) every other boy while the girls had a thing for dolls. Human nature. This was brought back to light when I was rereading an old George Macdonald Fraser book + he was reminiscing about his grandkids running across the yard. The 2 boys waving their cap pistols + screaming like a red Indian while their sister was gathering up the dolls + wailing "We MUST save the babys!"

SaeedIf your children are caught like this today you will be locked up.
And they will be taken away from you!

NormanConquestJust one more objection to this P.C. era!

NormanConquestPolitical correctness, whatever form it takes, almost always involves a denial of truth, or at best a refusal to recognize it: it may be a lie outright, or a dishonest, even cowardly, reluctance to face reality. In both cases, it would have been anathema fifty years ago- or more probably submerged in gales of scornful laughter. or political correctness would be a real hoot if it were not undermining the concept of truth as we have always understood it-until now when the truth is acceptable only if it suits the prejudices + false doctrines of the powerful + unscrupulous P.C. lobby.
