RE: "As He Demurs" (poem/article) >>> Toxic Masculinity ... or Ideological Hyperbole?

in #poetry7 years ago

@blockurator,

Said like a warrior-poet.

...before you verbally punch them.

Mais non, mon Capitaine. Jamais.

I am the last of the Romantics and have great reverence for the fairer sex. My beef isn't with women. My beef is with ideologues, irrespective of the package in which they come. Biology creates realities that people don't like, but realities are just that ... real.

You got a taste of what happens when rhetoric overcomes reason. Words are extremely powerful things. They can inspire to greatness, and wickedness, in equal measure. People ought to yield them carefully. I call out those that do not.

Amen, brother. I say in jest. In jest. :-)

@blockurator,

Admit it ... you were just out fishing for the Mon Capitaine thing, weren't you? Bloody officers.

Quill :-)

You know us officers. Always fishing. :-)
