“As a result their attempts at helping direct their daughter tend to be analogous to a chimp waving flags trying to communicate with an aircraft carrier below the horizon.”

A very funny, and highly accurate image. Ouch! This is true also for the few men with daughters that I’ve discussed this with. They haven’t a clue and eventually back off, leaving communication to the mum.

"the female is always more terrible in war than the male!" Many years ago, I read an article by some very well-known, famous, female anthroplogist insisting that women must never be allowed to become soldiers, and she gave the above reason, in considerable detail, as to why. I was somewhat surprised that it came from such as her, but had to agree with her. Good on ya for posting this. God bless.
