Dear Ms. Mueller, Thank you for exemplifying why my men's only group exists. Your response is similar to other women who are threatened with the idea that men might actually enjoy each others company and want to engage in activities without having to ask for permission or support from women and that men would want to work towards regaining their status in society.
By the way, my group is one of only three men's only groups that I know of in San Antonio whereas there are over fifteen women only groups i.e.. Chambers of Commerce, Scrape Booking, Bible Study, Retreats, etc. and this was Fiesta week in San Antonio where the Battle of the Flowers Parade was held which is proudly trumpeted as being lead and organized by a women's only group with over 600 members. (How anyone could get 600 women to do anything is a miracle in itself. I can't even get my daughter to clean up her room.) But I digress... There is much more I could impart but I suspect you have the same mindset as other women I've encountered. The kind who doesn't want listen to the facts because you're mind is set and you derive some benefit from it being so. I will submit that the core founding idea of my group is that I'm, and many others, are very concerned about how we are raising our boys. The newer generations of boys think they have less stake in their country because of the way they are being treated. Even though over 64% of college students are women they still receive benefits and support as though they are a downtrodden minority. It is also true that there are more men in their 30s living at home than any other time in our history. My concern is that when the next Hitler surfaces, which is likely because of the ego-centric way we raise our boys, their won't be another Churchill to take up the challenge to defeat him. My fear is that when the next Churchill, if their is one, calls out the Dogs of War they'll all be slouching on their parents couch with no intentions of fighting for a society that has lowered their status and in some cases such as yours mocked them. The bottom line is that more young men die defending their country than any other group combined. If our society continues to raise our boys the way we do and treat them with contempt who will protect us, the Women's Chamber of Commerce? I assume your last comment about The Churchill Centre South Texas was an attempt to be snide and not an attempt to insult me or the fine folks who are members and supporters of our Centre.

He went weak-kneed at the sight of a beautiful or intelligent woman. He cried copiously and was terrifically sentimental. He married a strong, (not to say 'manly') woman and 'lived happily ever-after.' He was masculine without being hateful of anyone ('except Hitler, and that was strictly professional...') and overall is a poor roll-model for your group. His overall positive attitude comes out in all his written works and could deflect your group from its purpose. Although I have not been able to offer you a recommendation, I see that many other Churchillians have stepped up and provided you with assistance. So, carry on, soldier! p.s. Are women allowed in your Churchill Centre South Texas? Carol --- On Mon, 4/20/09, James T. Slattery <[email protected]> wrote: From: James T.

I want to feature a book about Churchill for our meeting in June. The book has to be a moderate length read with action and it has to be available through major book sellers. I will appreciate any recommendations. Thank you, jim James (Jim) T.
