Sissies and pansies are not even terms that directly imply homosexuality. By inferring that weakness, frailty and lack of manly vigor are traits of the homosexual, it is you who are insulting them.

If a father's love for a son is so tied to his being the stereotypical "strong manly man" and if TR would "rather have one of them die then to have them grow up weaklings", then tell your father to go to hell and form your life the way you want it to be, not want someone else wants just so you can earn their love and respect, father or not. The virtues espoused on this site need to be moderated and not taken overly literally - hopefully, we've evolved more than some comments here would suggest. Want to be a true badass?

More fellas need to ManUp and raise their sons. Too many guys are letting the women-folk raise our boys. Try though they might, women-folk are simply not equipped to make a man. It's hard to raise a manly kid when the "man" who helped conceived him isn't doing the heavy lifting-. I blame the dads! More fellas need to ManUp and raise their sons.

He once gave a speech after an assassination attempt, with the bullet still in him. Brass bal*s. God, I'd vote for him in a heartbeat if he ran today. Could you IMAGINE how he'd SHRED today's dungheap journalists with their 'gotch'a' methodology? I can see him now challenging one of them to 3 rounds in a boxing ring if the smartass asked some silly-ass question, or maybe just walk into the clown's office and punch him out. If you wanted a DEBATE with TR, whoa you'd get a debate. No opinion polls for this man, ask a question, get an answer. yeah... :) TR was a self-made badass.
