Is there people on here who are old enough to remember when a man could take a punch and would physically defend other people's safety?

How did it get replaced by people complaining on the internet about a website hurt their feelings?

You mean when violence was more aceptable than talking? Of course I remember (even because it still exists) and I'm very happy that society is evolving

I see all of you believe what's proper for a man is to be a coward, weak, and run away from words so that men are broken, insecure, and subervient.

You have fun with that when a couple's life is threatened and the man runs away screaming leaving the woman's life in danger.
