My first voice back after another kick off the board, lol. And it is your welcoming post.

I cannot tell you how awesome your words are.

My 19 yr old son is back visiting. He is really getting close to a young woman going to school. Talking about her and things going on between the two, I was so enthused and excited how verbally expressive he is in his interaction with her.

I said to him... Do you tell Loren that I am the reason he expresses and interacts so well?

Laughingly taking credit for all he is creating. It was a joke.

He laughed and said ... I am at super hero status with Loren.

Feminist allow our boys to define their own masculinity instead of demanding our boys are conditioned by societal definition. I just cannot think how much more healthy our young men are.

An excellent story. I am so glad you shared.

Thank you.
