Men are naturally warriors. Thee was a time when schooling for a boy meant learning to use a bow and arrow, a spear, an axe. Later it was horsemanship, swordsmanship, archery. Then guns and cannon and, well, you know the rest. And then the feminists arrived and in their urge to remove all barriers for themselves, they set about emasculating men. Guns represented violence. Toy guns became verboten. G.I. Joe’s tiny toy guns were enough to get little boys expelled from elementary school. What’s a guy to do these days if he doesn’t want to go to Afghanistan?
In the United Kingdom, he enters the Tough Guy Race in Staffordshire, near the village of Old Perton. The annual race starts in the village with an eight-mile run, before competitors have to wade through energy-sapping mud and plunge into ice-cold water to reach the finishing post. They also have to negotiate flames, smoke bombs and taunting marshals.
The course is so bad that runners are required to sign a disclaimer which reads: “It’s my own bloody fault for being here” just to take part.
The winner was a bricklayer, and though he supposedly speaks English, I couldn’t get a useful word.

And did you notice several of them participating in the race? They have some need to prove to themselves that they can do anything a man can, and if they fail, they will try to have the event shut down as “dangerous”, barbaric or some such. Yes, that’s how feminists operate. In fact, its pretty much how liberalism operates. Equal outcomes for all, and if I can’t have everything you have, then nobody can have it.
