There are frats in Canada but I don't think they really do anything

Frat culture is pretty quaint in Australia, if only because regular Australians basically do all of that on their own with slightly less homosexual overtones. (unless they're into that. Though hell, even gaystralians probably don't have that much homosexual overtones)

He’s half-right about the stuffed animals. Rotating them is bullshit and does not solve the jealousy issue. At a certain age, you pick your true favourite and ritually dispose of all the rest. You are then grown and may keep that one remaining toy forever without it being weird or a mark against you.

WampaLord posted:Feel free to enlighten us. Can confirm. I was in the Army from 2000-2004. It's a culture of toxic masculinity 100%, and thrives completely on marginalizing people to view them as being subhuman and therefore easier to kill. It took me a really long time to reconcile the fact that my job was to kill people and assist in the killing of people. I was an idiot kid at the time I enlisted and didn't have any real concept of the value of human life, basically the exact people the military targets and wants because they're impressionable and easy to brainwash. Basic training basically changed the core of who I was as a person, because that's what it's supposed to do. I was fortunate enough that I was never deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan, but both units I was with ended up going to Iraq shortly after I left them. The first was on the initial wave of deployments to Iraq in 2003. At the time I wanted to go, in retrospect I'm incredibly glad that I didn't end up going. A lot of the people I was with are really hosed up by it now. Seeing their comrades (people I knew and spent time with) die, and seeing nearly every civilian as a potential threat/target and killing some of them has really made it difficult for them to function as normal humans, not as kill-bots. Don't join the military.

Fostering sensitivity sounds like a good way to complain 10 years from now about how your daughter learned to be passive from the patriarchy.

That does make me wonder if that attitude is common and part of the reason weapon are (or feel) underrepresented in hobbies and activities is because girls get their interests mocked and derided if not actively stamped out as children when they're not appropriately feminine enough/they reach an arbitrary age where a parent decides they're too old for the things they've taken for granted their entire life.

In my limited experience, you give a kid Barbie dolls and matchbox cars, they may have preferences but chances are they'll play with both depending on what mood strikes them. (though rarely at the same time. Scale issues.)

You're basically a psycho if you tell an eight year old to throw away all of her stuffed toys and then take one and kick it outside to make a point. It probably is borderline emotional abuse, and at the very least makes you the human equivalent of a garbage fire. I'd like to take one of his pristine collector's edition anime figurines and dropkick it into the sun and then make him watch as I put the rest in a trash compactor.

How is a grown man relentlessly making fun of an 8 year old's stuffed animals and punting one of them in the yard to the point that she asks her mom if she's divorcing his sorry rear end not legitimate abuse????

Dad is cookie cutter emotionally abusive and should have never had children. Daughter may get over it eventually or internalize it and deal with mental issues the rest of her life. Next!

I appreciate your point, but abuse doesn't have a settled severity threshold. I'm pretty straightforward, I'd like to call behaviour that I'd call bullying in any other situation a form of abuse when it's between parent/guardian and child, because to me it's an abuse of trust and responsibility. Language is tricky, and most disagreements are just people talking past each other. Some people hear "abusive childhood" and their mind jumps to physical violence, others think sexual, others might be thinking generally verbal/emotional. I don't think there's any need for "no true Scotsman" style gating of what constitutes abuse, and I don't think calling this borderline abusive does anything to water down the concept of abuse. You are free to disagree on that point, but I hope you think doing what that guy did is a hosed up thing to do an eight-year old either way.

I don’t want to cut them off and if really comes down to choosing, I’d probably choose my family.
