Ever hear the phrase "curses like a drunken sailor"? Sailors spent lots of time on ships away from society and being all guys, their social skills were soon forgotten. That is the historical perspective. I use that phrase quite frequently when hearing women who use rough talk so that men will accept them as equals. But my view of women is someone's mother or sister and I don't think a child deserves to have a mother who can't teach virtue by example. The new politically correct answer today is to say I am stereotyping because that tries to introduce a strawman that not all sailors curse. But the saying is based on historical truth and was accurate. I wasn't trying to put sailors down as a whole but using what is known as an idiom. It is something that was common in a period of time and is used to make a point. People today don't like to refute a point being made so they try to switch the topic. My point wasn't about sailors, drinking or cursing but women who don't respect themselves enough to remain on the pedestal God put them on and just want to be a regular "guy". I learned about women from my mother and she would not allow us saying "farmer dirtied in the coffee pot" in her house. She raised the bar for me and I am glad she did. I have never regretted it.

God bless you,
