The Sissification of the Next Generation


sissyboy

If you have kids that are under the age of 25, generations Y and Z, chances are you have seen and even participated in the sissification of these kids.

Sissification, from the word sissy, meaning to make someone a sissy, to teach someone to be weak, timid and effeminate.

There are so many layers to this weakening of our social and cultural backbone that it truly should be covered in a series of articles, but I had a couple of specific conversations this weekend that go right to the rotten core of this issue.

A common sissification method is allow the boundaries between male and female dress and play to be blurred to the point of homogenization. Little boys with painted fingernails, carrying purses and baby dolls are things that our grandfathers would have killed for. Just imagine how pathetic these kids look to those who hate us. "Look Haji, Americans are perverse and disgusting. They even teach their boys to be girls."

One of the most irritating is the Sanitization of Language. Yes we all know that its impolite to use curse words in front of small children. (I guess we all know this, I have to admit I don't see the problem.) However the mothers and fathers of the gen y and gen z have taken it upon themselves to add on to George Carlin's list. Words like, "stupid" and "butt" and "ugly" and "shut up" are now BAD WORDS!

Can you believe it? Suddenly now if a kid has a mosquito bit on his arse he has to say "bottom" or "bum" because BUTT is now offensive.

Give Me A Break!

And Stupid? Since when is it impolite to say that the guy who ran across the street without looking at oncoming traffic is stupid. What else is he? Let me guess, Silly?

The word is Stupid. Stupid, Stupid STUPID!

Better yet, you can't say "shut up" either. So what are you supposed to say to the kid on the playground that is calling your mother a mini-van driving whore, "please be quiet"? Give me a another break. I get it that we don't want our kids to tell their parents to shut up, but how can a kid show any kind of backbone telling someone to be quiet?

They can't and there in lies the problem.

By teaching kids that everything that needs to fair, and to share, and to only use nice words and not to rough-house and to shrink like a violet to authority we are turning them into the Generation of Sissies.

Sissifying parents, do you really think that all the other kids are playing by your rules? They're not, and all you are doing is widening the gap between the bullies and the bullied.

Am I advocating teaching kids to cuss like sailors and kick the littlest kid in the head for his lunch money? Of course not, but I cannot stand this mentality that somehow the world has changed and there no longer are winners or losers.

Lets jump to the future for a second, all these nail painted boys that couldn't tell little Johnny to shut up will be cutting themselves and wearing all black, blowing up high schools and shooting heroine because they just can't tell the crack dealers no. By teaching them that everyone must be nice and getting along when they are little, we set them up for failure when they get to be teenagers and realize the real world is not so nice. Its almost cruel.

The world is a harsh place and no we don't need it to be harsher, but turning your kid into a whimpering sissy only makes it worse. The world is lead by people with strong wills and strong hands. I hate to tell you pre-K soccer moms, the world is full of winners and they're going to sweep the floors with your passive little thumbsuckers.
