1.) So why is military service the only "sense of duty" that should be a frame-of-reference for young men? And what would be the "sense of duty," if any, that you believe should be instilled in young women?

2.) Valuing procreation between men and women doesn't mean we have to stigmatize people who are childless by choice, in the process.

3.) You'll have to be specific when you refer to "their pocky little selves" -- I'm not clear on what behaviors you're admonishing.

4.) I'll concede I could have done a better job of providing more proactive descriptors, on my end, for broadening the definitions of "masculine" and "feminine." I'm curious what your primary definitions of each would be; and then, as an addendum, how much portability (if any) there should be between respective attributes of members of the male/female sexes versus the gendered descriptors and accompanying behaviors?
