There's much to think through in what you've said. You're pushing me to reflect on my on writing, on my speaking. While I have a fairly strong sensor for what I want to say or keep, I don't have as good a command on language around those things when it comes to blogging. I will certainly give some thought to this, to the reasons why I protect some memories and why I share others. I think being able to say those things is a part of telling stories. Thanks for blogging this.Michaelhttp://forfathers.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23363296.post-5234651704033961052011-08-06T09:37:03.618-07:002011-08-06T09:37:03.618-07:00Bravo!

All of which you espouse.<br /><br />I'm reminded of a story from ancient Greece, wherein an actress was hectored to strip. The play was too boring, they claimed—catcalls like that were common at the time.<br /><br />She refused. Stating that they paid for her to act not strip.<br /><br />Same with bloggers, the groundlings demand prurience. We don't have to give that to them.PV Lundqvisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04144485318046805732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23363296.post-39632573442319187412011-08-06T06:01:00.716-07:002011-08-06T06:01:00.716-07:00This line had me laughing: Many journalistic emplo...This line had me laughing: Many journalistic employers simply don’t take family issues seriously—I don’t seem “serious” to them since I write about “soft” things like male caregiving. I should be covering wars, business, technology. Man things.<br /><br />My husband and I have a great marriage. We spend our leisure time separately. We have separate friends. Frequently, I question whether we're OK, whether our practice of individual pursuits is OK. Are we going to be OK or will be grow apart? I appreciated your brief mention on that topic.Rambling Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10367652954139839430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23363296.post-51935115786550219882011-08-05T13:19:10.682-07:002011-08-05T13:19:10.682-07:00Thank you for the thoughtful honesty and integrity...Thank you for the thoughtful honesty and integrity of this piece.

It's the voice of Jeremy from the first few years of Daddy Dialectic. And it's the reason I stick with this blog and it's larger project - because I trust that you will cut through the bullshit with the scalpel of reason and arrive at a position that is humane and pragmatic and not hostage to anyone's absolutist hissy-fits.chicago pophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17055796523227869734noreply@blogger.com
