By way of explanation, the Superficial Comment of the Day first came into being during the fall of 2007. My friends and I were talking, and I decided to share a thought about relationships, something superficial, because it feels good to sometimes recognize our superficiality instead of always trying to pretend it doesn't exist. We are hardly such noble creatures. Not yet, anyway. So I shared my comment with them, and the Superficial Comment of the Day then became a semi-regular staple of our conversation.
This brings us to the present.
So there was an impromptu dance party this evening. The Great Pumpkin, Promethus Rex, and I were dancing and having fun, but unfortunately, the number of femininas participating in the dance party was quite slim. Later, the number of dancers began to dwindle and things began to look like they were wrapping up. Suddenly a group of people, led principally by a quartet of girls, stormed the dance floor and demanded that the partaaaaaay continue. So it did. But with those girls came another group of guys, guys that had been playing games with those girls earlier that evening. Those fellows seemed to think that a dance party consists of yelling and cheering, more so than actually dancing to the tunes.
Anyway, that was a long set-up. What I determined through my careful observation of the situation was that we, the men of Chivalry in the Wind, are cooler than those other guys. We definitely have better dance moves, but what bothers me, on the most superficial of levels imaginable, is that while we would appear to be cooler dudes, they are better integrated with the femininas in the area. O injustice of injustices! The beard within my soul quakes with the terrible travesty of this situation.
The rational part of my brain is telling me that the very fact that they are more integrated with the feminine members of our community shows who really is cooler---but superficiality isn't rationality, and I still think that we should appear like the cooler and more desirable masculinos (my new word) on the block.
On the eve of Civil Rights Day, I want to share with the world my dream. I have a dream that someday I will live in a world where bearded masculinos will be truly appreciated and pampered by dancing femininas. Oh yes, I have a dream.

Feminazis
Let us now consider the role that feminism has played is destroying the persona of the man and why all women are to blame - not just the crazy activists.
Since the beginning of the 19th century and the industrial revolution women began to play a greater role in the work force and society as a whole. While the liberation of women from domestic tyranny is not disputed nor is if refuted here that the archaic notion of the inferiority of women was held for ages of earth's history, what is to be said is that is has been done incorrectly and, therefore, to the detriment of society as a whole.
What I speak of is simply this - that by placing blame on men in general for any sexist oppression since the dawn of time is a generalization that has weakened the role of good husbands and fathers. Now, the feminazis would like all men to bow in humility and subservience because of "their great oppression". May I remind the reader the reader that not all white people in America were racist - in fact if it weren't for white folk slavery might have continued to this day (*gasp*). Likewise, (may I emphasize the last comment as a parallel example) women's rights were largely the product of good men (once again, *gasp*). However, like many activist groups, the feminists cannot simply let a dead dog lie. Its largely over people - except for some hicks down in the swamps of the deep south, I think that people understand that we're all equal.
That was an interesting tangent, a true point, but a departure nonetheless. Women everywhere are to blame for the loss of common courtesy once offered by men, nay gentlemen. If women want doors held open and other such things once so common I say speak out! If the feminazis are the minority, which there are, then simply reverse the tide of their media-spawned takeover of society and, more importantly, the traditional family. By not speaking out against the loss of a mannerly, polite society you have contributed to its demise.
Chivalry in the Wind. Ground to dust are our roots of honor cultivated for hundreds of years.
And what will replace it?
