My brother was totally NOT a butt hole.
Neither is my husband.
Ma'am; None of us is beyond reclamation, exactly... When a daughter has no brothers, and grows up knowing her father and having only him as an example of the way men should behave she has a really false example since by the time a male gets to be a father he already has the greater part of his rough edges rubbed off of him...
Boys being boys, lazy, lying, patience trying, farting and disrespecting animals give a girl a better idea of what men in general are... Unreasonable expectations of boys, but of life in general, is a great cause of unhappiness... I am very often depressed, and yet generally conceive of myself as happy because I expect so little of life... Life can be great, and has been for me at times... For all of us, life can run the continuum from beautiful to terrible and back again... To think life is supposed to be a single thing, especially some great thing when in fact, it is all things to all people is a guarantee of misery.... Expect the worst, and you will enjoy anything better... I have seen the worst, but even I know my worst was bearable... For many, the worst they encounter is in no sense bearable, and our help is needed.
