This was true of the Vikings of Norway in the 12th century, and equally true in China in the 15th century. Realistically, a woman should have at least threeContinue reading “Women Are Sex Objects”

Some of my relations were “mail order brides.” A working man in California chose a woman from a tiny, grainy black and white photograph in a book. She said goodbye to her family for the last time, got on a ship, and met her new husband. I think many women were not all that happyContinue reading “Picking a Girl”

Of all of Britain’s monarchs, by their track record — the success of their countries during their reign — we might have to give the highest honors to Queen Victoria, who reigned from 1837 to 1901. This was a time when British Kings really did have a lot of power, although over time this diminished.Continue reading “The Amazing Queen Victoria”

In the past two weeks or so, there has been a burst of interest in the divide between Leftist females and — although hardly conservative — a lot Less Leftist males.

The 1950s were about the best time, in terms of moral tone, in living memory, but already there had been a long deterioration from the way things were around 1900.

Since I am mining Jim’s Blog for good material — which everyone should do — here are his thoughts from 2019 on Marriage.
