Admirable. The last part, I mean. And mean sarcastically.USMC. Combat Engineer. Two combat deployments, plus another to Kuwait. Never had any grandeur beliefs of fighting for democracy and only did so because I was bored.
As for the first part of what I quoted, your comments and perspectives here dishonor the USMC.
And as for the rest of your response, I guess I appreciate that you bothered to, but there is nothing there of value or merit to bother with, though it did get me thinking.
One of the most most traditional men I know also did a few combat tours (Iraq). He killed a lot of people and saw horrific things, up close and personal. He's volatile, naturally alpha, combative, and one of the smarter people I've ever known.
He has some ideas about women (and life in general) that diverge from mine. He is fairly loose talking to me candidly about views he knows I might not share, bc we have a mutual respect.
I have no doubt that he is honorable and decent, and I also know that he would never say or think the shit you say or think you know about women, or the opinions you voice of them. He'd probably enjoy beating the shit out of you, tbqh.
This reference point reminds me that just as the military can turn so many boys into men and give them honor and quality (though it sometimes fails because of its own dysfunction), there are those it can't reach. Those people go in as shit, stay shit, and come out as shit. If you are the person irl that you are here, then I'm talking about you.
78.6% (2594 of 3299 total) of murders of white people in 2019, the latest year for which FBI statistics have been made available on their site, were committed by white people.Probably a plurality, but statistically underrepresented.
Of all murders of white people, men were the offender 88.3% (3915 of 3299 total) of the time.

Statistically, white men comprise +/- 30% of the population. White people in general are +/- 60%, roughly wound back a couple of years to align with the fbi data above.
