In this environment, the man or woman who stands up and declares “I dissent” can be profoundly discomfiting. You are those people. And you are discomfiting precisely because all sides understand that by dissenting you are saying that the prevailing orthodoxy is false, that there is a better path to a happy and fulfilling life. That is a radical stand on most college campuses today. And like all radicals willing to accept the consequences of their principles, you inspire a mix of admiration and fear.

Fathers bring distinctive talents to the parenting enterprise. The work of psychologist Ross Parke, for instance, indicates that fathers are more likely than mothers to engage their children in vigorous physical play (e.g., roughhousing), to challenge their children — including their daughters — to embrace life’s challenges, and to be firm disciplinarians. Not surprisingly, children benefit from being exposed to the distinctive paternal style.

Should assault perpetrators be held responsible for their actions and should we put greater effort into educating about the seriousness of sexual assault? Most definitely. SlutWalk protestors are justified in demanding this. But before they take back the term “slut”, they should ask themselves if they really want to and what messages they send by embracing the name and the messages that come along with it.

So, while Simone de Beauvoir lies in her deathbed with a smile, contemplating tons of news and thousands of laws putting her ideas into practice, some of the children still unborn are already imagining a different culture. Be sure that they will reap new public policies from the seeds sown by the young people of today, who with the force of their reason, are already attracting hearts to participate in a new revolution: the revolution of the faithful, true, responsible love. The revolution of solid love.

We are the authors of our culture, and it is our actions that are going to either perpetuate and accelerate our downward trend into sexual infection, broken relationships, and half-hearted marriages, or start a new movement toward the authentic relationships and lifelong marital love that we want so badly.

the summum bonum of the Love and Fidelity Network: support. It is difficult to over-emphasize the importance of a vital, flourishing community where one can openly express their deepest convictions, especially about matters of love, marriage, and sexual integrity –even personal struggles on the path to virtue. The mere presence of friends similarly convinced of the value of self-respect, the goodness of families and children, and the beauty of a 50th anniversary is sufficient to provide the bedrock on which real change can occur.

…for a few precious hours, we are pulled out of our too-busy-to-make-time-for-important-things life, and spend time with others who are committed to the same ideals we are. And the power of community and shared-vision is endless. The effects are long-lasting and, I am convinced, will change the world with the ideas, thoughts, and momentum they instigate.
