Well said Recluse. I will say though, there's a few places where "metrosexual" doesn't exist. One place is underground. We have an old saying that holds true....leave your feelings in the truck, as they'll get hurt underground.
Don't take much to get a coal miner to fighting underground, then when it's done and over, they go back to watching each others backs.
Kids that aren't made to do some hard sweating labor as a teen, have a tendency to grow into this womanly man we see today.
Sinks Basin area????
VERY well put Mike. GOD, GUNS & FAMILY.....all 3 were a staple in every household many a decade or generations back, now all 3 are slowly fading from sight.
