Musket the men you are railing at have lived through a time when the views that you find repugnant was actually the law of the land, a time when wearing a wristwatch; sitting with your legs crossed or wearing a wristwatch in public, or wearing suede shoes was regarded by the majority as borderline effeminate.

as a northerner - you understand this - don't pretend you don't. so you know how they came to hold these views - so stop being so bloody judgemental. some people reject their parents values - some people don't get the breaks and they don't.

now behave yourself! nice manners please!
