I agree with you, waterboy. I don't really have anything much else to add to your succinct summation of the situation.
I do object to the use of the word "pussified," not because I'm offended (that was for your benefit, sixate
) but because it implies that a more "feminized" (I prefer the term "civilized," but let's meet this stereotype head-on) way of dealing with things is a bad thing.
