AND REALTIVE TO SAMMYS CHILDREN... TO BEGIN WITH I DON'T CARE FOR THAT HAS NUTTEN TO DO WITH HIM BEING CAPTAIN.
ON ABILITY AS CAPTAIN AND PLAYER I WOULD NOT HAVE PIK HIM..AN I WOULD DROP HIM NOW
now if Sammy, a man of money decides to carry his five women and children as 1 family, caring for all of them, making sure all the children get opportunity and somewhere in life etc... that is called polygamy...a legit human social institution.
that christianity casts aspersions at polygamy does not make it any less legit. same way with its opposite polyandry.
and if Sammy carries all his women and children in whatever way he can..that is just as fine as I see it
in early life the first family was the woman with the children. fatherhood as we know it was unheard of prior to some 15 thousand years ago...which means that of human social artifacts fatherhood is one of the newest.
what ketchim is talking about here is the still on-going fight by men to legitimise the fatherhood..to make the fatherhood necessary when it never was, and it is still not likely essential. it may be necessary in society for a man and society to know his children so he can participate in financing their upbringing etc. and otherwise
it may be crucial for society to work out ways relevant to modern society to ensure woman have all that is needed to carry out their lives including the socially vital job of having children. but nowhere in there exists an essential need for a father as we know fatherhood.
and here is a crucial factoid for countries like canada, the usa, russia etc. the 'traditional family with the professional father and mother has contributed to falling rates of population in all those countries. indigenous rates are highest among single mothers. were it not for them the population loss of all those countries would be serious indeed..disastrous.
sure we shud be tired of analysis...but of the limited nonsense that passes for analysis...we have a huge reality to deal with that is in crisis, that is interdependent, no part separate form the other, no part that can be critiqued in isolation from the totality.
