Oh, I so enjoyed reading that, Notso. I already liked Robert Webb - I like him even more now smile

What a brilliant and insightful article. smile If only there were more men like him, bringing up their sons with this attitude how much more optimistic we could be for our DGDs and all our DGC's generation.

Nice to hear from a man who actually "gets it", thanks notso

Gosh - that's bit of a one-off! Well done him.

I was really impressed with the article too. Pity it wasn't in all the papers!

Yes, I really liked the article too but then I went on to read the misogynous comments which followed it. So depressing. It would appear that Robert Webb is a man in a million.

Just read it. A light but insightful piece. Shame about some of the comments that followed!
