Will replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"The easiest and nicest way is to hear the opinions and not discuss them. Not to justify, argue, or convince, but put up a wall of "nice."
Agree when you can, always be polite, and never explain. Never bring it up. Use phrases…"
Native Son replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"BINGO!
The most Mom or anybody else needs to know, is if you're heading to a lodge meeting.
Sounds like someone has her information about the Freemasons from the Simpsons "Stonecutters" episode."
Erg replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"The beauty of a secret society is that it is secret, right? Mom doesn't need to be involved in this. Don't lie about it, but don't talk about it.

Michael D. Denny replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"Tell her that:

2.…"
Rebekah replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"There's no way around the career issues. Women's clubs and sororities are not equivalent to men's, and you should drop that argument.
State one more time the reasons you want to join, then refuse to discuss it further."
Carl Monster replied to Liam R.'s discussion A Fraternal Dilemna"Read Brett's article on telling your mother to basically shove it. It ain't easy, but it is something every man needs to do at one point in his life."

Here is the situation, gentleman and ladies: Tonight, I am being initiated as a DeMolay (a junior Freemason). Up until today, my mother has been supportive of my desire to join this fraternity, but has suddenly begun to accuse me of being sexist for wanting to join. When I pointed out that there are many sororities that I could not join if I wished to, she then stated that no sorority can match the networking that takes place amongst Freemasons, and restated that I am sexist for…See More

Liam R. replied to Justin Cook's discussion Please do a article on how the art of war can help everyday men."I personally feel that the interpretation of the messages by the individual is an integral part to the enjoyment of the book. However, I would very much enjoy an article about the historical influence of application of The Art of War."

Vytautas replied to Vytautas's discussion Favorite Author in the group Latin"Ah but it's a damn good poem! But no wonder it was never translated until the late 1900s. Nearly 20 centuries of censorship!
But despite some prudishness, it's very important for discussing the relationship between poet, persona, and…"
