This is the kind of thinking that *USED TO UPSET ME.
You see, many times a wife will get involved with her son
as a Ranger leader, and she will be welcomed to the Outpost.
The son grows and so does her involvement, comitment and
belief in the virtue of the Ranger Code. *Later, it comes
as a unwelcome rebuke to confront man-centered ideals that
are nothing more than backward gender discrimination.
These "policies" can not be found published in the materials
she recieved in training. *Then when she ask's for clarification,
she hears this dribble about.. "That's the way it's allways been"
The shame is that many good Ranger Leaders must up-hold the poision
walls to fellowship, or stand disgraced from the "Brotherhood".
Your personal ethics are not important, in light of what a few
entrenched personalities insist is the "norm". This is not
upholding "policy"... It is domination theology. It is a form
of political control.
