1. and the boys..yes BOYS....got to sit thru a mind numbing

2 hour display of utter madness.....

The stink of trump will always be on that team.

[niyad]

2. "boys"??? As I understand from earlier posts, several of the team are

late 20's to early 40's. Why "boys"? Boors, maybe.

[Clouds Passing]

10. These types of males are not men. Man-childs for sure.

[MontanaMama]

15. Indeed. These aren't kids.

They’re grown ass men. Professional hockey players. Honestly, poster boys for submissives too.

[AZ8theist]

24. "Boys" is just a colloquial term used by hockey players when talking about themselves.

Listening to mic'd up players during games, you'll hear it quite often as in "C'mon, boys, let's go!" or other phrases encouraging better play.

Yes, these are adult men. Whether men or boys, nothing excuses the bad behaviour.

[niyad]

26. What they call each other is not the point here. How they are presented

outside the rink is. As is the reason for the way they are presented.

30. And a half

[Mossfern]

4. I believe that it was in reference

to their emotional maturity age rather than their chronological age.

[Joinfortmill]

5. Agree.

[niyad]

7. While that may be true, the problem lies in the framing. Men are called

"boys" in many areas to excuse horrible behaviour, often sexual. We have all seen it. "boys will be boys". . One glaring example that I noticed years ago was about the murdering menendez brothers, referred to frequently as "boys", when they were, in fact, adults.

8. Boys at forty

Women at 12

[niyad]

9. EXACTLY!!!

[UpInArms]

12. Unless they are women

(as in the Womens team … then they are

GIRLS

[niyad]

13. EXACTLY!!!

[Farmer-Rick]

16. As my current coffee cup says

Behind every successful woman is a man.....who is totally surprised.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

14. 6 words that sum it up. nt

[Hope22]

17. 12 is generous with this crowd..

Single digits not unheard of.

[moonbeam23]

18. That was

brilliantly put!!

[BidenRocks]

23. Like referring to Chump's grown (sons?)

Uday and Qusay as kids or diminutive young references.
None are kids. They are all grown and responsible for their actions.
They make it sound as if they would get sent to Juvey if arrested.
They all need to experience the REAL world!

[niyad]

25. EXACTLY!!! I believe coke jr is in his 40's. gums is only a few years younger.

[wendyb-NC]

6. Yes

[MerrilyMerrily]

19. Thanks for the link

The discussion of the subject there was interesting.

[orangecrush]

21. Most welcome

[Martin68]

20. The men...not so much.

[OneGrassRoot]

22. Isn't this a joke?

TDS posted after SOTU. I think it's a joke but I see people on various platforms trying to decipher what they mean. lolol

[Ping Tung]

27. Eternal boyhood is the dream of a depressing percentage of American males

Eternal boyhood is the dream of a depressing percentage of American males, and the locker room is the temple where they worship arrested development
