Representative Bernie Satrom Says Women Should Spend Sundays Making Husbands Breakfast In Bed

Two North Dakota Representatives have some pretty outdated ideas for how women should be spending their Sunday mornings.

G.A.A.O.I.

Mankind has always been searching for understanding. From animism to string theory, everyone seems to be disagreeing on what is real. In fact, there really haven't been too many new monotheistic religions catching on anymore. Everyone seems to be clinging to the big three monotheistics: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Sure, there are new sects, but that doesn't really count. Back to my point, it seems like people seem to have outgrown the idea that there's this big guy in the sky and he made everything. "But we have proof! Look at this book. It explains everything!" Sure. Great. But that doesn't count as proof. "Well look at the world around us, isn't that proof?" Just because we exist doesn't mean that the universe was created for us. We are so infinitely small, it seems ridiculous to think that this whole big place was made just for us. Kind of cocky if you ask me. Anyway, the concept of a God in the first place seems to be outdated. Many Christians look at Greek Mythology and think, "Wow, that's super interesting. But at least I know what I believe in is true." I think in a few thousand years people will be looking back at them and saying the same thing.

Who Are You Calling a Mama's Boy?

"A study published in Child Development involving almost 6,000 children, age 12 and younger, found that boys who were insecurely attached to their mothers acted more aggressive and hostile later in childhood—kicking and hitting others, yelling, disobeying adults and being generally destructive.

A study of more than 400 middle school boys revealed that sons who were close to their mothers were less likely to define masculinity as being physically tough, stoic and self-reliant. They not only remained more emotionally open, forming stronger friendships, but they also were less depressed and anxious than their more macho classmates. And they were getting better grades.

There is evidence that a strong mother-son bond prevents delinquency in adolescence. And though it has been long established that teenagers who have good communication with their parents are more likely to resist negative peer pressure, new research shows that it is a boy's mother who is the most influential when it comes to risky behavior, not only with alcohol and drugs but also in preventing both early and unprotected sex.

Finally, there are no reputable scientific studies suggesting that a boy's sexual orientation can be altered by his mother, no matter how much she loves him."
