I find it very interesting that the article is purely on good, decent, human characteristics that are foundations for a great life that Steve and a whole lot of other people have written about but since I used the word "man" everyone seems a little erked by the article.
Had I taken the word out of it and said people or even used women that the article would have been fine for the whole family. Feminist movement is great but like everything that creates change it swings to an extreme before finding balance. So right now a lot of people are on the extreme and bothered by the word man of what I wrote even though it was teaching people how to have decent values and live by principles instead of love.
It was also greatly assumed that these were only qualities that a man should have instead of seeing the little note I wrote that my website is intended for my mostly male audience. If my website was geared towards women, I would write the same things but use a different word.
