Yup. And my dad, he's an only boy, with three sisters, who married a woman with two sisters, and then had only girls. He taught us how to throw a punch, he taught us not to take shit, and he taught us that we were just as capable as any guy out there. Which we liked up until it extended to not getting out of mowing the lawn or something.
But he also taught us that sometimes, the world sucks. Sometimes being empowered and strong isn't enough. And he also taught us that we'd always be believed, and that if anyone did do anything like that, it was never, EVER our fault.
