A friend's post on FB

Did you notice, the Tiki-Torch Nazis were all guys? No women within 50 feet of them, except the ones standing against them? I don't think that necessarily means they are gay; I think it means they have had no exposure to the civilizing perceptions of womanhood, and probably because they are too doltish to have earned the opportunity.

Plus, girls are scary.

in case it's necessary.

you don't have a lot of IRL women to support you. And you don't learn how to act in society.

and this is how nazi treated women. They did not want them involved at all. They were to stay home and have babies and earned the Mutterehrenkreuz, The German Mother's Cross. There were different levels of honor depending on how many children the women produced for the Reich. Just do a quick study on how the Nazi Party viewed women and you will see why there weren't many there.

They're very specific about their masculinity and using the pronoun "men" instead of "people". i think the Nazis liked segregating their groups by gender.

I get the idea that they wouldn't even have wanted "their women" there...the ones who have wives or girlfriends who would remain with them after witnessing them carrying Home Depot Tiki Torches at a Deutsches Jungfolk rally, at least.

This applies to all countries, societies, religions, civilizations, etc. 90% of the time there is violence it is committed by a man. This is due to testosterone and they do not control it, it controls them. Throw in some hate and alcohol and a male peer group...then head for the hills as fast as you can since the outcome will not be good. My dad told me this. He called it testosterone poisoning.
