#1 My parents' generation held values of modesty and sportsmanship......(I don't really want to mention Donald Trump in this post, but the connection is too obvious. Who are we? Who are we? How did we get here?)

I don't really want to mention the Clinton Foundation, but I believe the term you are looking for is secularism.

#3 Harambe style chest beating aside, the age of the dominant (white) male is past. Oh and yes, mind the bathroom signs.

The fundamental conflict in men between holding onto and ceding control is playing out in families, companies, schools, governments and global conflicts. It will continue to play out for the rest of the century, although the balance of power has already swung toward women and the future has already been written in genetic code. This reality is everywhere we look. As all-female organizations, clubs and professional groups gain popularity and relevance (I'm even the founder of one), all-male clubs are all but obsolete and those remaining few are populated by men with canes, walkers and oxygen tubes.
