Fighting Back (For Masculinity)!

"Blaine, look at me." He raised his tearful eyes slowly, reluntantly. There was shame written all over his face.

"I want you to listen very closely to what I am about to say. The next time that bully pushes you down, here is what I want you to do - are you listening, Blaine?"

He nodded, his big wet eyes fixed on mine.

"I want you to get up... and I want you to HIT him... as HARD as you possibly can."

A look of embarrassed delight came over Blaine's face. Then he smiled.

- From the book "Wild At Heart". (I really wanted to pick up a fight after reading that.)
