True Grit at Ground Zero

This photograph appeared in today’s UK Daily Mail and was taken at the One World Trade Center construction site in New York City.  Since our culture has set aside no calendar month to honor the stunning accomplishments and sacrifices of our belittled, besmirched, and bemoaned male of the species, I thought it only fitting to cap off Women’s History Month with a little contextual reality.

And what better way to display the talents, courage, skills, and tenacity of our ordinary men folk then to show them doing what they have always done best: building and rebuilding Western civilization, one girder at a time.

Let’s Hear it for the Men!
