Advice about bullies from Patrick Swayze's mother:

<snip>
Even as a teenager, this firstborn son of a cowboy and a choreographer boasted a rugged grace, excelling both on the football gridiron and at the ballet barre. Like John Travolta, whose mother was also a choreographer, Swayze had swagger and sincerity.

But he wasn’t one for locker-room bragging, which he disdained as “kill-that-guy” talk. Between that and the ballet lessons, he was frequently roughed up by the local bullies for being a sissy. Swayze followed the counsel of his mother, Patsy: “Take your ballet slippers outta your pocket and beat the stuffin’ out of them” — “them” being the bullies.

Rahm or somebody needs to use ballet slippers or something to rhetorically or otherwise beat the stuffin' out of somebody. You can be a gentleman and still make people wish they had never messed with you.

Many *real men* dance or carry purses or otherwise fall outside the norm of those who wish they were men.

Now, you get punched by a bully, and you dont fight back, you still get suspended. Zero tolerance.
