The world does experience change which is inevitable in the process of evolution and we are able to witness that today. Could this possibly be that gradual paradigm shift towards a world where masculinity will no longer be an important factor in our society and the emphasis will be directed more towards freedom of expression? We already see how folks are encouraged to be who and what they feel they are (gender wise) and how television and other groups are promoting more of same sex relationships, transgender, binary and etc. We see a multitude of same sex relationships adopting children just as well as singles which deviates so far away from the traditional family unit structure and marriages. We also see the absence of a male presence in a great number of relationships which can and has been detrimental to the stability and balance of the family unit and leave room for feminine influences.
My intuition tells me that the world is being primed for a dramatic shift away from old traditions, principles, values and headed towards a new era in this realm. What do you think???

I think that if a person consumes the proper amount of protein, and enough calories every day as well as B vitamins that it can lead to a very stable mental state that will allow a person to make good decisions maybe even in teenagers. Proper nutrition and mental stability goes hand in hand.
