After reading Mike T's post on why women should handle the worlds money, from Stuff.co.nz, I fell on an article in the back of today's news on this site.
Ain't men awesome!! Ya don't see the feminists cheering while were running around burning buildings and rubble, saving their kids and cats.

Rescuer to meet girl

Christchurch earthquake


Six more Christchurch earthquake victims named bro'Town to aid Christchurch Christchurch's eastern suburbs 'mobilising' after earthquake Fault lines 'no reason for panic' Earthquake warning system may save lives Eerie silence fills the heart of Christchurch Chch still the top priority for RWC Super rugby, super crowd Joy and pain at Crusaders game Ruby seeks a place to wed
A young girl pulled from the rubble in Christchurch's Cashel Mall is believed to have survived and one of her rescuers hopes to be reunited with her.
Last week the Sunday Star-Times published the story of a dentist who, along with many others, waded in to help the injured.
He was one of eight men who tried to save a young girl and her mother, who lay crushed under a huge slab of masonry. They couldn't lift the slab so used planks of wood and rocks to lever it up and drag the pair out.
The mother died in the mall but the dentist believed he had detected a faint pulse in the girl, thought to be about six years old.
She was picked up by another man who sprinted to hospital carrying her in his arms.
This past week the Star-Times learned the man is a medic called Mike. He did not want his surname disclosed.
He knew the girl needed help quickly and ran with her to the hospital because waiting for an ambulance would take too long.
"We almost got run over on Montreal St by a guy in an SUV who just looked stunned. I gave him a bit of a filthy look, I think," he said.
He stopped a couple of times to elevate the girl and check her breathing. A doctor was stationed at the entrance to the hospital and helped Mike take the girl straight into an emergency unit room.
"She was the first serious patient to arrive there," he said.
Mike returned to the city centre and has been working there until yesterday when St John sent him to Hanmer Springs for a break.
"People did stuff that day that normally they shouldn't be able to do – like lifting stuff that was 120kg or 130kg. It was unreal," he said.
Only a few days ago he heard for sure the girl had survived.
"I have closure now but it's been hard. The first couple of days were pretty rough." He hopes to meet the girl and may attend her mother's funeral. He also plans to contact the dentist.

It's such a pity feminists never look at these good men when they're going about generalizing us all under one brush. The only ones they consider as 'good guys' are the ones who join in their bashing of men & giving us all the same brush strokes by talking about only bad guys.

It must be so truly sad to only be able to speak poorly of half the planet's population.
