"Then he’d rebel. If the official high school culture was über-nurturing, he’d be über-crude.If it valued cooperation and sensitivity, he’d devote his mental energies to violent video games and aggressive music.”(Brooks 5)
“The information age rewards people who mature early, who are verbally and socially sophisticated, who can control their impulses. Girls may, on average, do better at these things.” (Brooks 11)

My father, walked a daily nightmare so that I may live out my dreams”
“You did not ask me to spell deadbeat sir..

F-a-t-h-e-r, d-a-d-d-y, p-o-p, p-o-p-s, if you want the slang”
“I want a wife to keep track of the children’s doctor and dentist appointments. And to keep track of mine, too. I want a wife to make sure my children eat properly and are kept clean.

"“I want a wife who will keep my house clean. A wife who will pick up after my children, a wife who will pick up after me. I want a wife who will keep my clothes clean, ironed, mended, replaced when need be, and who will see to it that my personal things are kept in their proper place so that I can find what I need the minute I need it.”
“If, by chance, I find another person more suitable as a wife than the wife I already have, I want the liberty to replace my present wife with another one. Naturally, I will expect a fresh new life; my wife will take the children and be solely responsible for them so that I am left free.“

Sports

“ they talked casually but passionately about sports, basketball especially, with the deep resonance that reverberates in my hungry ears. Many spoke a spicy black lingo, the hip linguistics that even white kids from Iowa crave.”
“the barbers and many customers assume that Eric is gay.” As a result, unlike other regulars who become key players in the discourse community, Mills writes that Eric “is silenced as an agenda setter... When [he] would initiate conversations, the men would turn away, ignore him, or patronize him for a short while only to move quickly to other topics.” Instead of engaging Eric, they would “act annoyed by his mannerisms and voice.”
