As stated by Johnny Cash to Rodney Crowell when Roseanne brought him home Thanksgiving to meet her parents
When my daughter was 16, she brought her first serious boyfriend home to meet us. I invited the boy over at a later date to help me with some chores around the farm. We were castrating some calves.
By the look on his face, I think he got the message.
Ignorance is a long way from stupid, but left unchecked, can get there real fast.
I never paid much mind to any of my girlfriends' fathers. The only one I've ever really gave a **** about is my current girlfriend's father because we have a lot in common and I work in the same building as him.
I would invite him out for a ride and take him the woods give him a shovel and tell him to start digging! And explain to him it's his grave if he hurts her!

I don't have a daughter but I'll tell any boy in my house to pull his pants up. If the pants will not stay up then he will leave not to return without a proper belt.

Oh, I'm nicer than that! I would offer to help him keep 'em up - with my staplegun.
Actually, by God's grace (and I mean that), my daughter is highly discriminating. If one makes it onto HER list, I'm quite likely to find him to be a fine fellow. And she's asked me not to get all 'bristly-bearded' with the poor kid, so I'll probably behave myself.
But we do have a fair amount of acreage out back...

This may sound a bit pedantic given the humorous tone of this thread, but as a father of two daughters (now in their 20's) I'll say this. Raise your daughters to have a positive and strong self-image. Teach them what is right and wrong. Help them through their teenage years to avoid the negative peer pressure that is so pervasive these days (easier said than done I know). Teach them to be independent and think for themselves (even if what they think isn't what you'd prefer). Treat your wife, or women in your life, the way you want boys to treat your daughters, they learn a lot by that example and it establishes what a good relationship is. Girls with self-confidence and a positive image of men/women relationships will chose boyfriends that treat them with respect and reject those who do not.

Geez, I always thought I was lucky that we only have boys (4 of them, plus my husband, I'm greatly outnumbered). None of them are dating age yet, but I'm worried about all you fathers of girls. My 14-year old step-son would break out in tears and pee his pants, and my 13-year old would either pass out or shake so hard he couldn't turn the knob to leave your house (I know, I have a couple of "sensitive" boys). My youngest boys (and the hope for our future, lol) would offer to load your magazines and haul your ammo cans, all while saying "Yes, sir" and "Anything else, sir?". I'd never see those two again, you'd keep them for yourselves, lol!
My daughter is precious to me and the first time her date comes to pick her up for a evening out, 1. He better knock at my door like a gentlemen
2. He better address me as SIR
3. He is going to let me tape measure him from head to toe. You can figure out the rest
4. He is not going to be wearing ear rings in his nose or be dressed like a slob.
My daughter is not old enough to date at the present moment and I told her even when she is thirty it's not an option. In the mean time, I am going to add to the above list and by time she is old enough to date and I have added a few more requirements, whom ever wants to date her will be scared away...
