Here’s a question: How long before we all start banging each other with headsets on?
Of Myth and Men: 'What happened to man-up & grow some b*lls?' continued
“We are living at an important and fruitful moment now, for it is clear to men that the images of adult manhood given by popular culture are worn out; a man can no longer depend on them.” “The grief in men has been increasing steadily . . . and [it] has reached a depth now that cannot be ignored.”
What happened to 'man-up' & 'grow some b*lls?'
I’ve had countless requests to write about this topic so let’s hope I can do it justice . . . Why are we so obsessed with making everyone the same? Too masculine? F*ck you, you’re toxic. Too feminine? F*ck you, you’re a ‘tradwife’ (a woman who believes in the importance of homemaking and motherhood). Both are condemned as a blasphemous affront to the top-down agenda. These ideas were spawned on university campuses by academics who believe in some wild shit: our lives are built on a power struggle between groups - between the powerful and the powerless, the oppressor and the oppressed. They say we are all socially constructed and there is no such thing as men or women. We are nothing more than a product of society and the subjective. In other words, sex is mutable and you’re only a man because you were taught to be.
