from the news dept.
News Don Koberg sent us a press release about a new compilation of men's writings, entitled It's a Dick Thing: Secret Thoughts of Silent Men. The book was contributed to by thirty-three men and covers all kinds of perspectives related to maleness. "When silent men speak to confess, advise, laugh, question, brag a bit, and repair, anything is possible. The silence of the male is herewith broken." The press release is downloadable in MS Word format.

I'm reserving judgement. "Removing gender conflicts" from humanity might sound like a noble idea, but it is fundamentally impossible and wrong-headed. That said, this may be a valuable book for whatever insight it provides.

I would like to read the book, but I must admit having reservations about forewords that trip all over themselves to assure their readers that they're not going to push their maleness in everyone's face.

I catch myself wondering, is this a book about what men do and think from day to day, or is it a bunch of men trying to impress women with how sensitive they can be, with how much they can "dish." I find that there's not enough of the former, and far too much of the latter in circulation these days.

Good point - but even if men don't actually put such inclinations into practice as routinely as women do, I think it would still be good for women to know that we guys are, indeed, capable of it.


Kind of like when otherwise non-athletically inclined women, fed up with male chauvanism regarding sports, rev up the stamina to whup their boyfriends at a game of basketball or bowling - just to get the point across.
