How to Be a Man's Man in a Culture That Hates Masculinity

Article here. Excerpt:

'You don’t have to look very hard to realize that modern society is going through a breakup with masculinity.

While macho men used to be all the rage, in recent decades, culture has shifted away from glorifying them in a big way.

The driven CEO is now seen as an abusive anger case. The creative, visionary rockstar is now seen as an out-of-control sex addict. Police are seen as violent enforcers of the status quo, politicians are seen as sexist and power-hungry and so forth. Everywhere you look, once-respected emblems of masculine power are being recast as villainous entities.

As a result, it can be a deeply weird time to be a guy. Hearing that your heroes are now the bad guys is a deeply unpleasant experience, and hearing that you might be one of them, too, is another level of frustration altogether.'

Strikes me as a stealth feminist screed. Most men these days have had quite enough of being told how and what to be. This article only seems like more of that.
