"Masculinity Under Siege"
Article here. Excerpt:
'Last Friday the New York Times Men’s Style section published an article that I’m still desperately hoping is satire: “27 Ways to Be a Modern Man.” If it’s not, then the state of modern manliness is a sorry one indeed.
We’ll get to that article in a moment; it wasn’t the only recent commentary on contemporary manhood. Writing last week in National Review, for example, David French expressed disgust with our “unmanly” “victim culture” that encourages us to cultivate “a sense of weakness and fragility.” It is a mindset that is “killing manhood,” he warns.
The College Fix reported this week that Vanderbilt University recently held a “Healthy Masculinities Week” (who knew there’s more than one masculinity?) featuring programs that helpfully deconstruct America’s “narrow definition of masculinity” for impressionable students.
A short video from Huffpost Women that openly equates masculinity with sexism (tagline: “Because sexism hurts men too”) has been making the internet rounds again. In it, a handful of rather effeminate hipsters suffering from vocal fry struggle to answer the question, “What does masculinity mean?” One of them comically posits that, “historically,” masculinity has been “a way to differentiate yourself from women.” Well, duh.'

Irony...
I find it rather ironic that feminists, SJW and so-called "Progressives" say that MGTOWs MRAs and men, as a whole, who speak out for men's rights are being "unmanly".
Have you SEEN most Male-Feminists and SJW?
They are almost as feminine as I am!!! (and I am ultra feminine!)
They speak with a very feminine inflection, with very feminine, limp-wristed hand gestures, and facial expressions! And they have the nerve to say that MRAs, MGTOWs, etc, are "unmanly"???
That is flipping hilarious!
Male-Feminists are called "Manginas" for a reason!
