The He Hormone

Return of the King writes "An article about testosterone as it relates to all of society enlightens many issues relevant to the rights of men. After a feminist century, we are in need of a new understanding of masculinity. The concepts of manliness, of gentlemanly behavior, of chivalry have been debunked by a ferocious post-feminist culture. Indications of masculine cultural displacement are everywhere today, in a world in which the power of testosterone is ignored or attacked, with the result that it re-emerges in cruder, weaker and less social forms. Our main task in the gender wars of the new century may not be how to bring women fully into our society, but how to keep men from seceding from it, how to reroute testosterone for constructive ends, rather than ignore it for political point-making."
