07:01am: Un-Pussifying The Western Male

For any new Readers who have never looked at my Essays, or those who have been vacationing on some remote island off Papua New Guinea for the past three years, here’s the background to what follows, and explains the title of this post. You may want to read it first (and note the date it was written).

Oy. A couple of Evil Readers sent me this link, which is an article written by a woman, purporting to tell men how to be men again.

WHO’D be one of you, eh chaps? Let’s be honest, your CV these days is hardly enviable. Outperformed by girls at school, emasculated by women at home and at work, shockingly dislocated from your emotions and the hapless joke figure in endless TV commercials and sitcoms whose message is that females rule and men are fools.
Well wise up, because apparently it’s time to say enough is enough; the ridicule of men must stop. The pendulum of power has swung too far into the female corner and you must stand up and assert your right to masculinity. Stop apologising for it, be comfortable with it, but while you’re at it try to embrace a few female traits such as compromise, communication and learning to multitask.
It is called M-ness and it is The Future of Men — at least according to one particular woman who has written a book with just this title. Marian Salzman, with her co- authors Ira Matathia and Ann O’Reilly, is the American trendspotter who coined the term “meterosexual” to describe a certain breed of straight, sensitive, modern men who see nothing wrong with exfoliating and going to see a weepy film. Now she has come up with another concept to which all males must apparently subscribe if they wish to reclaim “their space, their sense of worth and even themselves”.
Indeed, she believes the revolution is already under way and that this is the “dawning of the Age of M-ness”.

Bloody hell. Is it possible to be more patronizing?

1. I wouldn’t listen to any woman telling me how to be a man, any more than I’d expect a woman to listen to a man giving advice on dealing with menstrual cramps. I note, and you will too, that this entire article is peopled by women and girlymen. Why am I not surprised?

2. Statements like this make me want to puke:

Me? I think it's hilarious. Real men who've shot bullets holes into something more dangerous than paper and have the bullet holes they've received in return as ample evidence, don't let the simple shit make them sweat. To respond to idiots is to validate idiots.
...Does that mean you'll stop harping on the liberal media and the lefties and the bunko-artists, so sayeth the huddled masses?
Not a chance. Write all you want about men, for men can handle themselves thank you very much. Leave the weak alone 'cause that's what pisses me off.
