"Feminists often argue that Manhood as we understand it is purely a social construct." What don't feminists fucking argue about? And anyway, it's not like feminism is any sort of social construct... Ahem. Brilliant piece.

I had meant to link to your article, actually, and (tequila) forgot. Particularly: <blockquote>It is also important to recognize the element of will or drive in the definition of strength. Strength, by itself, is simply a quality or ability. Strength without drive is potential energy. It is a powerful engine that sits in a garage. Strength as an aptitude or ability exists independently of drive, but unless strength is exerted, its potential is never realized and cannot be properly appreciated. Strength without drive is wasted and has no impact on anything. A man must use his strengths, he must demonstrate them, for us to truly regard him as strong in any meaningful sense. The cowering hulk is weaker than the willful man who dominates him.</blockquote> I’ll have to order a copy. I had meant to link to your article, actually, and (tequila) forgot. Particularly:

I refer back to my post on the matter. Strength for the win. http://www.jack-donovan.com/axis/2009/10/strength/ As an aside, I am very methodically making my way through Harvey Mansfield's /Manliness/ and while I brushed it off for the most part on the first read, as I make my way through it again I am realizing that it is a very important book on the topic...if a bit half-heartedly conciliatory to his feminist academic counterparts.
