I really enjoyed reading this, thanks for braving this topic & conversation as well as sharing. I wish more people were talking about this topic.
This quote made me nod my head: “These things are essential, though, because building and maintaining a relationship with a good woman unlocks many critical life and leadership skills that men will struggle to learn anywhere else.” I believe it’s the *depth of love and spirit* that women bring to a relationship that *open* a man up to these lessons.
I’m excited to see where you take this! Masculinity has been vilified as it’s been burdened with the sins of misogyny and abusive power. But this has left masculinity stripped of its inherent good, leaving many young men unsure what it means to be masculine. Richard Reeves covers this well in Of Boys and Men. In this way, Red Pill masculinity has hit on something true, but it’s twisted to create winners and losers. The pendulum of gender equality (or inequality) has swung to over correction, rather than looking to elevate both genders to their best empowered versions of themselves. We need more men that model healthy masculinity, and I’m looking forward to your future posts!

I’m finding it’s been on a lot of people’s minds, and there’s a lot of support for this topic.
Seems like maybe society is healing.
Great article.
