CHILD-MAN IN THE PROMISED LAND

This is a FRUSTRATING article!!

4,646 words on why men won’t commit to marriage these days, and not a single mention of the actual reason…..not one. 

The reason is quite plain, I thought…..they don’t

have

to, any longer!!

There are so many stupid women around giving their bodies away for the use of all and sundry, that the basic male human desires can be satisfied WITHOUT marriage…..unlike the “olden days’ before the ‘60s.  In those benighted years, the male’s “sacrifice” of his promiscuous tendencies produced a tremendous payoff in the learning and practice of true intimacy, something that made the lives of both men and women better, and created a society in which children were welcomed and safe. 

Obviously, not all men were “domesticated” in earlier generations, and not all women were chaste.  Likewise, not all women today are sluts, nor are all men the SYMs being described in the article.    But, our culture’s center of gravity for these matters has shifted drastically, and it’s toward the libertine end of the spectrum.

Like it or not, men (in general) are not going to grow up and “get better”, so long as they have no particular incentive to do so……they’re having too much fun being irresponsibly focused on themselves and their own pleasure.  I’m guessing that most drinkers don’t think (much) about the coming hangover before boozing half the night – something similar is going on with guys who “play at life” through their thirties (and beyond)…..but there is a painful price to be paid in time. 

The damage to our culture is widespread and growing.  READ THE WHOLE THING

  1. I was FAR more irritated by the way the article didn’t once mention the fact that those “adult men” in the 1960’s are the absent fathers partially responsible for the crisis in masculinity we have now.

    The boys of my generation were not taught how to be men by their fathers; their fathers walked out on them and the family, or lived at the office, or simply chose to ignore their duty to raise their children into adulthood.

    Which also goes to explain the feminine crisis as well.

  2. Well, the “adult men” in the 1960s were the fathers of MY generation…..so the guys we’re reading and writing about are the GRANDsons of those guys.  Doesn’t invalidate your point - the sins of the fathers being visited upon the children to the third and fourth generation.

    However, the children of the ‘60s weren’t subject to any more abandonment than those of the ‘50s.  The enormous difference was in the acceptance of the messages from the counter- culture by our society’s leaders (media, entertainment, etc.) - and those messages were that we could only be “whole”, or “real”, or “genuinely ourselves” in some sense if we threw off the dogmas of the past and simply focused on pleasing ourselves.  Feminism, hippie-dom, etc. all enabled the anti-social and irresponsible tendencies present in males (“men” resisted, and continue to do so).

    And I totally agree that our current feminine crisis has its roots in the same period, and the same foul root, constantly being planted by the father of lies.
