The Art of Manliness on youtube

I get Art-0f-Man emails all the time and find them interesting. I recommend them to all the young men I know.
 
Ok I subscribed. And I swear my beard just got thicker.
 
How to sip a fine whiskey, how to select and prepare cigars, how to encourage domestic duties in the women.
:D
 
Not much of value there. I don't equivocate weight lifting with manliness (which seems to be his main thing). I have run a couple of marathons. I wonder if he is up to it? Of course, that isn't a gauge of manliness either. Strange site/concept. I doubt I will check back.

I haven't touched an iron in over 6 years and never had great results when I did. I buy wrinkle free shirts and send dress pants to the dry cleaners. If a suit or something needs touching up, I just use a steamer (maybe once a year or less).

If you need a youtube video to figure out how to be an adult male human you're doing it wrong.

It works well for the broken home crowd without any male role models. And the skinny jeans metrosexuals when they realize fedoras and skinny jeans looks silly on them in their 30s. :) :) :)
 
I got married to a lady that took chores away from me as I screwed them up.
 
I'm very near "a major university campus". The number of skinny jeans wearing, up talking, effeminate voiced males is... depressing. They've been raised to be afraid of their "toxic masculinity".

Yes. There is a real need for a site like this.
 
Seems like there has been a generation or two for which nobody taught the young men how to be strong, capable, and confident without acting like a douche. I think the skinny jeans kids and "toxic masculinity" crap all comes out of that.

And the number of people who should be sufficiently intelligent but instead buy into antiquated stereotypes is depressing to me.
 
I have subscribed via RSS for a few years. Good way to kill some time at the office until I can leave and be productive at home.

Antiquated worked. Not sure about the present. Time will tell, but the direction is depressing to me.

I wonder if it's the same way for each prior generation? I am pre-grumpy ol' man stage myself and I resemble some of the old stereotypes. Kids these days, sheesh...

Being male is systematically oppressed in schools and society today.

Only in some sort of science fiction alternative reality. Women are paid less, promoted less, and often stigmatized in the workplace. I just read this morning with distress that this is a common feature of academia, where women scientists are promoted less frequently and given poorer lab space. There is a gigantic lawsuit at the Salk Institute concerning this very concept. I only mention scientists because we're supposed to know better.

From the harassment in Silicon Valley to the POTUS bragging about sexual assault, women are harassed and often exploited in our society.
