Over the centuries, society and religion have made men into many things they are not. "Men don't cry; it's a sign of weakness." In painful circumstances, "you have to swallow the pain like a man." In courtship, "it is men who do the chasing," and on and on. In this book, Kodi Blackman questions the behavioral identities created by society for men and ponders whether these identities have stripped men of their humanity. He also explores the tensions between society and nature's expectations of men and between what society frowns on about men and what men indeed could have become were it not for society's molding.
This little book might be a revolutionary contribution to humanity.
