In an article for Public Books, Lisa Wade, a sociology professor at Occidental College recently wrote that “we should reject the idea that men have a psychic need to distinguish themselves from women.” Why? Because “masculinity is toxic.” In fact, we should be “suspicious of males who strongly identify as men.”
My wife has a theory on this -- notwithstanding what they say, women eventually long for a man like their grandfather or father. She thinks that to some extent, that's the appeal of Trump. He says what's on his mind. Not my theory -- hers.
