It seems that the new royalty in culture is the group that can self-actualize the loudest while at the same time tearing down and trampling over whatever stands in its way.

It doesn’t take much effort to get a 'train full' of support when it comes to preaching the dangers of sharing the planet with a despicable bunch of testosterone-soaked men.

Talking about sex with guys is easy! We just stick to classic one-liners we learned at the barbershop or hanging out under the street light as teenagers.

Masculinity in 2022 is like a huge science project. Or is it more like a mad scientist's lab? There's so much that has been in this grand experiment that is no more.
