A Harvard prof thinks chicks need to be educated about manliness.
  • This posting and it's response is unreal

    I have a copy of Mansfield's book on my desk and while I haven't read it, I can report that his preface begins with a rough definition: "Manliness seeks and welcomes drama and prefers times of war, conflict, and risk. Manliness brings change or restores order at moments when routine is not enough, when the plan fails, when the whole idea of rational control by modern science develops leaks."

    Yhea thanks for the research there Traister. Are you serious? Nothing has been reported here. Why read and do work, when you can skim the surface and make snide remarks. Come on. Isn't anybody else the least bit bothered by this. One of the other posters asked if this was satire. And Traister couldn't answer that question. Honestly why post a story when you don't know anything about the subject.
