Masculinity, Christianity–and the (Surprising) Truth: Nancy Pearcey

Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:15:00 +0000

Author and professor Nancy Pearcey explores sociological data to uncover why it’s open season on masculinity—and the surprising role of Christian men.

It turns out the very concept that masculinity is toxic has much deeper roots than most of us realize. Most of us probably think about the ‘60s or something, with the feminist movement, second wave. No, no, no; you have to go all the way back to the Industrial Revolution. — Nancy Pearcey

The Toxic War on Masculinity: Nancy Pearcey

Mon, 09 Oct 2023 09:15:00 +0000

Author and professor Nancy Pearcey knows her personal, searing path toward war on men. But on a broader level, she began to ask, how did the idea arise that masculinity is dangerous? She uncovers why the script for masculinity turned toxic—and how Christianity reconciles the war between the sexes, renovating manhood for good.

There’s a sociologist who did a study, where he would ask young men, “What does it mean to be a good man?” They had no trouble answering that: “Integrity, honesty, sacrifice; to be a protector and be a provider; be generous,” and so on. Then, when he’d say, “But what does it mean to be a real man?” they would say, “Oh, no, no, no!—a real man; that’s completely different.” — Nancy Pearcey
