Relation In Favor Of Books The Way of Men

The Way of Men answers the question: “What is Masculinity?”

The so-called experts give the answers that suit their masters. They tell just-so stories to protect their ideology, their religion, their way of life. They look to women for a nod of approval before speaking. They give socially acceptable answers and half-truths.

If what they have to say resonates with men, it is only because they manage to hint at the real answer.

The real answer is that The Way of Men is The Way of The Gang.

Manliness — being good at being a man — isn’t about impressing women. That’s a side effect of manliness.

Manliness isn’t about being a good man. There are plenty of bad guys – real jerks –who are manlier than you are, and you know it.

Manliness is about demonstrating to other men that you have what it takes to survive tough times.

Manliness is about our primal nature. It’s about what men have always needed from each other if they wanted to win struggles against nature, and against other men.

The Way of Men describes the four tactical virtues of the survival gang.

The Way of Men explains what men want, and why they are rapidly disengaging from our child-proofed modern world.

The Way of Men examines the alternatives, and sketches a path out of our “bonobo masturbation society” through a new Dark Age.

Criticism Of Books The Way of Men

Men and women don't want the same things subconsciously or emotionally (just look at what they find as the most attractive sexual partner and how that's different from who they want to marry or spend there lives with) They might want the same thing rationally but allot of the human behavior is NOT a rational choice for example if someone upsets you or someone attracts you , most of that is not a rational choice.This book explores part of the "male" nature that is behind the rational mind but

All men should read this book. It explains the difference between being a good man and being good at being a man....most times people are one or the other. We need to strive, especially in modern times, to be both because we are drifting towards what the author describes as a masturbatory bonobo society in which we dont take anything seriously anymore, including sex and meaningful activities. Whether you are progressive or a conservative, you should read this book-everyone has something to learn

This four star rating is for the first 80% of the book, more or less, which had some fascinating theories about what men respect in other men, based off thousands of years of what we actually needed in other men to survive. He (almost always) does a great job of avoiding trying to draw any moral or value implications from this, and the few times he forgot to do that are what caused me to take away one star.I didn't like the last few chapters on the economy and so on, as they started to sound a

Simplified, Jack Donovan's book can be distilled down to two major points. The first half of the book explores the difference between being a good man and being good at being a man. When the circle of civilization is small, it is more important to be good at being a man and it is from these origins that manhood--in its most essential form--is derived. The author identifies four virtues that have defined masculinity and helped human civilization survive from its beginnings. Yes, he essentializes

The Bonobo Masturbation Society chapter is well on point. I could not give it 5 stars because it's not a piece of art, but I came to agree with a lot of content from this book about the feminization of our society, and I surely plan to make my fair share of work toward building a more meaningful one.

I debated what to rate this because I vacillated between love and hate with so many points in this book. At its core, it is an attempt to make an amoral analysis of masculinity, and ultimately fails to make a convincing argument. I LOVED parts of this book. His discussion of the "perimeter" and his explanation of his four "tactical virtues" (four amoral, universal traits of masculinity) were great. I also found his description of viewing the state of society and its history through a lens of

Shallow logic, analysis to fit the stereotype. What a waste of time.
