The Toxic War on Masculinity: Nancy Pearcey

Published: Oct. 9, 2023, 9:15 a.m.

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\u2014and 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, \u201cWhat does it mean to be a good man?\u201d They had no trouble answering that: \u201cIntegrity, honesty, sacrifice; to be a protector and be a provider; be generous,\u201d and so on. Then, when he'd say, \u201cBut what does it mean to be a real man?\u201d they would say, \u201cOh, no, no, no!\u2014a real man; that's completely different.\u201d -- Nancy Pearcey
