The masculinity revolution is a quiet one. Don’t trust its loudest critics.
Men are under attack. Everything that makes masculinity sacred — valor, honor, chivalry, leadership — is under siege.
What else could explain a recent commercial for a Gillette razor blade suggesting that men should spare each other from bullying and hold each other accountable for sexual harassment? How else should we interpret guidelines recently issued by the American Psychological Association to help therapists more effectively work with their male clients by better understanding the social pressure they face to be so-called real men?
Masculinity is having a moment. There’s a movement for a more expressive, more inclusive definition of manhood, but its critics see something more nefarious. If you listen to Piers Morgan or New York Times columnist Ross Douthat, skeptics of the Gillette ad and APA guidelines, you might mistake that movement as an assault waged by feminists and liberals when it’s really a quiet revolution staged in large part by men of diverse backgrounds who are tired of living by the very narrow, unforgiving standards of stereotypical masculinity.

Ladies! Good news. There’s a new meme out there to help you find your man, or rather, find all the men out there who aren’t yours.
If someone isn’t texting you back, he’s obviously not your man. But if he’s doing a bunch of other weird shit too, like “turning saints into the seas,” “tutoring Alexander the Great,” or “making you feel ill,” there’s a perfect explanation: he’s not your man because he’s Mr. Brightside, or Aristotle, or even a hamburger from McDonald’s. Makes sense.
The “He’s not your man” meme that’s been making the rounds on Twitter begins with “Ladies, if he’s:” and lists few key traits from A Man — or in some cases, an object. After the mysterious list of characteristics, simply type “He’s not your man,” and reveal the subject’s true identity. Read more…
