Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a coming-of-age answer to the masculinity crises in America as well as globally.
Young men today are lost and cannot find a valid path to maturity as men.
While Radical Feminism from the far-left emasculates young men and discourages any form of traditional masculinity as toxic, young men default to toxic and often outdated models of masculinity from the far-right.
As a result, young men either opt-out of a path to maturity or they choose a path that is toxic and even misogynistic.
This book provides valid rites of passage to avoid emasculation from the left as well as negative masculine traits from the right.
This book will re-define the parameters of masculinity and seek a balance between the progressive forces that would further emasculate men as well as the conservative forces that would seek to keep men under the tutelage of outdated norms of masculinity.
Young men today in America still ponder these questions in frustration. When is man a man? When does the boy become the man? Is a man a man if he cannot physically defend himself? Is a man a man if he does not bear children?
The inner-voice of Professor Pluck encourages young men to listen to seek masculine maturity through physical, intellectual, spiritual, and cultural rites of passage, and thus masculine maturity and manhood.
