"Instead of desiring to grow up into self-sacrificial, self-controlled, hard-working, reliable men, it seems we are instead more interested in playing, feeding our lusts, and flipping off our future." -- Matthew Pennock, As a Man Is so Is His Strength
Men are in trouble.
There are few things less en vogue than being a man. Toxic masculinity is simply shorthand for a hatred of anything remotely masculine. All that trends "Y" is met with resistance. Being a man is so unpopular, in fact, that even many men don't want to be one. They prefer, instead, to stay boys; and some, alarmingly, want to become women. The reason this is alarming is because men, by nature, have typically been quite competitive; and there's nothing a man is worse at than being a women unless, of course, he isn't into competition; in which case he is well on his way to becoming one.
Jeremiah 51:30
The warriors of Babylon have ceased fighting; they remain in their strongholds; their strength has failed; they have become women; her dwellings are on fire; her bars are broken.
