The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love
by bell hooks
the initiation to manhood is the castration of boy's emotional self rendering them socially inept killers in a cruel world of petty power struggles. they can't handle conflict or change so they avoid and abandon. sex and work are violent ego trips to retrieve valor and avoid family and self. religion and violence are the only ways men can feel because they maintain patriarchy. men are eunuchs haunted by the ghost of their whole selves.
we need feminist spaces for all people built on equal treatment and responsibility. spaces where women are empowered and men feel. spaces where we mourn our old selves and fulfill the social role we always wanted. spaces where sex is part of love, work is part of community, and religion is part of fulfillment.
