The death of testosterone and drive. It started in the schools with the oppression of boys and the empowerment of girls. Yes, Apollo 13 was a failed mission, but if you watch the movie, take note of the drive, passion and innovation of the men on the ground as well as the astronauts. Couple the demasculinization of men with the many federal regulations governing workplace behavior aimed at paralyzing men... Let’s just say it’s no wonder we can’t do ANYTHING anymore.

Yesterday, I went to a Great Cuts (girlie barbers) in my area. The ‘technician’ was a 20-something, daughter-aged young lady. From the time that she asked for my last name to almost the time that I walked out the door, she seemed to be speaking to me from a strange kind of age-reversal perspective with me being the little brother and she as the wise old bird and “sexpert”. I had to laugh because it was all normalized once she realized how well I had tipped her. At first, I was the little brother but then suddenly I’m ‘Daddy’. As for the haircut, I give her an 8 out of a possible 10.
Women can (and do) make very important contributions to the workplace and it is arguable that the world has been poorer for not taking feminine “takes” on things in the past.
But having said that, it is certainly true that women are much much less likely to take risks than men, and theres no gain without risk.
And it’s the death of American competence, too. We’ve become a nation of incompetent idiots. Go drive somewhere in your town; chances are you will see 10 overt acts of idiocy within five miles of your home. Go look at clueless shoppers at Meijer or Wal Mart. People today just DON’T THINK.
Once upon a time, Americans were known for their ability to innovate, organize and implement, in virtually every endeavor known to man. Today, not so much at all. And those areas we still do things well, we are busy pissing away.
And it has a lot to do with the demasculinization of men, as you pointed out. Now a man who wants to be a man is branded a criminal, and only ignorant criminals are acting as “manly.” There aren’t enough real men left in the generation under 40 years of age. Do you really think America could fight and win another World War? Nope, I don’t.
