Why Fathers Should Take Their Sons Fishing

The first time I went fly fishing with my father, I immediately hooked him through the finger. Neither of us knew what we were doing (obviously), and my first attempt at a cast ended with this minor bloodshed. We worked the hook out, after a bit, though, and no major damage was done. We persevered…


Democratic Senator Calls for Addressing ‘Masculinity Crisis’ Among Men

A Democratic senator is talking about a crisis he sees in men these days, saying when addressing the issue, we can’t ignore that there are biological differences between men and women. What’s the impact of the Supreme Court’s ruling on religious liberty in relation to LGBT ideology? Matt Sharp, senior counsel with the Alliance defending freedom, joins us…


Why Psychology Is Failing Men

Commentary Daniel de Visé, a writer for The Hill, recently discussed the United States’ crisis of masculinity. “More than 60 percent of young men are single,” he noted, “nearly twice the rate of unattached young women.” This gap, he warned, signals “a larger breakdown in the social, romantic and sexual life of the American male.” He’s right. It…


The Masculinity Message in ‘The Lord of the Rings’

Having read numbers of classic books, my friends are often surprised to hear that I had never read J.R.R. Tolkien’s famous “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. “You have to read it,” numerous individuals—many of them males—exhort. This fall, several of my friends—also male—took the bull by the horns and gifted me a beautifully bound edition…


Our Boys Are Struggling, and Our Society Is Too

Commentary Back in 1972, the late Dr. Francis Schaeffer wrote in “He Is There and He Is Not Silent”: “The dilemma of modern man is simple: he does not know why man has any meaning. … This is the damnation of our generation, the heart of modern man’s problem.” It seems like nearly every month a new article or…


Abortion Reveals Two Types of Men

Commentary As a group of us exited the Los Angeles Cathedral, he was standing there temporarily separated from his fellow post-Dobbs protesters, holding perhaps one of the more pathetic pro-abortion signs I can remember. There’s no shortage of embarrassing slogans and signs at any given abortion rally, from the absurd to the blasphemous. “Forced Pregnancy…


Male-Friendly Environments ‘Critical’ in Reducing Male Suicides: Suicide Prevention Group

Fostering more accessible environments for men and boys is crucial in driving down male suicides, according to a national suicide prevention charity. The call comes as Australia celebrates International Men’s Health Week, which encourages men and boys to take action on their health and wellbeing. It follows the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare’s monthly…


What Is Healthy Masculinity?

Healthy masculinity is when men flourish first for themselves, then for their families, posterity, and communities. A man embodying healthy masculinity knows who he is. He is physically healthy and strong. He is pursuing and developing his skills and capabilities to make him more competent and able to take action. He has a sense of…


Behind Every Masculine Man Is a Feminine Woman

“Where are all the good men?” is a question you’ve probably heard asked a time or two in your life. Perhaps you’ve even uttered it yourself. Instead of the manly, John Wayne-types running around, we get boys wearing tight, ill-fighting pants and flowered blouses, sweeping their long hair up into a man-bun adorned with a scrunchie….


Ukraine’s ‘Disposable’ Men and ‘Heroic’ Women

Commentary A month into the unfolding tragedy in Ukraine, and every day we are confronted with images of heroic men and women defending their country. Even some women who initially fled to other countries are now returning to contribute to the war effort, the news tells us. “Ukraine women are volunteering to fight and history…
