Higher Education: A Key to Avoiding the "End of Men"?
By Eric SentellSeptember 30, 2011
I grew up in a working-class family that places a high value on education. That’s why I’m immune to the economic, social, and personal turmoil proclaimed by the “End of Men” soothsayers, and that’s how future masculinity can and will evolve rather than “end.” The soothsayers have a compelling argument. As more females become sole or primary providers (...Posted in Academics, Culture and Politics, Eric, Gender Roles, Manhood, nfti-home | (2) Comments »

The End of Men, From One Lesbian's Perspective
By Tanene AllisonSeptember 29, 2011

Men have never brought this topic up to me, and older and younger women seem to have figured out alternate ways of making peace with the subject....Posted in Feminism, Gender Roles, LGBT, Life, Manhood, nfti-home | (0) Comments »

It was not so much a lump of anger, but instead a feeling of sadness for the fundamental misunderstandings of feminism the piece reinforces.

With or Without Boobs
By Steph H.September 28, 2011
This blows some people’s minds. After all, by making this choice, I’ll never be able to breast-feed my future children (milk ducts: gone), never feel the sensation of my husband’s hands on my breasts (skin and nipple sensation: gone), never have saggy breasts (hey, there’s got to be some silver lining). But, by removing my breasts, I’ll also forgo the fate of so ma...Posted in Feminism, Gender Roles, Life, nfti-home, Womanhood | (2) Comments »
