Are The Suburbs Killing Your Manhood?

Men, this is a great article: Are The Suburbs Killing Your Manhood?An excerpt:

The problem comes when our environment begins dictating our behavior and thereby stripping men of the very things that feed our manishness...But maybe the truest calling of man lies in the wildernessof life; in learning to thrive in the environments where completecontrol is not possible.Think about every man you looked up to as a kid. Chances are theycontinually faced environments outside their complete control.Environments in which there was no guarantee of safety or success.Where one can only hope to influence rather than rule. Firefightersdueling with fire, soldiers battling the fog and friction of war,explorers traversing foreign territories, pilot’s pushing theboundaries of flight, or even the missionary working in inner-city NewYork. Each learning to thrive without being in control.
