Steve this is a great entry. When not here I'm active on a men's board and I have to say your blog entry really sums up what we discuss there. I have linked this article there, so a lot of young (and not so young) men looking for direction are going to read it and get something from it.
There are a lot of men out there totally separated from their masculinity. They think it's wrong. That there is something wrong with their primal desires and instincts that they were born with as men.
This definitely comes out in our relations with women, and although you don't necessarily get into that too much here, I believe embracing your masculinity has the natural consequence of better relations with the opposite sex.
Many men today are unsure of who they are because they've been told masculinity is dangerous and from a different era. By following the principles you laid out we can move past that, embrace positive masculinity, and actually live the life that our deepest primal self is telling us, when we listen.
And THANKYOU for saying in your responses here that men and women are DIFFERENT, and that masculine energy is DIFFERENT from feminine energy. Because it is. It's why men and women are attracted to each other---because they are different.
