Spartan: If we took your approach of only "consciously considering the differences in individuals," without finding patterns like "masculine energy" to group people by, nothing would ever get done and information would never get disseminated.
If you think this article is saying "You are not a man until you follow these things," I think you are just projecting a prejudice based on the title. How does this decrease acceptance. Do you think we will look at men who do not follow these tenants and say "He is not a man,"? Of course not!
This post is more like a roadmap for men on the path to leading lives of ultimate fulfillment. If you develop these qualities, the journey will be much easier. Maybe easy is a bad word, but you understand my point.
Instead of only trying to judge the article on its negative traits (you should do that, too), try and see what you can gain from it. At least it's working - it causes you to re-examine your old beliefs. |
