In his book about masculinity, The Descent of Man, Perry argues that men—especially middle aged, middle class white ones—are lacking in self-awareness because they have gone through life taking their privileged position for granted. Being treated as the cultural default means never having to interrogate your own behaviour. But in a world which is moving towards greater equality, where maleness can no longer be regarded as an automatic ticket to the top, men will have to develop more humility and learn to, as Perry puts it, ‘sit down’.

Actually they seem to go for fascism and "brocialism" instead.

The post about teaching women assertiveness etc. is fantastic:

No time for more today but I think I'll want to read that blog from start to finish.
