Man Down: The Attack on American Masculinity. Progressives tell us that men are destructive rulers the world, low-intelligence Neanderthals and oppressors of women.
Thanks to modern science, men are not even essential for procreation. In a culture where women are encouraged to be empowered and independent in the workplace and at home, men are left searching for their place in society and boys don’t know where to turn, which can lead to devastating effects. TheBlaze Magazine Assistant Editor Sharon Ambrose destroys the left-wing meme of conservatives’ “War on Women” and makes the case that the real fight is an attack on men and masculinity that has been launched by the radical progressive left, particularly the Marxist feminist movement.
