important message. The old rules of masculine success generally backfire today, yet neither older men nor anyone else has anything constructive to offer. Young men continue to receive mixed messages that confuse. The research on white working class men indicates a pile of problems that have to be taken seriously, because, together, they support a 'victim' identity that easily leads to worship of authoritarian leaders. Modernizing masculinity is a social project, not an individual one. Yet, most believe men should quietly fix themselves as lone individuals. My blog will be publishing soon on fresh research about how entrenched this individualist solution bias still is.
