Male college students to undergo ‘critical self-reflection’ of masculinity
The College Fix ^ | 1-3-2017 | Jeremy Beaman

‘Goal is to create a sense of security in vulnerability …’

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is currently taking applications for its “Men’s Project,” a six-week program that aims to counter the alleged harmful effects of society’s masculinity paradigms and pressures and empower participants to promote “gender equity.”

“Men’s Project creates a space for critical self-reflection and dialogue about what it means to be a man and how masculinity impacts us and those around us,” organizers state in promoting the effort.

“The experience focuses on the examination of societal images, expectations, and messages around masculinity to empower men to better understand themselves, promote the advancement of gender equity, and raise consciousness in their communities,” organizers add.

It’s open only to “men-identified students” at the public university and “operates on a transformative model of social justice allyship,” according to a news release on the university’s website, which adds “by encouraging that kind of dialogue among a men-identified cohort, the goal is to create a sense of security in vulnerability throughout the six-week program.”

Age-old traditions, long out of fashion, are returning.

It’s a very positive sign.

It’s boot reducation camp of the sort that the North Vietnamese, Soviet, and Chinese Communists would recognize instantly.

There, fixed it.

We need more real boot camp for these wimps, apparently.

“Male college students to undergo ‘critical self-reflection’ of masculinity”

What masculinity do they have to reflect upon?

The goal is clear: all men need to be castrated.

That will fix it.

Part of the Democratic Party platform..........

That's an easy one....if they feel the need to attend that class......they don't have any.

I reflect on my maleness and my wife’s femaleness every day. And I am very very thankful.

Millions of years ago, when I first started attending college, I was liberal. Not foaming at the mouth, protest everything liberal, but I was certainly an 18-year-old who confidently knew what was best for everyone.

At my college, there was a group of radical feminists called Women Against Rape (WAR). Sez me, who isn't against rape, but I digress. Anyhoo, one of the main planks in their platform was mandatory castration of all males at birth. For obvious reasons, I wasn't in favor of that.

What opened my eyes to what liberals really stood for was the University Administration, rather than disbanding, or (better) simply ignoring this bunch of fools, decided not only to advocate and assist these radicals, but also fund them with MY Student Fees. I was paying to fund a buncha women who wanted to kill me, or at least castrate me.

I've been a conservative ever since. I suppose that I should thank that idiot bunch of liberals, but the irony would likely be lost on them.

Same old game plan they announced from the UN a couple of decades ago.

In the case of what to do for the well being of the third world in all things the third world felt deficient in compared to US, the UN back then announced they would focus on taking the US standard of living down to the third worlds level instead of working to raise the third world’s level.

Of course, these days what we see of third world cretins tends to support the elite’s belief the third world is UNcapable of improving their lot.

But this program should make the Rosie O’Donnells of the gender confused world feel better. In an Idi Amin kind of way.

The purpose is to destroy masculinity. Have you seen “The Big Bang Theory”? The purpose of this show is to “show” that all men are insecure in their masculinity and are just skilled in repressing their inner homosexuality.

>http://charltonteaching.blogspot.com/2014/07/diversity-destruction.html<

...Diversity is an anti-religion, and anti-ideology, a nepotism which promotes everything except one’s own family. 

Diversity therefore equals the destruction of any and all religions and of all positive ideologies.

Because Diversity can only be destructive: whatever IS is insufficiently or inexactly diverse. 
Whatever IS must therefore be destroyed in order to make it MORE Diverse. 
And there is no conceivable or measurable end to it. Yesterday’s Diversity is today’s intolerable lack of Diversity.

Diversity is the destruction of Good; and it is the destruction of all types of Good - however defined. All are chewed up and spat out by Diversity.

Diversity is the promotion of chaos by the destruction of Good; and then there-naming of chaos as Good.

Right you are!

Last time I underwent a ‘critical self-reflection’ of my masculinity was for 8 weeks in 1970, at a place called Fort Ord...

“Boot Camp” for real...

My guess is I wouldn’t want to hang out with anyone who would opt to join this program.

Is there a term for the bottom strata of the pack: Zeta Males?

I have given my sons some family artifacts I’ve made, suitable for hanging on the wall. Just wanted to remind them how much family means. Along with the artifacts, I included a note, including the following:

“Love God. Lead your family. Be a man.”
