  • The Crisis of Effeminacy and How To Raise A Man. Lecture by Exorcist Fr. Chad Ripperger

    I don't think I have come across a more compelling and indicting exposition on the crisis of manhood in our culture than this somewhat underground lecture by exorcist Fr. Chad Ripperger that I recently stumbled across. Fr. Ripperger uses a Thomistic philosophical framework to expound upon the four forms of effeminacy in men today, using the Fall in Genesis as the backdrop for explaining just what happened to us and what it means to be a man. He is clear, he is concise, and he is completely unforgiving. He has no use or time for political correctness in diagnosing this...
  • Is It Okay to Be Masculine Again?

    I am a huge John Wayne fan. I grew up watching his movies, soaking in the grit, strength, and unspoken code he brought to every role. He didn’t just play heroes; he defined what it meant to be a man in a world that respected strength paired with decency. There was a time in America when the question didn’t need asking. Masculinity was a virtue, not a liability. It meant something. Not an identity crisis waiting to happen, but a foundation for society: men who worked hard, stood up straight, took care of their families, and didn’t ask for applause....
  • Cue the Leftist Meltdowns! HeCheated.org Is Compiling Data on Men In Women's Sports and It's MADDENING

    The Left has decided that women and girls are truly second-class citizens these days, forcing them to take a back seat to delusional men who think they're women and allowing those men into female-only spaces and sports. It's an offensive and unpopular position. But the Left clings to it like the last life raft off the Titanic, and they're harming a lot of girls and women in the process. Someone finally created a database of all the males competing in girls' sports and it's worse than we imagined: https://x.com/ifihadastick/status/1919743952514629743 @ifihadastick No one was tracking how often males are competing in...

    It’s vain and futile to suppose that the disordered minds of Western Civ’s entrenched Wokester Jacobins might ever be subject to polite persuasion about anything they believe. They believe only in the power of pushing their fellow citizens around, and so, alas, the only persuasion that might conceivably work to stop their infantile assaults on liberty, truth, and decency is to push back harder until they suffer and break.This is something that most parents with young children instinctively understand. You don’t negotiate with two-year-olds. You tell them how things are and what sort of behavior is required of them, as...
  • Open Source AI Hiring Bots Favor Men, Leave Women Hanging by the Phone

    Open source AI models are more likely to recommend men than women for jobs, particularly the high-paying ones, a new study has found. While bias in AI models is a well-established risk, the findings highlight the unresolved issue as the usage of AI proliferates among recruiters and corporate human resources departments. "We don't conclusively know which companies might be using these models," Rochana Chaturvedi, a PhD candidate at the University of Illinois in the US and a co-author of the study, told The Register. "The companies usually don't disclose this and our findings imply that such disclosures might be crucial...

    Ambitious Democrats are increasingly jumping into a universe of podcasts and internet shows they once shunned: right-leaning ones geared toward men. Why it matters: President Trump won the majority of male voters last November — and made huge gains among those under 30, a group Joe Biden had won in 2020. Now Democrats are scrambling to counter Trump's version of masculine appeal. ...

    During an interview with Fox 9 Minneapolis-St. Paul on Tuesday, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D) responded to safety concerns around allowing biological men in women’s sports in light of the Payton McNabb incident and the state’s lawsuit over the Trump administration’s push to keep biological men out of women’s sports by saying that “I’ll leave you and your viewers and other people to discuss what happened in one video.” Host Amy Hockert asked, “What do you think about people like Riley Gaines…girls and women who we’ve seen, sometimes videos are circulated of a volleyball player who has a ball...

    During a portion of an interview with Portland, Maine ABC affiliate Channel 8 WMTW released on Thursday, Attorney General Aaron Frey (D) said that the opposition to allowing biological men to play women’s sports “is driven, in large part, by a lot of lack of information or misinformation.” Frey stated, “I think some of the public sentiment is being driven by a lot of half-truths or untruths, right? There have been transgender athletes — student athletes in Maine for years, for years and years and years. Safety, privacy have always been a consideration, not just for transgender students, by the...

Oh, and avoid blind dates as well. Those almost never work out. Ol' PJ once knew a woman who looked like Sophia Loren who set me up on a blind date with her sister.

  • The New Marriage of Unequals Women are now more likely to marry a less-educated man than men are to marry a less-educated woman.

    Once upon a time, it was fairly common for highly educated men in the United States to marry less-educated women. But beginning in the mid-20th century, as more women started to attend college, marriages seemed to move in a more egalitarian direction, at least in one respect: A greater number of men and women started partnering up with their educational equals. That trend, however, appears to have stalled and even reversed in recent years. Gaps in educational experience among heterosexual couples are growing again. And this time? It’s women who are “marrying down.”
  • Democrats’ disdain for young men backfired in 2024 — as Trump capitalized on new media and turned Gen Z red

    New York Post ^ | March 25, 2025 | Robby Soave
    For years, the Democratic political figures, liberal activists, and the resistance movement writ large have drawn morbid comfort from the fact that Donald Trump’s supporters were, frankly, quite old. The Trump phenomenon, they believed, had an expiration date sometime in the near future: Young voters would replace their parents and grandparents as demographics shifted, and all would be right — or rather, left — with the world. The 2024 election has shattered these hopes. Trump’s gains with young people are so massive that Gen Z might as well be called Gen Trump. Data guru David Shor laid bare this stark...

    After a handful of underwhelming relationships and dozens of disappointing first dates, Andrea Vorlicek recently called off the search for a husband. The 29-year-old always thought she’d have found her life partner by now. Instead, she’s house hunting solo and considering having kids on her own. “I’m financially self-sufficient enough to do these things myself,” said Vorlicek, a Boston-based accountant. “I’m willing to accept being single versus settling for someone who isn’t the right fit.” She sees her plans for an independent future as making the best of a lousy situation. “I don’t want to sit here and say I’m...

    The D.C. establishment seems confused about why President Donald Trump and his administration are doing so well with American voters. Still, if they had been paying attention, Vice President JD Vance explained this months ago. A post from a left-wing account came across my X feed over the weekend. It included a screenshot of an interview with Vance discussing how older Ohio voters understand national conservatism even if they don’t follow along online. [snip] “The left is committed to brain-dead Bidenism,” Vance said. “Biden’s entire political project is harmonizing various parts of the American left that don’t make any sense....

    President Donald Trump’s administration is withholding $175 million from the University of Pennsylvania due to the school’s failure to ban men from women’s sports. The White House announced the decision in a post on X Wednesday, citing the university’s “policies forcing women to compete with men in sports.” The $175 million makes up approximately 20 percent of the total federal funds the university received last year, with the payments coming from the Department of Defense and the Department of Health and Human Services, a White House official told The New York Post.

    Andrew Tate is a social media figure with a large audience, estimated in the millions. He is an experienced boxer and mixed martial arts fighter.

This has been an ongoing matter since 2022. Andrew Tate holds dual British and American citizenship.

    By understanding the reasons, scientists hope to help both sexes age better.omen outlive men, by something of a long shot: In the United States, women have a life expectancy of about 80, compared to around 75 for men. This holds true regardless of where women live, how much money they make and many other factors. It’s even true for most other mammals. “It’s a very robust phenomenon all over the world, totally conserved in sickness, during famines, during epidemics, even during times of starvation,” said Dr Dena Dubal, a professor of neurology at the University of California, San Francisco.

    A new study published in PLOS One found that men and women misjudge what the opposite sex finds attractive. A research team in the United Kingdom asked 144 people — with an average age of 22 — to adjust a 3D model of a man’s or a woman’s face to match their appearance to find out what they believed the other gender finds the most attractive for both short- and long-term relationships. Sharp, bold features like chiseled jawlines are often described as more masculine, while soft, delicate features like full lips are characterized as more feminine — and everyone’s rushing...

    LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer made a direct appeal to young men who shifted sharply to the right in the most recent election in a speech Wednesday in which she continued to call for each major party to work across the aisle. Whitmer delivered her speech just days after sitting next to President Donald Trump at a White House dinner and reiterated her hope to find common ground with him. As a potential 2028 presidential candidate with a national profile built on advocating for women’s rights, Whitmer emphasized that her message was directed “to all young...
