James Howard Kunstler talks about a crisis of masculinity for American men in KunstlerCast #184: Fake Warrior Culture. He also talks about it again briefly in a more recent episode. I think it is this one: KunstlerCast #191: Get Used to Being Uncomfortable. The causes of this crisis can be linked to the rise of the nation-state and concentration of economic power (i.e. modern capitalism). But feminism is also a factor. Would Mr. Kunstler be willing to take that on?

Jack Donovan recommends the following piece: I Miss Iraq. I Miss My Gun. I Miss My War. Shades of The Hurt Locker?
