I must plug The Dangerous Book For Boys. It truly is awesome. All women should read it.

I have to admit, it pisses me off that conservatives would try and claim this book. After all, it covers not only Go Carts, but Shakespeare. It gives you poems to memorize, as well as teaching you cool paper airplanes.

Fear of being girly only seems to effect men on the Right.

He does not need to build treehouses or go-carts to get in touch with his inner boy. He does not feel guilty if someone is unhappy with him. He does the dishes because they need to be done and he changes diapers because someone has to do them. Gender postures and gender confusion is for neurotic Republicans.</p> The true man does not need to feel manly.
