The New Masculinity

According to the seminar description on "The New Masculinity," Pat Fagan, senior fellow and director of the Family Research Council's Center for Family and Religion, will discuss how "feminism has wreaked havoc on marriage, women, children and men. It is time to redress the disorder it has wrought and that must start with getting the principles and ideals for a new 'masculinism' right."

This quote is from an article on feministing.com that I wanted to bring to peoples attention. Apparently, the FRC believes feminism is ruining families, and the only way to fix this is with masculinity. I personally think this is hilarious- who are these brilliant men who think feminism can be beaten down with masculinity? Don't they realize feminism has been fighting this battle ever since it came into existence? And if you really consider equality between men and women "wreaking havoc" you're out of your mind, and have no place giving speeches to anyone.
