In his recent comment, Lastmod made an important observation while discussing the death of the manosphere due to the atomization of society: All of what we are seeing has and IS being orchestrated. Not in the sense of a secret committee of a few people….but through a long march through …
This is part of a series on patriarchy, headship, and submission. See this index. Once upon a time, on June 21, 2017, Dalrock posted an article entitled “Straining out gnats” (PDF) in which he discussed 1 Timothy 2:12 with respect to women teaching and holding authority. For the first time, I …
For some time now I’ve been reading the work of James Attebury on his blog on Christian theology and apologetics. I’ve referenced his work once before in “Luke 23:43 and Sheol.” His posts have a distinctively academic tone, with plenty of citations. In some ways, it is a lot like Anabaptist …

One common aspect of expressed masculinity that has been pushed is physical fitness, specifically body weight. And so today I want to …
I’m starting a series that I’ve been wanting to write for some time. The manosphere claims to be about the promotion of patriarchy and masculinity as the pinnacles of manhood, but the tactics they use and the opinions they share are lefitst and they are effeminate. Over the course of this …
