What Is Wrong with Men

How to be a Man? That question--and all the anxiety, anger, and resentment it stirs up--is the starting point for a crisis in masculinity that today manifests as misogyny, nativism, and corporate greed; gives rise to incels and mass shooters; and leads to panic over the rights of women and minorities. According to Jessa Crispin, it is the most important question of our time, and the answer to it might be found in an unlikely place: the films of Michael Douglas.

Really enjoyed this take on current trends in masculinity and linking them to Michael Douglas movies.
