In Manning Up, Manhattan Institute fellow and City Journal contributing editor Kay Hymowitz argues that the gains of the feminist revolution have had a dramatic, unanticipated effect on the current generation of young men. Traditional roles of family man and provider have been turned upside down as "pre-adult" men, stuck between adolescence and "real" adulthood, find themselves lost in a world where women make more money, are more educated, and are less likely to want to settle down and build a family. Their old scripts are gone, and young men find themselves adrift. Unlike women, they have no biological clock telling them it's time to grow up. Hymowitz argues that it's time for these young men to "man up."

Karolyn and her husband, Ernest Jennings met in 1981 through a writers club. Throughout the years they became best friends who shared their lives through letters and poetry. Often writing poems together by mailing the same poem back and forth across the country until they were both satisfied with the finished result. Ernest vowed that one day he would marry me and I just laughed. Ernest moved to Detroit after overcoming some minor obstacles they married on September 23, 2000. He called her his ‘angel’ and he was her ‘Nitro.’ They shared their poetry, laughter, lean times, tears and good times together until February 18, 2015 when Ernest’s heart gave out. “The love of my life is no longer here but he left me many happy memories." “To know Ernest was to know Love.”

Romance and love are in a state of crisis: Statistically speaking, young women today are living romantic lives of all kinds—but they’re still feeling bogged down by social, cultural, economic, and familial pressures to love in a certain way. Young women in the modern world have greater flexibility than ever when it comes to who we choose to love and how we choose to love them; but while social circumstances may have changed since our parents’ generation, certain life expectations remain. In Outdated, Samhita Mukhopadhyay addresses the difficulty of negotiating loving relationships within the borderlands of race, culture, class, and sexuality-and of holding true to our convictions and maintaining our independence while we do it. Outdated analyzes how different forms of media, cultural norms, family pressure, and even laws, are produced to scare women into believing that if they don’t devote themselves to finding a man, they’ll be doomed to a life of loneliness and shame. Using interviews with young women that are living around, between, within, and outside of the romantic industrial complex, Mukhopadhyay weaves a narrative of the alternative ways that women today have elected to live their lives, and in doing so offers a fresh, feminist look at an old topic: How do diverse, independent young women date happily and successfully—and outside of the box?

I have found that there a so many issues that need to be addressed in the Church today. Not just in the Methodist church but in all Christian churches. I have realized that one need is to get Men back into church. Most congregations will have from 60% to 75% of Sunday service consisting of woman. We used to have congregations that were made up of at least half men. Why have they left and where did they go? I have tried to address this issue in this book. We have got to make church more friendly and comfortable for men. Many men feel that the Church has become feminine. Think about your church for a minute. What impression will a 25 year old construction worker have when he inters your church for the first time? Do the men in your church welcome first time men visitors? Are there activities in your church that this 25 year old construction worker can get involved in? There are many questions that need to be answered by us in our quest to regain the male presence that has become a missing part of our church today. I hope that this book will get some of you to try to answer these questions and start on the path to returning men back to Church. It will certainly make our churches stronger.

Do you ever wonder what’s going on in a man’s mind? Do you keep getting into bad relationships with the wrong type of men? Has Mr Luke Warm got you feeling like Ms Justine Case? Have you ever wondered why a man who loves you would cheat on you? There are millions of smart, successful, beautiful women out there who are making disastrous relationship decisions. Ladies sure love horoscopes but seem to have a problem seeing the signs. Many of them don’t realise the mistakes they’re making, nor understand the psyche of the average man. “Lying Fully Clothed: Exposing the Naked Truth About Men” offers an unadulterated, yet hilarious insight into the mind of a player from the viewpoint of someone who’s been on both sides; the player and the played. In this book, you will find out the plethora of tactics that a man will use in order to cheat on a woman or just keep her on the side as a “link”. On top of this, you will discover what a man truly wants and how you can capture the one that’s right for you. Stimulate a man’s body and you may have him for the night; stimulate a man mentally and you may have him for life. Dear Rob is an author who uses history, anthropology, sociology, his quirkiness, and the fact he has been that man you’ve pulled your hair out for, to convey a hard-hitting message to unveil the shroud that covers many women’s eyes. However, if you’re looking for a man to complete you, you’ve missed the whole point.

American society has become anti-male. Men are sensing the backlash and are consciously and unconsciously going “on strike.” They are dropping out of college, leaving the workforce and avoiding marriage and fatherhood at alarming rates. The trend is so pronounced that a number of books have been written about this “man-child” phenomenon, concluding that men have taken a vacation from responsibility simply because they can. But why should men participate in a system that seems to be increasingly stacked against them? As Men on Strike demonstrates, men aren’t dropping out because they are stuck in arrested development. They are instead acting rationally in response to the lack of incentives society offers them to be responsible fathers, husbands and providers. In addition, men are going on strike, either consciously or unconsciously, because they do not want to be injured by the myriad of laws, attitudes and hostility against them for the crime of happening to be male in the twenty-first century. Men are starting to fight back against the backlash. Men on Strike explains their battle cry.
