In order for a societal grouping to survive it develops rules of conduct or standards of behavior that eventually become custom and tradition. These standards of behavior focus on the propagation and preservation of the species. Mating rituals, marriage ceremonies, rites of passage, and respect for elders become the norm of societal activity. Children are... »

The Unseen and the Fourthwire Generation
The response to my last article Marriage is Natural, provided insight into the thinking of the young men of our generation. Comments by fourthwire aptly described their values and I will refer to them as the fourthwire generation, a generation forsaken by society, or more correctly, a generation denied instruction and discipline in manhood.... »
Marriage is Natural
Several of the comments made as an aside in response to my blog Let’s Stop Trying to Fix the Unfixable indicated support for the equivalent of a marriage strike, and expressed a belief that it has produced fewer divorces. If we carry that thinking to the extreme and nobody gets married then obviously nobody... »
A Taste of Things to Come
My thanks to all who did not succumb to the tactics of the few who cast aspersions about my integrity, and the integrity of those who support my message, and of those who support my right to present it. The attack of unfounded charges approached hysteria and reflects desperation. It was a good experience for... »
Let’s Stop Trying to Fix the Unfixable
Would you buy a car that never worked? If the salesman and mechanic explained that it is the best-designed car on the market, it’s just that a few kinks have to be ironed out, would you buy it? Would you go to a surgeon who had never performed a successful surgery? Would you go... »
Icons or Iconoclasm?
When my book was in manuscript form I indicated in the chapter Gender Characteristics, that an extreme manifestation of the masculine gender was iconoclasm. However, before having it published I edited that term out as I felt that iconoclasm had its place in the service of or detriment to society. I take this opportunity to... »
Let’s Work on Causes not Effects
I donate to seven different environmental organizations. The paid staffs and volunteers of these organizations work hard and accomplish a lot. However, they are collectively losing on all fronts. Air, water, and food pollution continue to increase at a rapid rate, as does the disappearance of various forms of life species. The failure of... »
Male Responsibility
Issues of marriage and divorce maintain high interest among MND readers whenever they appear in articles, and relationships between men and women probably concern us more than anything else—at least on a subjective level—because humankind would cease to exist without that relationship, although in our materially oriented self indulgent society it tends to occupy... »
Response to Change
RESPONSE TO CHANGE When a person gives a lecture to a group of people the subjective responses usually fall into three categories: 1. “He’s right on,” 2.”Interesting, I’ll think about it,” 3.” Off the wall, why did they let him in here?” If the lecture also calls for action, the responses become more emotional: 1.... »
Masculine Input Required To Improve Society
In the article A Trinity of Accomplishment I gave illustrations of how the masculine influence acting upon the receptive feminine entity produces all things. Without the interplay of gender nothing can be produced, and within that interplay nothing can be initiated without the masculine principle. An example of what happens without the involvement of... »
A Trinity of Accomplishment
The production of all things requires three components: the Will, the producing vehicle, and the medium. The Will comes from the masculine principle, the producing comes from the feminine principle, and the medium is substance or matter. Principles are absolute and complete; they do not contain shadings or degrees. Two and two always totals four,... »
Gender Characteristics
In A Statement of Gender I explained the universal principle of gender and how it functions. As a continuation of how gender influences our actions I have included herewith the characteristics of gender. The “I” represents the masculine principle of gender. It contains the will that motivates the “ME”, which represents the feminine... »
A Statement of Gender
In preparing to E-mail information materials to an overseas reader I realized that I had written one of the pieces on a word processor about eight years ago and therefore did not have a copy stored in my computer. The piece is A STATEMENT OF GENDER, which I have retyped and am presenting below... »
Decreased Inventiveness — A Symptom
As you sit in your chair and look around and take stock of the mechanical, electrical, and electronic products that you use on a daily basis and take for granted, you might realize that all of these things were a result of someone’s inventiveness. What you might not realize is that these products were... »
Truth part 2
I never planned a sequel to my original article but the events of the past few days have provided the fodder for it. Firstly let me state that I never investigated Joyanna or anyone else for that matter. The fact that I used a name other than Adams was absentmindedness. If it was her maiden... »
Truth
Truth is an unseen quality that emanates from the masculine principle. A lie is the lack of truth that develops in the absence of manliness. The more honesty a man exhibits the more manly he becomes. As our society becomes more feminized, which in reality means becoming less masculine, truth gives way to lying. I... »
What We Can Change and How
Expending effort on matters that we can do something about produces a return on our investment of time, talent, and treasure; whereas, expending effort on matters we can do nothing about wastes our energy and causes frustration. Unfortunately, all of us to some degree expend energy on matters that we have no control or... »
Moving Towards change
In my article The Need for Male Authority, I said the following; “The next two weeks you will see the gist of my articles shift from explaining and justifying patriarchy to how to implement change.” I considered the subsequent article, Pictures and Points, which I had written four years ago for an ethnic paper,... »
Pictures and Points
To help pay the bills I do story telling, and as part of that activity I belong to an organization that promotes story telling among senior citizens, locates opportunities for them to speak, and helps to train them. During a training session I told a story of the meticulous detail my family put into... »
