Book Reviews of The Wimp Factor: Gender Gaps, Holy Wars, and the Politics of Anxious Masculinity

Book Review: Explaining the Macho Attitude
Summary: 5 Stars

I enjoyed this book and learned so much that I bought copies to give to friends. I wondered where these macho fixations came from (especially in the Republican Party) and now I have a better understanding of their origins.
I think it is must read.....even more so in this important political year.
