Theweleit. I had been thinking about those books recently, about how the fascist mind views women. Then, just now, I saw the OP about kegsbreath and "warrior ideology" at the military academies. If he hasn't actually read the books, he still embodies the mindset Theweleit wrote about.
Vol 1 came out in 1977. I was horrified by the hatred and ugliness he described then, and even more horrified as I watch that mindset increasingly taking over again.

I guess there's always the interlibrary loan... It does sound interesting.

amazon is cheaper than goodreads? That is surprising.
