Men's Group

Liberalism has taken a beating over the years. I don't think it's a question of "manliness" to people who eschew it who otherwise would not. I think that's a red herring. People who would otherwise identify don't have a problem with this. But I do think it may be cryptically along these lines, in other words, branded along the lines of wishy-washy, indecisive, unwilling to make hard choices, or other ideas that men, I believe WOULD take issue with. Liberalism has stood by while conservatism has punched it in the eye so many times over the years that I've lost count. Perhaps it is this idea that liberalism didn't do much to defend itself from its opponents attempts at recasting it that men feel is pervasive in the progressive quarters, that it has no fight left in it. Maybe this is casting a stone too far, but sometimes I think we're playing to lose.
