  The Kind of Man Every Man Should Be: 
  Taking a Stand for True Masculinity

  by Kevin McCullough

 Faith Ammen

I first met Kevin McCullough during my summer internship at the Family Research Council (he was my supervisor) and picked up a copy of The Kind of Man Every Man Should Be, his second book, as soon as it was published this September. His book describes how modern feminism has destroyed our definition of masculinity, and explores, biblically, some of the attributes and characteristics men should have. Two things stuck out to me: first, that feminism has failed us by pressuring us to believe that, as equals, men and women should be able to fulfill the same, gender-neutral roles. Second, McCullough demonstrates, based on scientific research, that the most successful way to alleviate many of society's ills (teenage pregnancy, delinquency, etc.) is simply to provide kids with a normal, two-parent home in which to grow up, yet our government continually undermines the basic family unit with many of its policies (welfare, homosexual unions, etc.).
