In my readings of books about “reimagining masculinity”, I’ve come across authors using the Semai people of the Malay Peninsula as an example of a culture that doesn’t have your typical culture of manhood with an emphasis on aggression, competition, and status.

This used to be a Borders. This is where I got the idea for Art of Manliness back in December 2007. Was standing in the magazine section when I got the idea. It was behind the wall right about where that awning is on the right.
Hit publish on the first article in January 2008

I get asked a lot “How do you remember all that stuff you read?”
This is the answer. I write about it in a blog post, or I craft an interview with the author of the book on the podcast.
At a bare minimum, I at least try to share what I’ve been reading with a friend or family
If you’re constantly reading without writing about what you consume, you’re over-estimating your knowledge retention. Writing is how you digest ideas. Knowledge can only seep from the head to the heart once you translate other people’s ideas into your own words.

Here’s the market differentiation for the AoM podcast
- it’s under an hour long (you can listen to an entire episode in the commute to and from work)
- no dumb chit chat and inside jokes
- I do my best to let the guest talk after I ask a question and only add my own

"A high percentage of the people speaking about men’s issues in mainstream society are women ... [but] the first step to compete with men’s online influencers is to have men talking to and about other men." 👏

Thinking about how when I was a kid in the 80s and 90s, the slightly rich kids at your school had pool tables at their houses. I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen a pool table in a home.

Dads, if your kid is playing rec league sports and need a coach to volunteer for the team and you’ve got the bandwidth for it, go for it.
Don’t worry if you don’t have any experience coaching. YouTube has lots of vids on drills for kids in all the sports.

If you’re ever intimidated/nervous when you meet a person of higher status, just remind yourself they’ve clogged the toilet several times throughout their life. They probably clogged it last week. Clogging a toilet is the great leveler.

You’ve likely seen Action Hank telling young Dexter that “It’s not the beard on the outside that counts, it’s the beard on the inside.” Well, Action Hank unwittingly made an argument that a monk named Abbot Burchard made way back in the 10th century 🧵
