They stopped being men and became guys, and now, in tragic numbers, feckless soy boys. Dr. Taylor Marshall and Tim Gordon of the smashing TnT podcast (Taylor Marshall and co-host Tim Gordon) and YouTube channel join me to talk about the death of men and how it has affected the behavior of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church. What would a resurrection of men look like?   In this episode you will learn Why we need to stop validating the word feminism (namely its toxic meaning) with some kind of nice adjective, like “Christian feminism,” “new feminism.” The roots of the crisis of masculinity How this crisis manifests itself in the disappointing behavior of so many priests, bishops, and cardinals Why the biblical analogy of Christ as Bridegroom and the Church as Bride remains the fundamental truth of the relationship between the sexes The basic distinction between masculine and feminine, and why the sexes are not “equal” but complementary. The true meaning of submission in Ephesians 5 and why it doesn’t mean subjugation   Resources mentioned in this episode TnT podcast and YouTube channel My Episode 71 interview with Rev. Gordon Dalbey Crisis of Masculinity by Leanne Payne   Join the Conversation Question of the week: What do you think is the best one-word synonym for masculinity? Femininity?
