Men respond to and admire the qualities that would make men useful and dependable in an emergency. Men have always had a role apart, and they still judge one another according to the demands of that role as a guardian in a gang struggling for survival against encroaching doom. Everything that is specifically about being a man-not merely a person-has to do with that role.” MenNeedsLooksPersonsStillsQualityRolesStruggleVirtueJudgingDemandSurvivalAdmireManhoodEmergenciesGangGuardianDoomEvaluateDependablePerimeter Author:Jack Donovan
