“Women's liberation is one thing, but the permeation of anti-male sentiment in post-modern popular culture - from our mocking sitcom plots to degrading commercial story lines - stands testament to the ignorance of society. Fair or not, as the lead gender that never requested such a role, the historical male reputation is quite balanced. For all of their perceived wrongs, over centuries they've moved entire civilizations forward, nurtured the human quest for discovery and industry, and led humankind from inconvenient darkness to convenient modernity. Navigating the chessboard that is human existence is quite a feat, yet one rarely acknowledged in modern academia or media. And yet for those monumental achievements, I love and admire the balanced creation that is man for all his strengths and weaknesses, his gifts and his curses. I would venture to say that most wise women do.” LifePhilosophyWisdomCultureFeminismModernityWomen S LiberationWestern CivilizationPopular CulturePostmodernismMaleness Author:Tiffany Madison
“Modern man is full of platitudes about living life to its fullest, with catchy keychain phrases and little plaques for kitchen walls. But if you've never retreated to the solitude of a dark room and listened to Beethoven's Ninth from start to finish, you know nothing. For music is a transcendental exploration of human emotion and experience, the very fabric of life in its purest form. And the Ninth our greatest musical achievement.” LifeJoyMusicSymphonyClassical MusicBeethoven Author:Tiffany Madison
“True art is thoughtful, emotional examination of how human themes impact the overall experience of existing. The rest is kitsch.” LifeArtTruthArtistHumanityExistenceExperience Author:Tiffany Madison
