The War on Masculinity - America's Assault on Real Men (Ep #1,069)

In Episode #1069 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards delivers an unfiltered rant on the ongoing attack on masculinity in America. Kicking off with a passionate discussion, Clay questions when it all began—pinpointing potential starting points like the '90s feminist adoption of "toxic masculinity," the 2019 Gillette ad criticizing male behavior, the #MeToo movement's alleged hypocrisy in targeting Democrat donors, and even earlier influences like Brokeback Mountain normalizing certain narratives. He warns about the "feminization" of young men through college indoctrination, linking it to rising issues like low testosterone, protein deficiency, depression, isolation, drug addiction, suicide, and shifts toward homosexuality among 18-25-year-olds who return home "changed" after freshman year.Clay emphasizes that true masculinity isn't about stereotypes like bench-pressing 225 or tattoos, but about mental, physical, and spiritual strength—championing physical fitness and working out as essential for building a "masculine mind," boosting leadership, and combating cultural pressures. Sharing personal anecdotes, like his late-night workout routine and cooking experiments gone right (air-fried eggs for the win), he admits his own on-and-off fitness journey but stresses how it makes him a better family leader and community voice.Listener interactions heat up the episode: A caller traces the "slow boil" back to the early '90s "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, while comments from the live stream (like Jeremy sharing motivational content with his sons and high school teacher Greg assuring no such indoctrination in Mississippi public schools) add real-world perspectives. Clay critiques AI-sourced historical overviews, noting Enlightenment-era feminism roots but arguing critics aimed to "liberate" men from norms, not demonize them—yet today's "feminist masculinity" pushes emotional openness over traditional strength.Wrapping up, Clay calls for defeating this "cultural war" without landing in prison, urging mentors, parents, and role models to guide young men toward real-world skills over "useless" degrees. If you're raising sons, nephews, or grandkids, this episode is a must-listen wake-up call on reclaiming manhood in a rudderless society.Catch the full episode on YouTube @SaveJXN
