She has many videos on Youtube but one of her best ones is her Prager U one on "Making Men Masculine Again". That so much wisdom, truth and understanding could be condensed in a 5 minute video leaves me amazed. I do not know if she thought this up on her own, or if she is just the pretty, sexy conservative mouthpiece for such stunning insight, but it does not matter. What one should take away from the video is the correct appreciation of male virility, that it is desirable, should be taught to young men, practiced by all men, and is good for women and society. A Western society of masculine men and feminine, ladylike women is not only compatible with self-realization of every individual (both men and women) but is necessary and irreplaceable for civil society, the next generation of which will be comprised of masculine but responsible men, and strong women, feminine and liberated, working and mothers, at the same time.
Stuckey starts her video by declaring that rape, murder and war have one thing in common: Men. The Left agrees with this statement as well as the Right, but the Left's offers the wrong solution: men can be made less toxic by being made less feminine. Stuckey counter-argues that demonizing men is not the solution but is the problem: "When you try to make men more like women, you don't get less 'toxic masculinity', you get more."
Stuckey identifies aggression, violence and ambition unchecked by conscience, the lawless state of mind and action that is wrecking our society, are committed by men. How do we make men less toxic. The Left wants men to be made the same as women, to make boys less masculine and more like women.
Stuckey denounces this trend in school as wrong and dangerous because when men are made more like women, we get more not less male toxicity.
Let me quote Stuckey: "Why? Because bad men don't become good when they stop being men; they become good when they stop being bad. Aggression, violence and unbridled ambition can't be eliminated from the male psyche; they can only be harnessed. And when they are harnessed, they are tools for good, not for harm.
The same masculine traits that bring destruction also defeat tyranny. The traits that foster greed also build economies. The traits that drive men to take foolish risks also drive men to take heroic risks.
The answer to toxic masculinity isn't less masculinity; it is better masculinity. And we know what that looks like."
Men and women are born evil. We cannot remake our natures. We cannot make men and women equal by turning men into women. With young men we must teach them values, love and self-control so that they harness their innate aggression, violence and unbridled ambition to better society and themselves.
As gentlemen, providing fathers and soldiers serving their country, men can be masculine but constructive as leaders, warriors and heroes as Allie points out. Stuckey admonishes: "When they deny their masculinity, they run away from responsibilities, leaving destruction and despair in their wake."
Children need strong, working dads in their lives. Children without dads lead broken lives.
Allie criticizes the educational and cultural thrust to feminize young men in hopes of achieving some utopian notion of equality and peace but the result: "This anti-male tilt continues on through higher education and into the workplace. It has created millions of tentative men, unhappy women, and confused boys and girls."
Allie's wise solution: ". . .Women want real men--men they can count on and, yest, look up to. No amount of feminist theory will change that. I don't know any woman, at any age, who is attracted to a passive man who looks to her to be his provider, protector and leader. Every woman I know wants a strong, responsible man. This is not a consequence of a social contract or cultural pressure--it is innate."
Wow, such practical wisdom from one so young.
Allie: ". . . Passive men don't lead. Passive men don't do the things we have always needed men to do for society to thrive. . . bad men who do the raping, murdering and warring; and weak men who won't stop them. We need good men who will."
Strong, good men that individuate can be leaders, heroes, providers, fathers and devoted family men. They will protect and defend their women and children, without dominating or abusing them. I believe that Allie makes some profound points in this video.
