For about the last 150 years, American parents have infantilized teenagers by refusing to let them make decisions. As is usual when society turns in the wrong direction, it wasn”€™t average Americans who created the problem. Rather, the experts created it”€”and the problem is the imaginary psychological construct called adolescence. While we consider it a given of human maturation, and read back into history the notion of teenage rebellion, the very concept was only defined and given a name in 1904, when psychologist G. Stanley Hall, a biological determinist, coined the word.

The Koran is explicit on the subject of disciplining women in general and wives in particular, as critics of Islam, former Moslems in particular, observe. And while the Koran may not suggest “€œhonor killing”€ per se, Islamic societies and culture, as well as its men, have absorbed its sacred injunctions on the subject of women. No wonder a “€œFrench”€ Moslem gouged out his wife’s eyes for refusing sex.

American society has descended from one that whelped men who threw punches if a woman heard the lame profanity of a drunken lout, to one that whelps men who watch their women suffer rape and murder. How did we come to this pass? The answer lies in the steady stream of propaganda from the feminist cultural elites that have equated masculinity”€”and the healthy and righteous violence that goes with it when necessary”€”with evil. They taught men to behave like women.
