An NRO Q&A

It’s Father’s Day this weekend, in a land where men are underappreciated, disrespected, and under attack. Kathleen Parker is here to save them, with her cultural wakeup call, Save the Males: Why Men Matter. Why Women Should Care. She recently took questions on her new book from NRO editor Kathryn Jean Lopez.

Kathryn Jean Lopez: Well count me among those who think men matter. Why do they need saving though? Don’t they usually do the rescue missions?

Kathleen Parker: Men are, indeed, excellent rescuers. We like that about men. In fact, Western men rescued women once upon a time from their status as pack mules. As my friend Matt Labash might say, I like to call that Western Civilization. Men also created the big-idea documents that ultimately resulted in women’s suffrage and equality under the law. Women have demonstrated their gratitude by reaching the summit and basically pulling the ladder up behind them. “See ya, guys. You’re on your own now. Oh, and we’re taking the kids.”

Save the males? Yes, we need saving. But not me.

I am past saving, I'm afraid, although I appreaciate this lady for her stance and defence.

I am old. I am knackered. Short of winning Tattslotto I do not have any prospect of an even partially comfortable time ahead. Heck, I don't have any comforts right now. My steed is better off than I. He has the benefit of meagre consciousness. I have had everything, including vital aspects of my self, plundered.

But there is a generation (two in fact) following me, behind and alongside. And the generation that they in turn might - or might not have any inclination to given the current conditions - produce.

I work for them.

It helps to pass the time.
