Change Rules Enough (And Change You Will Get)

"As women start to gain more of the social, economic, and political power they have long been denied, it will be nothing less than a full-scale revolution the likes of which human civilization has never experienced.

This is not to say that women and men will fight each other across armed barricades. The conflict will take a subtler form, and the main battlefield will be hearts and minds. But make no mistake: The axis of global conflict in this century will not be warring ideologies, or competing geopolitics, or clashing civilizations. It won’t be race or ethnicity. It will be gender. We have no precedent for a world after the death of macho. But we can expect the transition to be wrenching, uneven, and possibly very violent."


-- Reihan Salam, chronicling what he claims is "The Death of Macho" - revealing the long-range fatal flaw in the Baby Boomer's NewAge feminist hippie designs: "Macho" men are never going to join women and their allies, but have only been too decent to do anything before now, and are already preparing for battle (my best friend and I spent this weekend at a gun show) - because, I guess, weak wimpy wusses work at Foreign Policy Magazine.
