The American psyche has long been hyperfocused on power and privilege: Who has these attributes, who doesn't, and why? Historically, men have occupied the highest echelons of power across industries and geographies. Yet data indicate that men generally are more disenfranchised, disillusioned, and disengaged than ever before. Half a century ago, men were almost 60 percent of US college students; now they total 40 percent. Median wages for men have declined steadily since 1990, with roughly a third of men now either unemployed or disengaged from the workforce. Today, more US men between the ages of 18 and 34 are living with their parents than with spousal partners. What has caused a crisis in American masculinity? Can we redefine "masculinity" in a way that helps rather than hurts society? Are there likely adverse economic, social, and political impacts of this crisis in the long-term? And if so, how can they be reversed?
