Missouri U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley is writing a book called Manhood: The Masculine Virtues Americans Need, building off a speech he gave at a conservative conference claiming the political left is waging a war on masculinity.

“The American Founders believed that a republic depends on certain masculine virtues,” the book’s description on Amazon says. “Senator Josh Hawley thinks they were right. In a bold new book, he calls on American men to stand up and embrace their God-given responsibility as husbands, fathers, and citizens.”

His office did not respond to a request for comment. The book’s announcement comes after Hawley was mocked by the U.S. House committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, which showed a video of him running out of the U.S. Senate chamber as lawmakers, reporters and staff were being evacuated.

27. Was Josh Hawley running? He could have also been quickly skipping. Perhaps nickname him SKIPPY.

7. The guy who looks like Jane Hathaway on Beverly Hillbillies

wrote a book on manhood. OMG comedy writes itself!

15. Interestingly Nancy Culp was a Democrat

She ran for Congress in 1984 and had to face a smear campaign that involved Republican and former Beverly Hillbillies co-star Buddy Ebsen.

16. That's an interesting fact I didn't know. She played

that role so good on the hillbillies. Cracked me up how she had a crush on Jethro.

18. Buddy was a Goldwaterite.

19. Never would have dreamed he was a Republican.

21. I've seen archived footage of his smear campaign against her.

I was furious. "Barnaby Jones" was one of my favorite shows growing up.

10. Wonder if there's a chapter called "Don't Skip Leg Day".

12. Sounds like rehash of Promise Keepers.

22. Those guys who promise to stop beating their wives and promise to spend more time with their kids?

Inspiring bunch of nimrods...

[Midnight Writer]

24. No, those guys who pledge to assume their Godly role to dominate their family.

Women and children have no voice, because God endowed man with the strength, wisdom and leadership to be the sole helmsman.

By keeping the wife and kids in their place, the man projects his strength so his wife will swoon in rapture and his kids will be hetero.

13. He runs like Steven Seagal nt

17. What does he know about "masculinity".

Look, there are physiological differences between male and female in our species. Men and women have been socialized stressing different personality traits and roles. All of that however, exists within overlapping distributions within and across the various cultures and societies.

Hawley, I am sure, knows absolutely NOTHING about what is "masculine" and how the founders thought about anything. The Republic depends upon ALL people to have a good knowledge about what makes government effective, what it means to be a good citizen, and how to choose effective representatives and advocate for them to do the best by the largest amount of people, while respecting the rights of minority groups. None of that is particularly masculine or feminine.

The founders, who were almost exclusively male, seemed to think that traits associated with being male, were better for governance. Wow!! What a revelation! These same men, didn't think that the temperament of women was conducive to voting or governing.

Hawley just wishes he was back in Colonial times, except he'd be hauling ass from all manner of threats faced in that time period.

23. I think Hawley and Perjury Traitor-Gangrene are in a throw-down over who can embrace toxic

masculinity the hardest.

25. You have got to be kidding me

Haw Haw definitely overcompensating for something.
