Institutionalized in sports,  the military, acculturated sexuality, the history and mythology of heroism, it is  taught to boys until they become its advocates-men, not women. Men become advocates  of that which they most fear. In mastery of fear they experience freedom. Men transform  their fear of male violence into a metaphysical commitment to male violence. Violence  itself becomes the central definition of any experience that is profound and significant.id: 8ac6c79e-4204-4ec3-8627-a3c1db6ed775
