- author: Andrea Dworkin
- content: Men develop a strong loyalty to violence. Men must come to terms with violence
- because it is the prime component of male identity. 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.
