"Mais quelle que soit l'époque où vous lirez ces lignes, n'oubliez pas que les fantasmes érotiques ne sont jamais datés : toute la littérature érotique, d'"Histoire d'O" jusqu'à Anaïs Nin et Henry Miller, continue à produire son effet parce que la sexualité humaine ne change pas ; c'est seulement le rideau de la répression qui peut se lever ou retomber."

Everything that thousands of men who started in dead bedrooms and lackluster relationships have learned and refined over the years, distilled into a single series of pro-man concepts. Dread is more than taking back your masculinity, but thriving in a society increasingly hostile towards men. Nothing gets soccer moms, feminists, and traditionally conservative wives angrier than watching men thrive in a way that may not necessarily benefit them (though it does if she's a value add to a relationship).
