The Compleat Gentleman, New on the Conserv. Book Club
I thought people might get a kick or a fright out of this book on the Conservative Book Club list.

"In these days of astonishing confusion about what it means to be a man, Brad Miner has gone back into the riches of our Western cultural heritage to recover the oldest and best ideal of manhood: the gentleman. In The Compleat Gentleman, he revives a thousand-year tradition of chivalry, honor, and heroism, providing a model for modern masculinity that our fractious culture needs more than ever.

"Miner explains that contrary to fashionable feminizing psychobabble, real manhood is not complicated. It is, in fact, an ancient ideal based on service to God, country, family, and friends. It's simple to state, yes, but not so easy to attain -- and worthy of a lifetime of struggle."

1. Brad Miner wishes he had a bigger penis

"Three essential truths powerful enough to turn a dyed-in-the-wool liberal into a rock-ribbed conservative gentleman"

What a nut
