Breaking the Macho Code: An Exploration of the Patriarchal Mind and Culture

Product Description Breaking The Macho Code critically examines the code's dysfunctional image of masculinity and how it fails to give men a manhood capable of loving sex and relationship. Instead it sets men up for obsession, abuse and even violence towards women. About the Author Paul Hennig writes out of his long experience with the Macho world beginning with the fraternity house and locker room at the University of Buffalo and Cornell. Then the bachelor officer's quarters and squadron rooms of the US Air Force while flying RB-66s out of Germany and England. He left the USAF to prepare for the Roman Catholic priesthood with the Basilian Fathers where he studied theology, philosophy and metaphysics at St. Michael's College at the University of Toronto. After five years and falling in love with a raven haired Irish beauty, he decided that a celibate life was not for him. After graduate studies at Canisis College and Buffalo State, he taught at Buffalo State, Humber and Mentor Colleges. In between teaching jobs he was a professional yacht skipper, sailing instructor and boat builder. He wrote Code while living and working on a thoroughbred horse farm in King Township, Ontario where he writes, plays tennis and skis with his twenty-four year old son.
