So, Monica Potts: When’s the Wedding?

In the American Prospect, Monica Potts gets all sarcastic about Kay Hymowitz’s new book, Manning Up: How the Rise of Women Has Turned Men Into Boys., describing Hymowitz’s thesis: Hymowitz argues that a generation of parents who spent their time empowering girls has left men adrift and unable to understand their proper place in society.
