Rarely have I read anything in the Formerly Gray Lady so amusing as this interview with Harvey Mansfield regarding his new book, Manliness (Hubby's reading now; my turn next. Can't wait.) Is there anything as amusing as watching a learned man deliberately pop a feminist journalist's gaskets?
When was the last time you did something that required physical strength?
It's true that nothing in my career requires physical strength, but in my relations with women, yes.
Such as?
Lifting things, opening things. My wife is quite small.
What do you lift?
Furniture. Not every night, but routinely.
