2. Zitate zum Thema Männer und Männerliteratur (engl.) / Men and Men's literature
2.1 Zitate – Männerinitiation von Fr. Richard Rohr / Male spirituality / Initiation
- The males of most cultures will ordinarily define themselves by external performance, self created ordeals, and ego affirming tasks – unless they are offered a very real inner world and larger outer world that is even more alive and challenging. […] Older cultures seemed to assume that unless the male is led on deliberate journeys of powerlessness, he will normally seek and abuse power. The only external power that you can trust is in men who have also found their real inner power. Power it seems is the key fascination in the male soul and in every male archetype. It does not go away by churchy preaching or cultural poverty. It just takes disguised and different forms and finally comes back to defeat most worthwhile projects or worse, keeps them from ever getting started. If the male does not experience his power and his possibilities, if he does not let others educate it and tame it, power needs/ego needs tend to control his whole agenda. It does not go away. Primal cultures understood this to an amazing degree, and they took steps to insure that it would not keep happening and subverting their community. Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Made not Born: Men and Power, presented by Malespirituality.org, July 2003
- Masculine spirituality is not just for men, although it is men who are most likely going to have to rediscover and exemplify it. Strangely, it is an approach that many women are more in touch with today than men. Women have been encouraged and even forced to work on their inner life more than men in our culture. Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988
- In the Chinese view of the universe, it is the yang, or active masculine principle, that is always the necessary complement to yin, the passive feminine principle. For the Judaeo-Christian tradition it is half of the image of God: “God created humanity as a self-image, male and female God created them” (Genesis 1:27). Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988
- Conversion to what? Conversion to what we might call the no-me. By that I mean conversion to the other, the alien, the would-be enemy that we must learn to love. In other words, men must be converted to the feminine, women to the masculine. Maybe that is why God made sexual attraction so compelling. If we are converted to this non-self, everything changes. Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988
- A masculine spirituality would emphasize action over theory, service to the human community over religious discussions, speaking the truth over social graces, and doing justice over looking nice. Without a complementary masculine, spirituality becomes overly feminine (which is really a false feminine!) and characterized by too much inwardness, preoccupation with relationships, a morass of unclarified feeling, and endless self-protectiveness. Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988
- Such a man has life for others and knows it. He does not need to push, intimidate, or play the power games common to other men because he possesses his power with surety and calm self-confidence. He is not opinionated or arrogant, but he knows. He is not needy or bothered by status symbols because he is […] his identity is settled and secure – and within. He possesses his soul and does not give it lightly to corporations, armies, nation-states, or the acceptable collective thinking. Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988
- Saints are people who are whole. They trust their masculine soul because they have met the Father. He (sic!) taught them about anger, passion, power and clarity. He told them to go all the way through and pay the price for it. He shared with them his own creative seed, his own decisive Word, his own illuminating Spirit. They are comfortable knowing and they are comfortable not knowing. They can care and not care without guilt. They can act without success because they have named their fear of failure. They do not need to affirm or deny, judge or ignore. But they are free to do all of them with impunity. The saints are invincible. They are men! Father Richard Rohr, OFM, Masculine Spirituality, September-October 1988

2.2 Zitate (engl.) von Frauen
- Yes, men and boys receive privilege and status from patriarchy, but it is a poisoned privilege for which they pay a heavy price. If traditional, patriarchal socialization takes aim at girls' voices, it takes aim at boys' hearts – makes them lose the deepest, most sensitive and empathic parts of themselves. Men aren't even allowed to be depressed, which is why they engage so often in various forms of self-numbing, from sex to alcohol and drugs to gambling and workaholism. Patriarchy strikes a Faustian bargain with men. Jane Fonda, actress, political activist, Jane Fonda's Speech at the National Women's Leadership Summit, Washington, D.C., 12. June 2003
- Human males, like many other male primates, are instinctively motivated by a drive for status or dominance. The male social world is saturated with behaviors driven by status seeking. Men jostle with each other daily, if not hourly, to gain as much status as they can and to avoid losing the status they have. Judith L. Hand, evolutionary biologist, animal behaviorist (ethologist), novelist, pioneer in the emerging field of peace ethology, author of Women, Power, and the Biology of Peace [2003], The Pivotal Catalyst for Change and Longterm Stability

2.3 Zitate (engl.) von Männern
- [The possibility of the 'wildman' is] the possibility that the deep, nourishing and spirituality radiant energy in the male lies not in the feminine side, but in the deep masculine. [...] Now that so many men are getting in touch with their feminine side, we're ready to start seeing the wildman and to put his powerful, dark energy to use. Robert Bly, poet
- All men are frauds. The only difference between them is that some admit it. I myself deny it. H. L. Mencken
