description
The American Sissy cocoons in a safe, virtual world—Fundadome. He plays with online friendsters and plays with himself, anything to abate the growing anxiety about everything from terrorists to sex and spinach, air and water. He votes for sissy leaders, who lash out at the world like bullies—sissies in tough-guy drag. He's so afraid of death and illness he doesn't really live; instead, he medicates and analyzes. And he's so busy following the lives of the rich and famous, he is too distracted to make a life of his own. “I don't mean sissy as girly man versus manly man,” Strausbaugh says. “This is not about big biceps. It's about shrinking balls. And unless we stop acting like such sissies, soon enough some lean, angry barbarians from somewhere out Beyond Fundadome are going to overrun us, ramming their bayonets in our lard guts like fingers poking the Pillsbury Doughboy, only we won't be giggling.” Strausbaugh leaves no sacred cow untipped. He is as non-partisan as he is a straight shooter, taking equal aim at Democrats and Republicans, gays and straights, the Christian right, and the Darwinic left. But all is not lost. Sissy Nation offers practical strategies for getting back the gumption that made this country great. » Pre-order this book now! |
