Is Liberalism Killing the Manly Man?

Is Liberalism Killing the Manly Man? » Louder With Crowder:
"Is liberalism killing the real, masculine male? 
It seems that way. 
Keep in mind here, that when I say “man,” I’m not talking about the clichéd embodiment of false machismo who throws back macro-brews, chases skirts and scratches himself in public. 
By “real” I don’t mean someone who has to be tough, brawny or even rough around the edges.
I’m speaking about the ideal of manhood that young boys have upheld in their hearts and minds for generations. 
...In all seriousness, my father (like most fathers) always taught me that a man is someone who stands by his principles, someone who lives with integrity and puts his family before himself. 
That last one is important, because as a young boy, it’s your pops who provides you with security.
The financial, emotional, even physical security of the son rests squarely on the shoulders of his father. 
What could possibly be more manly than providing all of the above for your kin?
...Here’s the problem with the modern, liberal man — he can never fully provide that sense of security for his family, because he doesn’t believe that he can provide it for himself.
Liberals don’t believe in the ultimate concept of self-reliance, which is why they look to the government for stability. 
Extravagant welfare programs, the near impossibility of getting fired on the public dole and an increasingly complicated tax code are all products of the same deeply rooted concept that man cannot provide for himself..."
