Now, from the hinterland of Canada, a nerdy, pseudo-science minded individual invites you to participate in "The Definitive Penis Size Survey" which boldly dares to address the following perplexing questions: what precisely is an "average" penis size? can penis size be correlated with any other attribute? are certain ethnic/racial groups more endowed than others? to what extent are men dissatisfied with their size? Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse Sexual Abuse of Males: Prevalence, Lasting Effects, and Resources Interview with Michael Kimmel Author of 'Manhood in America'. "I think the women's movement has been one of the most powerful movements of our time and it certainly offers enormous possibilities for men as well as women. In part, the argument that I make in my book is that men are terrified of feminism because they are afraid they will lose their ability to prove their manhood. But I believe that feminism offers men enormous possibilities to become more nurturing and caring fathers, friends, partners. One of the writers that I found in my research wrote the following line in 1913, when he decided that he wanted to support women's suffrage and support feminism. 'Feminism will make it possible for the first time for men to be free.'"
