Women on the Right especially love Peterson because he tells men to man up — see the “Tragic Story of the Man-Child” — and that’s why a lot of men abhor his take-it-or-leave-it call to manhood. More mature members of the millennial or Generation X generations appreciate reading or listening to his no-nonsense advice rooted in common sense and psychological underpinnings — which is exactly what most of the younger generations can’t stand. All this is why America needs this Canadian, and why he has become an “overnight” sensation that has been brewing for decades…

With tales of Peter Pan and life experience to back his advice, Peterson tells men in a straightforward way to stop dilly-dallying and man up, to eschew laziness, and to “grow the hell up.” Likewise, Peterson speaks thoughtfully and controversially about women, the gender wage gap, and why society still should hold motherhood (that most archaic and delicate of “positions”) in high regard.
