- solipsism 10y agoThe "idle" in the title refers only to being unemployed. George doesn't care what you're doing while "idle" -- the tone of the article is that if you don't have a job you're not a "real man".
- solipsism 10y agoTo those downvoting me -- note the usage of the terms "infantilization" and "emasculation". You don't really have to read between the lines to hear what George is saying, you just need to look those words up.
