Manhood rituals have been used for thousands of years across the world to help boys become men. The men of tribes would take young boys away from their mothers and traumatize them until their feminine frame shattered. They would break the boys until they became numb to emotions. After the manhood initiation, the young men could handle 100x more emotional stress without fear, doubt and anxiety. The problem with modern men is they remain boys because their feminine frame was never shattered.
