MALE BONDING

One’s friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

George Santayana

One of the devastating consequences of the constant and hectic froth of activity in our lives is that we have less and less contact with our friends. Friendship is a time for letting our hair down, for reveling in the differences and similarities that have drawn and kept us together. Friendship is a time to remember common histories and to be young bucks frolicking in the fields once more.

When did you last spend time with a friend? Can you even remember the last time you went to a hot-oil wrestling match or hung out on a street corner with a pal, smoking cigarettes and discussing automobiles, women, and condom sizes, not necessarily in that order?

What a shame that as employed adults we have placed work over friendship and have come to treat our friends the way our wives treat us—kind of like stale bread that we haven’t gotten around to making into croutons yet.

Strike a blow for brotherhood. Organize a circle jerk.
