TheArtofManliness is a great site with a plethora of info on reclaiming one's masculinity that society has diminished. I saw this featured piece on how struggle and danger actually breeds innovation and manly energy within a society, and it explains that a society that becomes too prosperous is a precursor a collapse. The lack of external necessity (hunting, gathering, fighting the neighboring tribe) renders men complacent and lazy. Thought it was relevant to trp we've woken up to the fact that we live in a soft society that demonizes masculinity. Commodities and conveniences that no king could've dreamed of are now available to most consumers (air conditioning, cars, etc.) and feminism has held the narrative that men are just dopes and any manliness exerted is sexism.
