    The Birth Of a Man

    by Monet to the abstract work from Picasso. However‚ Salvador Dali painted a piece that I find most incredible called‚ “A Boy Watching the Birth of a Man.” The painting itself really shows us what life was like after WWII‚ and what it could have been like if USA hadn’t have won.

He describes masculinity as “having to wear an ill-fitting coat for one’s entire life (in contrast femininity is nakedness).” What I believe he means by this is that every man must cover themselves up with a layer of manliness and toughness in order to be a man. Throughout the essay Theroux reinforces his hate for manliness
