Is being a man really all about hot sex and six pack abs?
If you read all the typical mens magazines, that’s the impression you might have.
Luckily there are still some thinking men out there.
Brett McKay from The Art of Manliness is leading a revolution among men. He’s helping a modern generation define manliness on a much deeper and more meaningful level. Art of Manliness helps men acquire new skills and become self-reliant, two things not as common as they once were.
Brett’s story is a must listen for any guy who wants more from life than to be ripped, drive a sports car and hook up with lots of hotties.
Today on the Expert Enough Show, we grill Brett McKay the founder of The Art of Manliness to find out what it really means to be a man in 2012.
We also dig in to figure out exactly how Brett became an expert on manliness, and how he has built a following of over 125,000 subscribers at his blog.
It’s an incredible story you won’t want to miss.

I’m a feminist and I loved this! I stand behind the art of manliness- virtue is something everyone should cultivate…dig it!
Great interview, Corbett!
Love, love, love this interview. I’ve been an AOM fan for quite some time now and appreciate what Brett and Kate do there. I also interviewed Brett a while back and truly enjoyed him as a gentlemanly man.
Also, Corbett, I’ve been following you for a bit now too, and find your site to be fun and uplifting.
I feel blessed to have found both of you guys.
Love the idea of manliness being virtue. It’s cool to think of manliness as an internal reality vs. things we own or certain activities that we participate in.
I’m such a huge fan of The Art of Manliness, and this is a wonderful interview.
