Everyone is talking about this book but I don't know why. Eldredge presents this idea of men being constrained by society and thus being wimps. He gives us crap about finding our wildness in our hearts all the while saying that women just want to be rescued etc. Thinking like this can only be termed as sexist. A strong word yes, but unfortunately authors and speakers such as Eldredge have only helped to promote sexism and gender stereotyping. What if a man does not want to be wild, what if he likes being nice? What if a woman does not want to be rescued? Well, according to Eldredge we are outside of God's plan and need to take care of our "wounds." Please, please, please don't waste your time with this book and read a good motivational book like "Blue Like Jazz" by Donald Miller.
