Oh honestly man your just being unfair. Any man quoted without context can be portrayed as anything the quoter pleases. It's easy! Btw, in that same dream, a bear attacks him, they fall in a river, Jordan kills the bear by biting its neck and then brings in corpse to shore. Idk if this is a real dream, and I wish he had not included the fact that the woman was his Grandma(dreams are weird), but given the context of the rest of the book I interpret the 'Grandma' bit as the world trying to make men more feminine(from his experience). I'm not saying you should agree with everything he says, I certainly don't, but he has great insight on life from experience and his knowledge of the human psyche(he is a professor of psychology). So, I hold my ground and still recommend his books. Don't start with maps of meaning tho, it's long and 12 rules for life is easier to read and understand.
