      Umm. That’s every traditional religious book and the entirety of most organized religious institutions and theology schools/seminaries. It’s hardly underrepresented.

          I think you’re talking past each other here Goddess/feminine spirituality is a sort of self-starter SMB spirituality thing, which is in defiance of orthodoxy I think QC is trying to talk about the “missing market” of the male equivalent heterodoxy

          In practice, dudes do have their small/localised forms of communion, ritual, meaning - podcasts, video games, sports, alcohol, suits, beards, etc. List goes on. Sometimes dudes will do this sort of thing in a half-ironic way: https://twitter.com/apiecebyguy/status/1192621098116042752?s=21 …https://twitter.com/apiecebyguy/status/1192621098116042752 …

          Nah this ain't it. He's pointing out a trend/imbalance within a subculture. Don't scope creep and lose focus.

          It's a fair point. "Goddess"/new age crap is a reaction to the fact that applied theology in the West is completely and utterly masculine-centric. That there is not also an equal reaction to this reaction isn't indicative of an imbalance.
