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 …
Visakan Veerasamy added,
What QC is asking for is a very improbable niche-within-niche thing where the “unit economics” don’t work. Like 1% of straight guys might be interested in “Masculine Spirituality”, and the framing is so contaminated that barely anybody worth talking to is going to touch it
wasn't asking for it, think the disparity is interesting and i like these takes on it. i think you're right that the sort of corresponding masculine impulse expresses itself in other ways, no nut november is a legitimately good example
Ah yeah- Asking *about* / pointing out the absence of
The thing is, the original (feminine spirituality/goddess stuff) exists largely as an essentialized reaction to very essentialized masculine traditions, so it is a little odd to look for X in a reaction to X.
Even religions with more foundational accommodation of masculine/feminine aspects of being in practice run as patriarchies. Like Hinduism has the purusa/prakriti dichotomy and China has yin/yang. Yet the priests of goddess cults like Kali tend to be men.
So women have tended to form heterodox practices that get branded as more “spiritual” precisely *because* they are denied direct participation in the institutions of religion. Men tended not to because they could just participate in the real thing.
The question of what psychological needs were accommodated in each (can male temple priests cry? Can women in “spiritual” heterodoxies enjoy the pageantry of parades?) is distinct and much messier than modern new age lit might imply.
