Chapter 2 uses the history of a lesbian actress as a way to demonstrate the fragility of overly masculine men he calls Marshall manliness as a hollow and dangerous thing as compared to a more tempered and responsible kind of masculinity. He connects manifest density to Marshall manliness and how that leads to the civil war

Chapter 2 was wonderful.
