In 1976, Brannon summarized the four basic rules of masculinity in The Forty-Nine Per Cent Majority which consisted of “No Sissy Stuff, Be a Big Wheel, Be a Sturdy Oak, Give ‘em Hell” (Kimmel, 2009, pg. 464).

unaffectionate environment quickly shows as Louisa denies Sissy’s love for her. After her father advises her to consider love “simply as one of tangible Fact” (102), Louisa becomes “impassive, proud and cold--held Sissy at a distance” (107), completely ignoring the previous wonder she had about Sissy. As Louisa blindly follows her father’s advice, marries Bounderby, and takes pride in separating herself from Sissy’s fancy and care, she becomes aloof and unresponsive like her mother. The news of her mother’s

A child with no imagination is like an Earth without wildlife. Cold, boring, and desolate. Dickens cleverly names the three sub books in Hard Times Sowing, Reaping, and Garnering.

confession as she collapses at her father's feet declaring, "All that I know is, your philosophies and your teaching will not save me,"(Dickens 218). Bounderby is brought down through his losing Louisa and the disclosure of Mrs. Pegler by Mrs. Sparsit. Sissy and Stephen remain to be the moral component of Dickens' work. Sissy's hold on imagination is proven a necessity of life and is what the products of the utilitarian education seem to lack. Stephen's portrayal of a virtuous man of the working

Using the concept of the “glass escalator” (Ridnor,7 ), the “no sissy stuff” (Ridnor, 5), and “theoretical perspective” (Macionis, 15) (Ridnor, 2) such as “functionalist” (Macionis,16) (Ridnor, 2) perspective, and “conflict theorist” (Macionis, 17) (Ridnor, 2-3) perspective from lectures.
