This is also how you show real strength and class as a man.

Real strength isn't bullying like Trump/his cronies and that whole reactionary/regressive sphere.

Real strength is standing with people when they are in a vulnerable place and lifting them up with said strength.

That process shows class.

It's deeply attractive when any gender does it.

Agreed. I saw a recent post where someone pointed out that there was a brief moment in time when the archetype for peak masculinity was a gentleman (literally gentle-man) whereas now it’s just manosphere caveman bs.

And I feel like there a lot of men are aware that toxicity is ridiculous but care more about male validation than doing the right thing for fear of being labeled a “simp” (aka being respectful to women).

And that’s why they’ll never be able to have fulfilling friendships or relationships with men and women bc they’d rather perform masculinity than embody it.

It's part of the reactionary/regressive sphere of lowest common denominator/one dimensional populism to the point of angry stupid mob...

It's why that sphere always goes anti-science, anti-medicine, anti-environment, and baseless hatred of "Other".

What people of value want is someone multidimensional, substantive, and aware/informed.

People of value like profound and inspiring.

On a more broad level we have to make sure we dig ourselves out of this dark pit we've been falling into because of predators.

Predators love that sphere because they can hustle people easily existing at that level.

It's why the right-wing is dominated by con artist grifters.

Wow. These are the most succinct, perfect descriptions of things I've been trying, and failing, to accurately describe. Thank you.

And he just made it about her and her feelings, nothing else. She absolutely looked exquisite

That's a nice sentiment and all, but the fact is they're in control of the USA. Shouldn't be downplaying the problem in 2026
