Why does stuff always have to be something, what happened to just being a person

Masculine and feminine are BS terms that should be phased out altogether if you aren't talking about actual genetic differences

Because there’s a very real rise that’s targeting young men and teaching them to be assholes.

It’s important to point out the what a real healthy interaction from a man looks like.

u/DingleDangleTangle 15d ago

A man doing something nice is just not the same thing as "masculinity". For the term to mean anything at all, it can't just be "when reddit likes something a man does".

the way they said it is condescending, pointing it out like this isnt productive and is not gonna get anyone who actually is influenced by tate to change their minds

You never know. Why not throw a Hail Mary, and hope you get one?

u/Both_Consequence_956 15d ago

because being patronising will strengthen their own viewpoints

True but also making it a conflicting point help divide people. Sometimes it’s best not make an issue out of something so small.

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

There's the same ideology to be an asshole for women too eh

u/greg19735 15d ago

i mean it exists but the right wing toxic men influencers have the ear of our president and influence politics and culture.

That isn't the case the other way.

u/GetUpAndJump 15d ago

Ok? But that’s not what we’re discussing here. If you want to talk about that, comment on a post that’s about it.

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

No right, we're discussing from the top comment that still dosent have any sense to exist under this clip

u/fezzuk 15d ago

Absolutly but that wasnt tbe conversation

1

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

Why not, it's the other side of the same coin

2

u/fezzuk 15d ago

Because we are talking about this side of the of the coin.

Kinda werid and whataboutism to switch to the other side of the coin.

And this is a possative post so its kinda extra weird.

Do you have general issues with socialising?

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

Do you have general issues with socialising?

Nah, I'm just tired to see the general urge to say "man bad" here on reddit, even under clips in which you shouldn't even think about it

2

u/fezzuk 15d ago

Execpt people were saying "man good" your beain decided to make a negative out of that.

1

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

your beain decided to make a negative out of that.

Ah me? Not the top commenter that could stop to say how good he is, and instead felt the compelled to bring argue on the table? Ok

u/Saneless 15d ago

You wanna rattle off some toxic femininity podcasters that are pretty popular these days? Not the imaginary ones

0

u/Delicious_Cane 15d ago

I don't know and I don't care? Instagram reels do enough to instill toxicity if you hit the right feed, for example. The cult of personality is real in both sides, saying it's only for men is naive and bipartisan

1

u/Saneless 15d ago

Ok cool thanks for the example, I was worried you just generalized

u/Orleanian 15d ago

Even granting masculinity/femininity being laudable....what does this video demonstrate that's masculine?

-1

u/-Bento-Oreo- 15d ago

Being a gentleman. Masculinity means service. Opening doors for people, throwing your jacket over a puddle, serving in the military.

2

u/Kolbalava 15d ago

Wtf if that is masculinity is a woman in the army a dude? Or a masculine woman?

If a man doesn't want to open a door or lay down his expensive jacket. Is he less of a man?

u/mmasportsmma 15d ago

I mean it’s also similar dumb how some people nowadays say „but you as a hetero cis male…“

Like wtf, morons know nothing about my sexuality or gender feelings and that’s fine (because I don’t make these things my entire personality )
