Rob's House Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 It seems the new masculine ideal is for men to be a bunch of soft, sensitive, emotional pu$$ies. I see it everywhere. And before some pu$$y jumps in here with a strawman (i.e. The only alternative to being an emasculated pissant is to be a super dominant male monkey mother!@#$er) let me explain what I mean. In my mind, masculinity is having the strength and courage to set emotion aside to think and act rationally and appropriately, from a reasonabe perspective, even in the face of fear or other conflicting emotions. It has little to do with willingness to resort to violence or unwillingness to show compassion. It seems anytime anyone does anything that offends our sense of justice there's a huge overreaction, the story gets overblown, people get nauseatingly sanctimonious, and any measure of perspective goes out the window. What really bothers me is the extent to which the reaction of grown men so often resembles what you might expect from a 13 year old girl.

Azalin Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 the 90's taught men that it's okay to cry, and to not be afraid to show their feminine side. it's all been downhill ever since.

I'll let you know how I feel about this by passing LA Billz a note in study hall...

Jauronimo Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) It seems the new masculine ideal is for men to be gay and/or androgynous vampires with silly hats and thick rimmed glasses. I see it everywhere. Fixed. Edited November 20, 2013 by Jauronimo
Chef Jim Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I manage a guy (400lb gay guy) and we were talking about his time management issues. I said the first step was to at the end of the day jot down what he did and how much time he spent on each task. He thought I was accusing him of slacking off and he started to cry. Not small tears kind of whimpering but full on snot running down his face bawling. WTF dude?!?!?!?! Oh and he's 47 years old. I get "well you're different, you're from NY" all the time. Uhhhh, I left NY in 1982 at the age of 21. I could make a fortune with a testicle location service up here in the Bay Area.

Without those, you seem to be showing the exact same character traits you proclaim to loath

Wait, you're surprised that a gay guy started to cry when he thought you were accusing him of slacking?
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 We live in the age of misbegotten self esteem. I don't think it's a men vs. women, masculine vs. feminine issue.
GG Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 You mad, bro? Nope. Just looks like you're starting an unsanctioned PPP Showdown thread.
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Look up. Ha! Asking questions is your MO! So it's really an indictment of you.
Chef Jim Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Ha! Asking questions is your MO! So it's really an indictment of you. Oh I'm sorry do I make you cry when I ask you questions?
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Oh I'm sorry do I make you cry when I ask you questions? I misunderstood your comment there. I apologize. And no, thought you meant something else. Still, our society isn't a crying 400 pound gay guy
Chef Jim Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I misunderstood your comment there. I apologize. And no, thought you meant something else. Still, our society isn't a crying 400 pound gay guy No it's a bunch of apologetic pantywaists like you.
DC Tom Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 No it's a bunch of apologetic pantywaists like you. To be fair, reptileguy is completely unapologetic about being a pantywaist.
Chef Jim Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 To be fair, reptileguy is completely unapologetic about being a pantywaist. Hard to apologize for something you're not aware of.
DC Tom Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Hard to apologize for something you're not aware of. Yeah, because you've never apologized to your wife and had no idea why.
