The hilarious irony —
Lots of problems here.
First, this cute notion “toxic masculinity”. I was doing some research on it, and apparently the origin of the word comes from this loser emasculated guy, ex-military veteran I think, who said that hero worship, men’s striving to become heroes was bad and toxic.
In more recent times, it seems that is mostly women, women and female academics, scholars, writers and opinion think pieces, movie producers, directors etc (the Barbie Movie) who says:
Yes, manliness, masculinity, manliness is toxic. Men should not strive to become dominant, masculine, muscular, and grand.
As a result, the fake ideal of the ideal man becomes this “woke”, progressive, sweet, skinny fat, kind man, who never shows any aggression, is 100% equal to all parties, etc.
Then the problem is as a consequence, the modern day man, who no longer strives to be manly find his manliness elsewhere. Alcohol, drugs, hallucinogens, marijuana, vinyl records, facial hair and mustaches (I call it “Hitler” staches), exotic sports cars, dark tennis sunglasses, baseball hats, anything which hides their lack of manliness.
Then the next step in stage is that this man has such a low testosterone, he can no longer beget children. And decides instead, to adopt a dog instead.
Fertility problems?
OK, once shit hits the fan, and then people grow up and want to have kids, there becomes a big problem with fertility. Based on just my basic observations, it seems that the modern day couple has lots of issues with conception and fertility, my personal theory is it Hass to do with the man having such a low testosterone. As a consequence, modern day couples have all this in vitro fertilization, trips to the fertility clinic which is quite traumatic for the women.
So I suppose the issue is here—
We modern day humans deny our hormones and sexual differences?
What does men do in produce and consume in private?
Seems that a lot of men, in private, when they are locked up at home and they think that nobody’s watching, it’s just lying on their couch, on their phones, whatever watching baseball, sports and hockey, UFC, smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol, turning on their VPN and dipping into Pirate Bay.
Feminism has nothing to do with men
Based on my observations, I think the big misconception about feminism is that it is all about women’s driving to eradicate men. This is actually not the case; I think feminism is about women trying to promote female advancement in the workplace, defying gender norms and beyond. I think this is a good thing. If I had a daughter, I would not want any societal gender roles to hold her back.
Who are men blaming?
I think the modern day man is a bit confused then. He adopts a more “woke” progressive diet, which is mostly “plant based“, limiting his consumption of meat and red meat, maybe he buys and eats chicken breast, or salmon thinking that it is “good for him”. He talks about saving the planet and whatever, yet he still purchases things on Amazon prime, is always keen to upgrade his Audi, or increase his vinyl LP record library. Or buy more plants.
The other men?
Where is the rest of the men?
Living here in LA has been insanely fascinating for me, both from a sociological perspective, and a practical one.
First, all of the rich successful men in LA all seem to either be really really short, really really old, really really bald, or anemic. I think the other day at the holmby Hills Park, I think I might’ve seen Jimmy Iovine, walking around the park, very very short and old looking, with a white baseball cap, and white clothes, looking very weak.
How men strive to be dominant in LA?
I think LA men are a bunch of losers. They tried to hide behind their 100% limit tinted cars, or in real life with their 100% tendance sunglasses, their facial hair, their Hitler mustaches, their baseball caps, their frumpy flan, their baggy clothes, whatever.
Some of them drive exotic sports cars, Ferraris, maybe Lamborghinis, Porsche 911s, Mercedes-Benz AMG wagons— and apparently their pseudo manliness is actually their antisociability.
