    Yeah, but that's not a bad thing. It's better than acting masculine but feeling like shit about yourself. Who cares if they are anyway?

      So it's better to act feminine and feeling shit about yourself?

        No I meant that it's better to act how you feel on the inside (in this case feminine), than to pretend to be someone you're not. Otherwise you'll just feel like shit about yourself.

        I mean yeah there are more feminine men today, but that's only because years ago feminine men only acted masculine, even though they felt feminine on the inside. And that made them feel like shit about themselves because they couldn't express themselves, they couldn't even admit to themselves that they were feminine without feeling deep shame. And who cares if they are feminine nowadays anyway?

          I think you're half right. I think the like overall percentages are basically the same but we just have so many people now compared to like 50 years ago and we have the internet and such so it's a lot more common to actually see them...and that is coming from a person that is trans and super effeminate. Like I am out here in the midwest and I grew up in a small town, I was literally the only one and there was no other signs from anyone that they were and I was actually a bit more feminine than most of the girls out here.

  • On the contrary, women just don't have to pretend to be pussies to tickle male ego anymore.

    The gap is closing, but since it's women who're finally allowed to act normal, the men seem stranger.

    Masculinity is often labeled "toxic". Women do really desire masculine men, despite what the movies and tv shows say. You can't undo biology.

      My wife dresses me up with make up and all and we go out in public dancing 💃 and she who gets hit on by the guys in the clubs. She loves it when guys flirt with me. And so do I enjoy their attention. When we get home she peggs me until I cum . 😜 She knows I want want cock . And says she is preparing me for when she finds the right guy for our pleasure. Anticipation is driving me nuts literally.

    I think men are becoming afraid to speak their mind and display classically "masculine" qualities due to the extreme end of feminism having such a disproportionately large voice in mainstream media.

    I don't necessarily think that makes them soft though. Just... Downtrodden? Stifled? Someone throw me a thesaurus lol

      • SwickDinging

        I just mean that a certain rhetoric has entered the media that shouts down men and devalues their opinions - "male privilege" is a good example, because that basically means any criticism a man has of feminist ideologies or proposed changes in law can be disregarded because of his gender, IE his opinion is less valid because he's male.

        I know most people don't think all that rubbish but some of the extreme branches of feminism do and we hear about it a lot so men could feel it's not acceptable to express any opinion that goes against it.

        Also trying to be protective or traditionally genteel/masculine towards women could now be met with anger for some people. As in, some women find it patronising or offensive if a man wants to hold a door open for her, or fight her corner when someone bigger than her is being aggressive towards her etc. Again, it's not all women, and it's not necessarily a bad thing, but if some women responded that way when a man has acted like this then it might be enough to make him think "shit, girls really don't like it when you try and be protective/hold doors open for them etc, maybe I should stop doing it so I don't offend anyone else". Traditionally it would be a man's role to do those things, so you might say the loss of those things would be him being less traditionally masculine.

        Personally I think we're all individuals with equally valid opinions who can act how we want, and who the fuck really cares. But then again I'm married now so I think about it much less than I used to when I was dating/single.

        I hope I've explained all this properly, I've got baby brain at the moment and it's pretty hard to concentrate lol

            No worries, usually when I express these opinions online people assume I'm a man trolling everyone to try and make women look bad. Doesn't feel great. Thanks for actually listening to my view point and treating it as valid.

          Thank you I get what your saying I don't fully agree with it but I could see where you were coming from.

          Hell I even agreed with some of it especially individualism is a good thing as well as radical feminists who take things to far anything that is radical tends to do that which is bad.

          Also I feel things should be open to criticism because it's a way to fix things there is always room for improvement.

          Weird thing is I hold doors open for many women and I have never got a negative response all of them are thankful that I did it.

          Mind you I don't do it because I'm a man or anything traditional wise it's just something I do.

            Yup, holding doors open for people is polite, and most people generally do it for everyone.

            However I do remember a time when I was younger (I'd say between 5-10 years ago) where women I encountered would quite commonly say that they didn't need a man to hold a door for them, and gleefully tell stories of how rude they had been to men who held a door for them. I can't tell if this was just lies to engraciate themselves with other women, or young girls getting overexcited about feminism, or maybe it was just a phase that people have moved on from now.

            To be honest I think it's really hard for a lot of people to judge stuff like this on a wider level because we all have access to certain social circles and walks of life, so I think anyone's experience is going to be very unique and can't be taken as a full picture with which to judge a whole gender. For example your question specifically asks about USA, and I'm English so... What do I really know about this?

            Really interesting question though, you've sparked one of the more fruitful debates on this website.

    Yes men are. I don’t know what the hell this tight wearing shit is and wearing clothing that belongs to females is about but it needs to stop. All these young kids and grown men walking around looking like assholes!

    Soft is not even the word to describe it. To me it seems men are acting more and more like women. While women and becoming more aggressive than men.

    Kinda yeah, ironically it’s “MRAs” and the like that are basically trying to convince everyone that men are now victims (of “feminism”) and need protected against women due to being socially weaker, thus taking their place as “second class citizens”

    Yes, and women are becoming more like men. I miss those sirens from the 1950s and 60s who could turn a man on just by walking by. Sexy walk and sexy talk, mini skirts, and tight ass jeans, halter tops, bikinis and red lipstick. Where are those women at? Lost in time? What I see around my area now are women with weight issues and bland hair styles. Also one other thing while I'm here, why are so many women dying their hair blond? Everywhere I go all I see are blond haired women with brown or black eyebrows and dark roots. We men love all colors of women's hair, not just blond! It's all a plot to destroy the human race, and I'm not kidding. Why else would they (mainly the media) be pushing gay and lesbian down our throats?

      The women who want to dress like that are probably afraid of judgement now. I think in our pursuit to become a judgement free society we have become even more judgemental than ever before. It's a minefield, who even knows what is and isn't acceptable anymore

    Undoubtedly. We live in a time of unprecedented effeminacy and degeneracy. The one good things is that if we are invaded then at least the men are weak enough to be kept alive as sex slaves too.

    Men are becoming more feminine or are both sexes feeling more free to be who they want to be instead of following rigid gender roles? If a man wants to be masculine and a female wants to be feminine, that's cool. But some males and females don't feel they need to abide by those standards and want to be who they want to be. So what if a guy wants to wear certain clothes not traditionally seen as masculine or a woman wants to participate in activities that are deemed masculine? Is society going to crumble?

    Also, If you want to do all that cringy "gentlemen" shit where you run around the side of your car to open a door for a woman or pull out her chair at dinner, knock yourself out. I just don't feel that I'm less of a man for not wanting to do any of that. I'd rather date the girl that gives me the weird look for trying to do that than some fucking princess who expects that of me.

    I agree as a man because shopping for me is not a huge problem, strapon play and trans women also turn me on, and I don’t fight with friends on street or anything suler masculan.

    But I feel totally as a man. I love women, I love sports, cars and I hate washing dishes.
    Just getting little more femminine..

    I hope you all got my point!

      So being stuffed by strapons and trans cocks is manly while doing the dishes is not?

            Btw, I think it is not a problem that mens are not that “super masculin” theese days.
            Of course they are men, like cars, watches, football and all but genders are getting closer a little bit.
            So relationships are getting little bit easier, better by time.

            It’s only my point of view!

    For some reason, people really seem to be afraid of this. A man in heels or a dress? What's wrong with it? He's likes it, he's comfortable and not hurting anyone. There's nothing wrong with it.

  • So going into a convience store today I am walking in front of a very attractive woman, I hold the door open for her. Not even a thank you to be polite. She did not even acknowledge I was breathing the same damn air as her, we all knew her oxygen was more important than anyone else's. At least say thank you damn it. I would have held the door for a less attractive grandma or any other female so please dont think it's because your pretty. Just say thank you, like we all were taught to do as kids.
