Id rather have the definition of "average" than masculinity

Posting on gamefaqs automatically multiplies masculinity by 3
---

As always I am just slightly more masculine than the one asking this question.
---

Prob quite true.
---

I honestly think the answer might be the third one

30 years ago the answer would easily be the first one though.

Social media is siphoning all the manliness from the world

Bumpo.

I voted middle, but thinking about it, I build things with tools and do home/lawn improvements every weekend, so actually above average.
---

Came in to say this. All the men I've been surrounded with have been tip toeing and really pansy-ing it up lately. So afraid to say what's on their mind or get up and do something. Obsessed with feelings. #metoo has retracted many gentlemen's penises back into their groin holes.

Yeah, REAL MEN rape, harass and sexually abuse people

What the fuck is this shit?
---

Female, and when I've taken online tests about brain gender I'm like...absolutely generic average for a woman too.

So...I guess less masculine than the typical man.

What the fuck? Wow way to really twist my words into something disgusting. I'm dumbfounded how you got from A to Z on that one.

I just meant that most men will be even scared to call a woman "hot" anymore for fear of some kind of sexist backlash in the #metoo era. Statements like "Wow she has an incredible body" is met with "Way to think with your penis." and such.

The fact that your mind went there first is a little disturbing.

You really can't see how bashing #metoo and male empathy is seen as supporting sexual assault?

You want to be able to bash feminism and insult rape victims without anyone calling you out. That's not masculine, that's childish and dumb as fuck. You're a little boy vomiting words on the internet. Try hitting puberty and come back.

I...what? Is this a prank? How are my words being twisted so fiercely? I never said anything even close to any of that.

Holy cow. Stay internet, internet.

Gender is a social construct meant to keep the patriarchy in charge.

If you truly meant no harm, then you should work on how you word things. From an outside perspective, it looks much different than from your known personal intent.

And if you were actually just trolling... lol

I'm feeling incredibly insulted, think it's time to take a little break from this.

Your continued insistence on pushing the blame onto others is part of it yea

Do... Do you actually even know what the #metoo movement is or means?
---

I'm not confident enough I actually am more masculine than the average to vote the third option just to make that clear-- honestly the second option is probably right nowadays, with the masculinity being more polarized than it used to be and me just happening to fall somewhere in the middle now

If the poll was if I was more masculine than Neonreaper I'd vote yes in a second though

so which is the truth??

attacking wgz is really stupid and pretending that #metoo is exclusively about addressing sexual harassment (I would argue its not even about addressing rape) is just feigned ignorance. You can value traditional masculinity and not want women to feel unsafe.

What?? Then what is it about?
---

It's about shining light on the lack of comfort women (And to an extent, men) feel during certain interactions, and trying to create a more mindful society. Sexual harassment is obviously a huge part of it, but not every "metoo" story is about someone who was sexually harassed, and not every metoo story is about a man who needs to change their behavior.

If you're not actually reading up on it or engaging in discussions its very easy to see it as "women ask men to stop being men, men reluctantly agree without argument" because those are the types of stories that are the loudest if you're not participating in the discourse.

Then there are also cases of men making women uncomfortable despite them not doing anything malicious or sexual, these are of course important stories for acknowledging and changing male behavior and opening up discussion, but if you're on the outside its very easy to hear a fractured more extreme version of the basic moral like "It's never ok to comment on a woman's looks" or "you should never acknowledge a woman you don't know walking on the street"
---

And of course there are those who actually ARE extreme in the movement, people who want to broaden the scope of whats considered wrong so they can gain power, or people who are overly sensitive and not capable of dealing with their internal issues so they choose to blame external forces. These people are common in pretty much every movement, but I think social justice groups specifically have a hard time drawing the line between "giving the wrong person a voice" and "silencing another's pain"

Which is fair, I don't know where that line is and I'm not going to pretend I know
---

It's one thing if wg just spoke up about over-reacting to the #MeToo movement. There can be an argument for that -- not one I'm crazy about, but sure, there are fair points to be made.

Insulting along the way, however -- men pansy'ing it up and having their dicks retract -- suggests a condescending lack of nuance. I can see why that post got pounced on.

I think wg probably worded his post poorly, and it doesn't help he got more into a defensive mode than clarifying mode after that...but I don't think those accusations against him were what he wanted to insinuate. It's a good lesson to be mindful in the future about how to present a point on a touchy subject.

Also, Tarvauld's Quest is fine and dandy, dunno why I see jabs at his streams here ocasionally.

Actually 2007. :P And it's also just a symptom. These processes take a while.

Man, thank goodness for those ONLINE TESTS! If not for them, I wouldn't even know if I'm a man or a woman... lmfao, the absolute state of some people today.

Both. Because they're obsessed with other people's supposed feelings, as globalist propaganda keeps brainwashing them to be. People must just ditch msm - and opinions influenced by it - entirely and breathe free.

"Supposed" as in you try to guess them, and then you're supposed to censor yourself if you believe they might have negative feelings. This is what globalist media tries to make people do. Which is profoundly anti-human.

is your name wg64Z now because that's the only way i'd give a shit about your response to my question to him

I'm the manliest man to ever man up. When other men pour back some beers, I pour back the whole damn bar. When other men get out of the lawn mower, I just tell the long grass to get a damn haircut and it always listens. Other men change a flat tire, I just push the piece of shit home, faster that way anyway. I'm so manly the friction from my chest hair routinely sets my shirts on fire. Get on my level.

Oh so he's just spouting harmful nonsense because of ignorance

That makes it better? We should put on our baby gloves and carefully lead him through life and give the maximum benefit of the doubt because he is too lazy to research stuff himself? Ignorance makes this wayyy worse. Hopefully he learns about it though and improves.

Talk about pansy-ing it up (if by pansy you mean like a scared child). He gets criticized once and then shuts down to cry, and then it's OUR responsibility to pick him up and caress him and take care of him?
