What is the modern definition of "masculinity?"
ghostrek replied to scoobdog's topic in General Discussion
I do agree with you there I am projecting my shit on greater Humanity -
The delusional thinking of the two perpetrators where simultaneously caused by their respective mental illnesses they both have And I'm going to say a misguided and almost well-live religious belief system around Slender Man obviously I As someone who is a science fiction and pop culture enthusiast myself who has mental illness and learning disabilities, I have encountered people who go full-fledged believing something to the same level of religious belief Delusional people do not have rational belief systems Believing something that on an intellectual level is fictional and believing something is real despite knowing it's fictional on an emotional level are fundamentally two different things That type of thinking is akin to paranoia or paranoid thinking of some kind Not trusting the world wound you and believing a delusion paranoia has to play a role into that

Actually I agree with that one We do one romanticize the past But in fact the past was just screwed up as today But yeah a lot of men do want not a partner and a true equal in a relationship but a babysitter or Mommy figure that they can have sex with sounds like a variant of the Oedipus Complex to me I think most of these men think they're on weaker footing than anyone else in society -

@scoobdog @Vamped I was saying yes my humanity is stolen from me in the sense. As someone who is a history buff knowledgeable about world affairs at least better than most people, I know in real life Due to my neurodiversity automatically thinks I'm a fucking idiot yeah there are a lot of men and women without purpose in life That was my point I see with same issue of a lot of women and men And yes I understand her is a lot of men who are being pushed to frankly far-right opinions with not out and out fascist May I deal with a lot of people at my job that I can describe politically as fascist not the original fascist party of Italy but very much a fascist ideology that mixed with a lot of weird Sovereign citizens stuff which okay it sounds crazy but I hear it sorry for get off topic -

I don't know every time I think I found my purpose in life I'm wrong so how in hell I'm supposed to fucking know For a lot of us males, we call that masculinity I just called up my basic Humanity that I felt due to my diagnosis was somehow robbed of me\\ @scoobdog -

Okay I thought you're talking about greater ideals than that like I was philosophy a worldview like the so-called dream the ideals of America that are also reflected in star Trek and arguably Star Wars at least at one point I know a world with no war no crime no murder everyone living at peace type of philosophy No the problem is people aren't living with a purpose and I try to have a purpose and get shit on -

@scoobdog Okay what do you mean by a non-existent ideal? Man talking about the Star Trek thing which I debatable that is not existence I mean fundamentally at at the core of Star Trek is the same idealism that supposedly is at the core of American idealism the whole idea of all was being equal and contributing to society Now what you're saying is about me trying to live up to a non-existent idealism well that's debatable I'm not the proudest man in the world and you know a lot of generally a lot of people say I'm a good man but not a good masculine man which I don't see how in the hell that's an issue\ And finally, the situation to problem I attributed to yes I can see traditional gender roles breaking down but once again I'm from the working class. there a lot of women do a lot of man things in my social class I mean that's always has been and always will be Once again I have met a lot of women who hunt and fish They enjoy it One would think the industry I work in at a local slaughterhouse house and butcher shop is predominantly male the truth is the males do a lot of the hard work and a lot of the office work is done by females hire management stuff and dealing with the state for my experience is really the guy does one thing and the girl does another but both can do both in perfectly well And you're right you're saying about anything else can you care to extrapolate more on my remarks -

@scoobdog @[classic swim] Let's talk about positivity in both no matter what gender or gender identity you are well I see a lot of toxic people no matter what gender they are I try to be positive but you start seeing someone being positive around somebody's toxic or trying to be positive around people who are toxic makes your ass at Target Well I personally blame pop culture for this specifically and you guys will be surprised the Star Trek franchise who teaches that Humanity will improve no matter what your gender is or your gender identity is But most people who are toxic don't view themselves a toxic and you point it out they get hostile But the positive thing is overall i'm part of community's including this one but more importantly me dealing with learning disability and I have came across a lot of people we're learning disabilities and who been in Special Ed more importantly that are less toxic than allistic people so that's a positive. The Mass majority of learning disability people I met are not as toxic as the general population. At least generally I myself I'm wouldn't count myself among them. -

it is complicated to answer. my answer is this it depends on one's religion, social economic status/ social class (the two are not necessarily the same but similar enough) cultural background at times, political affiliation, and region you're from, etc, etc that goes for men and women. And my rural community that are working class. I have seen women do stuff that would be offensive to a lady a Buckingham Palace and that's just normal Behavior. Like chopping wood if you have a wood burning stove for heat if you live in the countryside or hunting or fishing for example which I have met a lot of women who do both for enjoyment Man it wasn't to the late 70s early '80s until what Title 9 became a big deal for women's sports in high school when I was in high school I still heard and I graduated in 2004 a lot of older people saying women are becoming more man-like because of doing sports in high school. So yeah and I do admit there is both toxic masculinity and toxic femininity and you know the whole alpha male bro dude thing yeah it's toxic the men who are and women who are physical or emotional who are abusers are toxic And your karen's and Ken's are toxic More importantly your trad spouses (doesn't matter what your gender identity is)are toxic mostly I don't want to I want to be a stay-at-home spouse when it's not economically feasible do so because you're lazy there's a difference between a trade spouse anna stay home parent. my one stepbrother was a stay-at-home dad his wife made more money than him as a nurse and he raised the children. And he wasn't a weak sissy man either he could kick almost anyone's ass. Okay he did still have jobs Now let's get to people like me as many of you guys know I am possibly on the Spectrum have a few other psychological problems. I'm difficult to deal with generally. I have literally been called a piss poor man for any number of reasons for being getting help from the government to not serving in the military and and the latter one really pisses me off, or that's because I have a disabilities and psychological issues I'm not a real man too many women or other men's eyes and I don't mean that in a sense of sexual attraction although that is a factor sill the idea of I never really can enter into adulthood. @scoobdog @[classic swim] But you know there is such a thing as toxicity no matter what your is gender or your gender identity is. you can be toxic -
