Define what you are talking about if you want to put your stake in the ground so people can respond. What is masculinity as it is commonly understood?

I believe men should be willing to fight for the group. Republicans think it should be every individual for themselves. I believe in myself enough I don't need to surround myself with the same religion/race as me. Republicans are afraid they will be replaced. I believe men should be able to have sex, and that birth control should be legal so they can do that. Republicans don't believe that. I believe in hanging out with my bros. Republicans love to hang out with pretend bros by listening to podcasts.

I believe I should be self sufficient and shouldn't need a surrogate mother to take care of me. So I do my own laundry, I cook, I clean. Like a real grown adult human. I believe enough in myself enough I don't need to sequester my partner away from the world and keep them at home.

These are like THE defining masculine traits. Protect others. Secure in yourself around others. Having sex. Being engaging enough to hang out with. Be self sufficient. Confident enough of yourself not to be jealous/overprotective of your partner or need to keep them hidden away at home. Republicans have none of these.

> I believe men should be able to have sex

So why demonize men for wanting to have sex, with phrases like “men only want one thing”, “sexual objectification”, “entitled incel”, “thought rape”, etc.?

Just so you know, Dems, leftists, progressives or whatever group you identify as will do so much better at appealing to men as a demographic whenever you guys are able to talk about men as a demographic without taking advantage of all these random opportunities to needlessly shit on virgins and short men.
