Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsJust watched the trailer for Tucker Carlson's "The End of Men". First, I laughed and then
I threw up a little in my mouth.
Tucker is concerned that men today do not have enough testosterone. His film communicates this by showing nude or semi-nude male hunks exercising, bathing and, apparently, getting their crotch "recharged" from a glowing appliance of some sort!
I wish I was kidding.
The very thought that Tucker is some sort of authority on "what makes a man" is beyond silly.

(60,320 posts)Does he interview Madison Cawthorn on the topic of enduring marriage and raising little monster men?
Did he show pictures of shirtless putZin?

(34,980 posts)The guy is getting it's red light therapy, which is featured elsewhere in that creepy video. Pro athletes and others use it for pain relief and general therapy after competition and hard trainingg. They're basically "re-charging" their tissues. If you watch the video again, you'll notice one of those half-naked musclemen standing in front of a wall of red lights. IMHO, that guy shining the light on his junk is treating his man parts after using them in manly-man ways. His abundant testosterone has worn out his manhood by having so much sex (with women, of course) that he needs the red light therapy on it.

(6,115 posts)The problem is, there is far TOO MUCH testosterone running rampant in insecure little boys like Tucker.
Think about it: does a confident man ever worry about testosterone levels in his peers? Or himself, for that matter?
Way to show the world just how small your dick is, Tucker.

(103,792 posts)If he gets everyone to use that glowy thing and it shrinks their youknowwhats, he'll have a bigger one.
He must hold stock on those OTC testosterone pills they sell at wallywerld. Gotta wonder what's really in that stuff.
And...
You know that if he told his apostles to hook their youknowwhats up to a 12V battery they would.

Well I guess it is fair to say that a man who gets up in the morning and spends an hour putting on his makeup and fixing his hair may be leaning towards the feminine side. Yo, trump know anything about that.

(4,552 posts)One that the right and schmucker would object to. I know that insult about trump works. My republican friends hate that line. I think it is a very good line of attack.
To me it is actually funny what some people think is necessary for their appearance.

(20,397 posts)That is a verified fact. Exposure to chemical pollution has caused a sharp drop in testosterone and sperm counts over the past 50 years. It has the potential to become a very serious issue in a few decades, with fertility problems increasing.
If Tucker were really concerned though, he'd lobby for a stronger EPA instead.

(4,523 posts)From what I see on a daily basis living in a pretty high maga country there is plenty of angry spoiled adults of both sexes.
They seem to be having melt downs on a daily basis.
I would imagine toxic stress is a big factor, but I don't discount the role of our pesticide, hormone, processed chemical laden food supply.

(20,397 posts)Apparently we're just getting more efficient at using brain power, so we're evolving smaller, more compact brains.
Whereas lower sperm counts don't make us more fertile.

(991 posts)by reading the news on any given day, there sure is overwhelming evidence to convince me that humans have not evolved much in tens of thousands of years.

(225 posts)paying attention to the likes of Carlson is giving him and fox news exactly what they want. I've never watched the channel, even if it's on at airports and such. Many of you will say that I'm burying my head in the sand and avoiding what the other side is up to but that's not true. I stay engaged in all elections and participate in civil rights matters, etc., which goes against things GOP.
My world here in Maryland doesn't even mention the likes of fox, et al. It's about taking care of business and setting things right with the wayward Supreme Court, voting and abortion rights.
The other side has its host of Deplorables, which aren't coming back. It's done. It's a new day, so treat it as such.
Going to be one heck of a battle taking on 400 plus years of the establishment. Dr King fought until his death....why not the rest of us.

So, after I recharge the old crotch, then what? Some ivermectin? A glass of urine tea? Followed by wrapping my head up snugly in tin foil!
Yes, that's it...
On edit: Okay, I had to watch the trailer. Yep. That crotch recharger is some deal! I still don't know what to say. I suppose ridiculous might do it...
