Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsA current MAGAT line of attack is that Doug Emhoff and Tim Walz are insufficiently masculine.
Because clearly the truest exemplar of pure, testosterone-laden studliness is a deranged, saggy-assed prick who takes four hours every morning having his ridiculous comb-over touched up and cemented into place, another hour having his bronzer troweled on, would finish eleventh in a ten-man beard growing contest, and needs at least a C-cup to contain his man boobs.

(25,048 posts)You know, the ones that depict Trump as Superman or Rocky or an astronaut? I think that a great many MAGAs actually see him that way. They are so deluded that hes drawn them deep into the vortex of his manufactured reality.
Pathetic.

(96,942 posts)The whole what a woman is, what a man is bullshit that has done nothing, absolutely nothing, besides bring harm to the women and men who don't meet some assholes definition of what it means to be a woman or a man or how ever a person defines themself.
It's a spectrum people, a fucking spectrum, and people are all over it from end to end and every spot throughout the in between.
People who claim someone is insufficiently masculine or insufficiently feminine can blow it out their ass.

(1,719 posts)The male gender is being suffocated by toxic masculinity, and there is a shortage of good role models for men, especially white men, in modern society. It's not only good for men, but also the women that they are around! There is a shortage of good, competent and attractive men in this world for women after all, and a big part of the problem is toxic masculinity.

(1,284 posts)And grifting with strength.
When was the last time Donald Trump finished a sentence without whining? I cannot recall an instance. His very cadence is whiny.
JD Vance is offended by a question asking what makes you smile? Yeah. He is one tough fella.
Tucker Carlson proclaims that real men tan their testicles (the better to get testicular cancer?).
Ted Cruz is proclaiming himself bipartisan while simultaneously trying to decipher how best to lower himself before his idol Trump.
Rick Scott suddenly believes perhaps we should see why storms are getting worse while refusing to read any of the evidence already gathered about why storms are getting worse.
These are certainly examples of some serious cringe 😬 behavior. They are not examples of manly behavior from anywhere in our history, literature or common experience.
These men are not heroic. Heck, they are not even anti-heroes. They are just grifting their lives away while whining irritably nearly every second.

(19,373 posts)Because, for example, Walz checks all the usual RWer masculinity standards:
Married to a cis-gender woman
Fathered biological children
Always employed
Military service
Football coach
Gun owner
Hunter
Dog owner
But if assholery is what MAGAts mean by masculinity then yeah TCF is masculine as hell and Walz is not.

(360 posts)In most species, males display for the female of the species. Most would call this "showing off for the girls".
For some odd reason, maggot men display for other maggot men. This vying for the attention of other neck bearded men underlines their latent homosexual tendencies.
There is no alpha in species Homo sapiens.

That's a pretty messed up view of masculine.
