Of course, only feminists can say stupid things. And if you say something stupid while not being a feminist you become one? While I agree with science not being a social construct the others can (in my opinion) be seen as such. Gender: Not necessarily the biological one, there are women who see themselves as men due to their mentality and the other way round. Race: Is only a matter of the scale. There is the human race as a whole but you can also call people with different nationalities/cultural background (both human concepts) different races. Intelligence: While it is possible to evaluate an individuals mental capacity in certain areas, it is also a human made scale you use to "calculate" it. (Who is smarter: The chemist, who can tell you everything about chemistry, or the student, who is better at math but worse at chemistry than the chemist?) There are also people who ignore any personal ability and say things like: "Only feminists can be this stupid." (Hmm, where did I hear that?)
@Lunette This is not the definition of gender. Gender is a physical trait based on chromosomes - then you have syndromes for all the anomalies. This is science, and you know it. Gender roles are social constructs, genders is not.
Human are all the same race scientifically speaking, but the genetic disposition we usually define as race (like being black or white), are physical traits not social constructs.
Intelligence is a personal ability. The scale is just that. You illustration about the chemist tells me you know what IQ is. It's NOT knowledge, it's the ability to acquire knowledge and use it.
I didn't say only feminists are stupid, but the views presented are feminist views, hence why I said what I did. All feminists are idiots, but not idiots are feminists.
I know that "gender" is usually the biological term, thus not a social construct, but in my opinion (!) a persons mentality is an important part in being male or female. If someone kidnapped a guy and made him into a biological female through surgery, he would most likely still consider himself a man. But that's just my opinion, in a purely scientifically view you're right. As for the race thingy while it's true that there are the classic races like "black" and "white" there are also differences within humans that are not considered a different race like having red hair or something. There is also the definition of a race as an ethnic group who simply shares the same culture (e. g. "The Swedish race"). This kind of race is (I think) a social construct, since it consists of people who decided to share the same lifestyle. So in this case you just have to take the right definition for it to make sense You already excluded the competition-race out of your spectrum, so it is possible to do.
Well, what I was trying to say is female engineers are a common sight especially with the computer science background and they sure are naturally feminine. It's just that I've seen on gag that lots of folks stereotype women from the engineering background as masculine and not feminine enough. I wonder why.
@Maazin really? Because when I went through for process, my discipline was the only one with a roughly equal m/f ratio. There was only one girl in the comp eng class, and she was the embodiment of all those stereotypes. Nice kid though.

how can you be non conformist while conforming to a 10 point list telling you what it means to be for you to be a man.
This is weird. I really don't understand how you consider these "masculine" traits. They are just good traits.
Absolutely wonderful! Beautiful take.
Thank you :)
Most of them can be done easily by women lol , that's why i believe in just being yourself
I'd it bad that I have more masculine traits (personality) then female traits?
You have a beard 😮😮😮
@Omar5881 I don't habe a beard, i just have more masculine personality traits.
Have*
Decision making then?
@Omar5881 yeah
😮😮😮😮😮😮 that's soo hot
@Omar5881 sure
Still a beard is better 😞
I agree with this one!
Thank you!
Kinda old-fashioned, no?
#8 seriously? Did you get most of this from Buzzfeed or your mom?
Social constructs !!!:
*Gender (chromosomes)
*Race (DNA)
*Science (factual evidence)
*Intelligence (personal ability)
You must be a feminist, only feminists can say south stupid things.
Of course, only feminists can say stupid things. And if you say something stupid while not being a feminist you become one?

Good one.
Nice Take.
Thank you.
I agree, this is all essential to being truly masculine
Every single one of those qualities except the beard are not unique to men. This mytake is garbage.👎🏼
Let that hyper-sensitive, Male feminist beta rage flow out! Before you have a crying fit or something.
I love it when you idiots say "beta male" to someone on the freaking Internet. Pleas, say that in person to me bud
Disagree with him and get attacked... and he is calling other people hyper-sensitive-lol.
According to which religion? lol... who says this shit except products of feminist society for the past 100 years?
I am every one of those exempt for the beard. 99%! Also I am an INTJ which in very rare for women.
9!!!
YES!!!
Accurate.
Amen.
Thank you :)
While the girls are discovering their masculinity, I think I am finding out the complete opposite. XD
Then why am I still single Opie?
That moment when you're an engineer...
Haha. So agree with you!
@candyaurora I hate these dumb lists.
@candyaurora what's with the engineer thing.
I know so many engineers who are completely normal with feminine traits.
@Maazin lol so you can't be a good leader and feminine at the same time? Because the stereotypical "masculine" traits are what is desired in a leader.
Well, what I was trying to say is female engineers are a common sight especially with the computer science background and they sure are naturally feminine.
It's just that I've seen on gag that lots of folks stereotype women from the engineering background as masculine and not feminine enough. I wonder why.
A negative person talking negative sh*t, Shocking!
@Maazin it is a stereotype I think!
@Maazin really? Because when I went through for process, my discipline was the only one with a roughly equal m/f ratio. There was only one girl in the comp eng class, and she was the embodiment of all those stereotypes. Nice kid though.
@candyaurora lol
I think you too have asked this query if my memory proves me right?
whats your discipline?
@Maazin process engineering. Also called chemical engineering.
Sounds cool, good luck
@Maazin yup 😀
I am a male 😱
Do you have male chromosomes?
Many modern girls don't fit these former patterns!!
Great take mate...
Thank you!
