Why are men of this generation unmasculine?

Question

Maculinity in both personality and appearance is a far cry in todays men. Most men act like complete wussies and are not leaders. What happened?

OMG @ladsin @coachTanthony @gps181 @Mistnigqa808 @MrOracle

ain't this the shit we have been talking about?, all the fucking pussy whipped morons we are breeding these days... lol... and they wonder why women are walking all over them and they keep bowing lol.

Now to my opinion, darling don't generalize... the men are out there... the "no nonsense im a man and ima do this and you can take it or leave it" kind of men. The bad asses. They are out there. I think you just cast your fishing hook in the wrong dating pool.
is that guy taking a selfie?

There's the fact that the picture on the Men then is merely men going to war. You do realize that you had this back during the same time as the men then

That's a ridiculous generalization. Just because people were forced to go to war doesn't make them masculine and just because a handful of men choose to dress a different way, doesn't mean today's men aren't masculine.

Bullshit, look at this guy ;)

winterfox10 · Answer

There were a lot of things. 1. The Industrial Revolution took fathers away from their families, so the sons weren't being taught how to be men (break down of the familial unit). 2. Women of today try to act masculine, and society will frequently shut down and punish men who try to take a stand for themselves. 3. Men, especially white men (although I expect the race changes from country to country), have become the focus of jokes in media and advertising.

If you don't think 3 is a big deal, try to think of the last time you saw a commercial where the husband didn't make a complete ass of himself, and Wife/Mom swoops in to save the day. If you see that message often enough, you start to view yourself as inherently incompetent because of your gender.

I honestly don't have much of an opinion on this subject as most of it just seems like a cultural fad and one that I haven't particularly much witnessed in real life. I've always lived in areas where the sorts of fellows shown in the image on the right... well. I just haven't seen them.

DanBi03 · Answer

You make an assertion as if it was a fact. It is not :) human nature has not changed, there is simply more diversity.
Plus "masculinity" is an ambiguous concept. What does it really mean? Being macho? Not crying? Being dominant? Getting into fights?

xTom98 · Answer

you basically took the worst examples and generalized it 🤦

there's plenty of men nowadays that look great and very masculin, also there's still a thing called army, the only diffrece is that the cameras are less shitty 😂

I like how you show pictures of war even though most of the people who went to those wars you showed were total wusses. Most of the soldiers would completely lose it and wouldn't be able to shoot at the enemy even in their general direction most of the time. Get your facts straight before making accusations.

ThirdEyeWide · Answer

They're still real men. Sadly those are the ones who didn't conform to be something pathetic and spineless, just to seem more relatable to women. When masculinity is demons by women and cucks in media. Which is a disservice to everyone because real women don't want a soy boy that acts like a in door cat. Media has warped perception, therefore slowly shaping reality

I was talking about this to someone just a few days ago. We were talking about how the male pin-up men of the 70's looked more like men than the men of today that are deemed "sex symbols." It is also interesting that the male sex symbols from decades ago would be called mostly ugly by most women today.

AdmiralBailey · Answer

Oh, I don't know. High divorce rates; no fathers; feminism; prioritization of women in work and school; inherited a bad economy; sky high suicide and depression rates; opioid addiction. Men just don't feel like men anymore because feminism taught the last generation that masculinity is toxic.

You know, I do agree with you on certain levels. This probably goes some way towards explaining why I’m definitely more drawn to a decent guy in the military. Some just have those real admirable traits.

Deathraider · Answer

I think you're selectively choosing pictures that support your point. Not all men back then were in the military and not all men today dress like that.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

Aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwww. Their moms made them like this. Don't blame the Fathers. At least we are all ''equal'' now. It had been the ladies' choice. Now eat what was cooked.

Melliyoo · Answer

Going to war is masculine then?  Also, I've seen guys like they are on the right side like once in my life, its definitely not a majority lmao

MrKinktastic · Answer

Mostly you're just idealizing the past. Though we are becoming less rigid in how we define masculinity.

Shimy · Answer

You know that all men don't look like that, right? In fact I've rarely seen men dressed up like that in the streets. And you know that armies still exist?

Jaximus-Lion · Answer

Oh man! I wish this question gets like 100 plus comments. Am curious too, i have no idea why they act like that.

Oasha · Answer

Wait, I don't get it, I thought women wanted men to just be themselves?

There is no "masculine" or "feminine", gender roles are just a social construct.
