    Most of me is my soft side, so I don’t know. It’s not like it’s a bad thing. My guess is they’re getting “soft” mixed up with “feminine”. Then again, I don’t mind showing my feminine side either. Loving cute stuff makes me no less of a man. No man is 100% tough or masculine, and no woman is 100% soft or feminine. Everyone has their own amount of each side.

    Soft=weak.

    Weak=total bitch.

    total bitch= MY bitch for life.

    This is not the truth but from what I know, this is how some men view others

    Because society tells them not too. Men make fun of other men that do that. And women tend to avoid and reject men that are that way… for the tough manly man that are bad boys.. so it’s never a win win for the “soft” caring, dudes..

    Because women see "soft" as weak, also you will use any weakness against us.

    Because there's no utility in showing it. People take your niceness for softness generally and think they can exploit or manipulate you.
