What is masculinity if women can do everything men can do?

[Anonymous]

I see all over the place this "masculinity" being debated and talked about. So many books. So many people in the "manosphere" teaching men to be men, supposedly.

But they're all just teaching stuff that women do and never need to be taught to do.

The only area where "masculinity" still exists, in my opinion, is in those areas women cannot do.

Such as, defend themselves from other men physically. Defend their families physically from all kinds of problems from home invasion to natural disaster.

ALL the other crap they label as "masculinity" is stuff women can and do do.

So wtf is masculinity?

I know you read books. So did I. I know you read the red pill and you've been all up in the manosphere. Me too.

I've concluded it's all complete utter nonsense.

I've concluded that "masculinity" in reality, is nothing more than the set of traits which women find sexually attractive.

And if you want to maximize those traits, than you have to do all this stuff as can be learned in the manosphere. Which I also would debate against but that's not for this post.

You dont have to "be a man" or "be masculine" to live a good life.

Maybe to get a girlfriend you do. A high quality one anyways.

But then you could argue, that "being a man" in the sense that it is attractive to women, is also a state of being that brings you success in whatever you do.

Which seems to me to debunk the idea of toxic masculinity. If masculinity is necessary to both attract women and reach success in life, than there is no such thing as toxic masculinity. Only masculinity and the pressures of success put onto men, and the pressure to be perfect successful provider or else be a worthless human being. Or else be a dry dick loser for life. Qnd that's kind if the fact isn't it? We dont see a man who can't get laid and has no success as human even.

So which is it? What's the truth? I know none of y'all on this site know a damn thing but maybe one or two will have something smart to say if I'm lucky.

Read the book “hard times create strong men” by Stefan Aarino

[Asker]

there's 100 books to read and all of. them detail stuff women can do just fine without a book to guide them.

It’s not about women

Masculinity and femininity has to do with your gender only, not social constructs.

If you're born male then you are masculine and vice versa.

Masculinity is a concept that lasted for thousands of years, but is now viewed as a hate crime by libtards.

sometimes i envy certain species of animals, their courtship or mating ritual looks more easy or simple than compared to humans
