What’s your take on modern masculinity and how it has evolved over the years?

1. My take is mostly that people spend too much time obsessing over the concept and they should just be themselves.

2. I don’t really care about it.
   Just let everyone do what they want.
   If you want to be able to fix cars thats cool.
   If you want to do your nails do it.

   We obsess too much about what will other people think of us instead of what will we think of us

3. My humble take on modern masculinity is being me and feeling good about myself without degrading anyone else. These alpha Tate type grifters completely lack self-esteem and need to build it up by degrading women, minorities or even other men to feel somewhat good about themselves or maybe even feel anything at all.

4. Masculinity hasn’t changed.

5. It’s a concept that’s not really needed anymore. But because so many people built their identities around it and sacrificed so much to live up to the concept they’re having a hard time coping with it.

   It’s a mix of them feeling like their sacrifices were in vain, a form of jealousy that younger generations don’t need to make the same kind of sacrifice, a sense of becoming irrelevant in the world and a feeling of their hard-built identity being under attack.

6. I don’t really care about classifying things as feminine/masculine. I think as time goes on they’ll be useless distinctions
