I grew up in a small, Midwestern town. Distinctly conservative. These same problems existed despite there being a more direct, simple conception of masculinity (and violence was, if anything, more normalized). Your position is a contemporary cultural lightning rod, but I’m not immediately convinced.
- userinanother 3y agoDo you think it’s a evolutionary competition thing where older men somewhat intentionally confuse younger males to slow them down in the biological competition for mates
- kredd 3y agoNot everything in the world is there to “get you”. Men who have friend girls tend to have much easier time finding “mates” in my circles. Again no citations, just observations. And it kinda passes the smell test, as it’s so much easier to talk to opposite genders when you somewhat know what’s going on in their lives.
