It's masculine insecurity. Our culture doesn't produce men who are secure in their gender identity so they have to constantly proofs it to themselves and others all the time. Once you see it, you realize it's the root cause from everything from truck nuts to looksmaxxing
Right but like, I'm basically from them.
And I am a guy.
And I have been insecure.
I addressed this via self reflection, learning about myself and others, finding things I wanted to become good at and then becoming good at them.
Like I totally agree with you that trucknutz are literally gender affirming care, but I... I don't get it.
I can't relate to or understand such people beyond pathologizing them and basically treating them as an NPC sub type.
