i've had women come over to my place and do this. and then tell me it made them uncomfortable because men are not supposed to be able to cook, clean, let alone decorate.

An example of women perpetuating toxic masculinity

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 11 minutes ago* (last edited 7 minutes ago)

no, when they do that they are just 'expressing a preference for a manly man'.

and if you tell them how problematic (and self-defeating usually) their ideas are, they tell you how you just hate all women and you have no right to criticize their 'preferences' and clearly you are insecure and pathetic.

this same technique is also used to justify rabid racism against non-white men all the time. It's always amazed me how women hide behind the 'patriarchy' and their 'oppression' only to rapidly perpetuate the rapidly racist and sexist nonsense they happen to believe in. I've also been on some date with women of color who do this, it's not like restricted to white women.

What I will say is the women who do do this... are typically privileged and wealthy types whose main dispute with life is they are privileged and wealthy enough... and that it's an evil and oppressive society that is preventing them form making an extra 50-100K on their already 300K salary.

keep being you and i promise theres women out there to appreciate it

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

the women who appreciate it are not attracted to me sexually. or they are already married. i have had plenty of female friends who admire my home and my cooking. but i've never been in a sexual relationship with a lady who saw it as a positive, only as a threat.

the issue with dating that people really struggle to be honest about, is most of us have limited options in potential partners, and it's either accept what's available, or date nobody. i know exactly who would work for me to date, but sadly none of those women find me attractive, and the one who do find me attractive, are the ones who i have absolutely nothing in common with, and who think my lifestyle choices and values make me a closeted homosexual.

and yeah i'd rather be alone than be in another relationship with someone who constantly makes jokes about how i'm secretly gay and i'm going to leave her for a man, or what a pussy I am for being human and being upset over events like the death of my parents. but that's the type of woman who finds me attractive and wants to date me.
