It's because of guys like Tuberville that I do not regard myself as a man anymore.
I mean seriously, masculinity currently is defined in media by folks like Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan (and before them, Donald Trump and Bill O'Reilly).
When I was a kid, masculinity was defined by the capacity to be responsible for a nuclear bomb and not launch it. Id est, to be able to take care of business without being petty. Then that just became common adulting, and everyone is supposed to do that.
And now we've got a man in office in the White House who is eager to launch nukes and end civilizations (and has had to be told no more than once regarding nuclear authorization).
you choose how you define your masculinity.
That's the thing. I can't think of a single trait that is preferable for men to have but women not, or for that matter, vice versa.
I used to be a gender abolitionist, and the only reason I'm not is because I can see how much it means for trans folk to represent at the gender they identify with. (I also hypothesize that it's similarly important for self-identified alpha-males, who just don't feel masculine enough no matter how much they try.)
I prefer to think in terms of "mature adult vs petulant / immature" rather than in gender terms.
I happen to pee standing up, but so what?
