      Exactly! I was really happy when I found out my boyfriend had never been in love either when we first started dating. I would have still fallen for him if he'd had a "hoe phase" lol or a few serious relationships before me, but it was really nice that we were both new to sex, love, dating and all that.
      He's not a macho guy either, but he possesses an inner strength that I really admire. He's kind, calm and has his shit together, which is 1000x better than a guy who talks a big game and acts macho, but doesn't have good qualities to back it up.

    I relate on the other side of the coin. Grew up tomboy and got teased if I looked like a boy but being feminine didn't feel genuine and I struggled for a long time thinking I had to pick only one, being masculine or feminine but eventually found my own balance. Growing up different can be so rough and painful but finding oneself through that struggle I think is extra rewarding long term.

But I work hard on myself to not view myself as a man. I may not be assertive all the time but I don't care. I'm a man of my word And I'm kind. I care about others. I carved my definition.

    Years ago when I was still in school, there was a movement where teenage boys would wear/own pink coloured items to protest against the notion of traditional masculinity. I think that was very important, despite the reprimands from the adults, they carried their pink bags and wore pink accessories. There was a big shift in the way guys from my generation and younger saw the world, they were starting to show more of their vulnerable sides and were not afraid to embrace things that were deemed “girly” by the older generations. I don’t know who started it, but I’m glad it made a positive long lasting impact here.

      We may be around the same age, as nearly every boy I went to school with saw no issue with wearing pink. The school newspaper people ran a survey and found that like 95% of all people at our school, regardless of gender, saw no issue with boys wearing pink. We all just saw it as an arbitrary color. Which it is. The boys my age back then would sometimes talk about their feelings and be emotionally vulnerable. There wasn’t a huge macho culture happening, and I think that the bullying rates at our school were much lower than average as well. The boys were free to hang out with and be friends with girls without being teased for it or considered outcasts (for the most part.) I think that my generation marks history in the way we think and act. Being gay or trans was accepted at my school, and one guy even put on nail polish one time with a couple of other girls. I don’t believe he ever received criticism or judgement about it. As cruel as children can be, I think that we were very accepting when compared to the average school environment, although mean-spiritedness was definitely still present, just not in the same areas. But we for sure rejected the idea of traditional masculinity and femininity. It’s encouraging.

      I marginally lowered my expectations once and it landed me in a mediocre relationship. But before the mediocre one, I didn't have any whatsoever because I had no dating experience. I didn't know what to expect of people so I ended up with a sexually and emotionally abusive boyfriend.

There's a reason why as long as the internet has been a thing we've said "don't feed the trolls". I mean it's a good look in my book if you engage in good faith, but if you think the conversation could get at you in a way that would make you show that you were affected by the comment in the first place, avoid engaging them at all.

    People need to understand that masculine and feminine are energies not physicalities. And that both male and female have both and those energies are constantly fluctuating. When a person is protecting (not necessarily physically) and providing (not necessarily monetarily) they are in their masculine energy and when they are nurturing and nesting they are in their feminine.

    Thinking about this concept, the parts i love most about my boyfriend are the parts that would make him most unlike a stereotypical “manly” westernized man. I think that the parts that make you human are often shamed by men in western society but that’s what people connect to and i don’t understand why we aren’t celebrating what makes us human instead of hiding it

      That's what's scary...
      But its more like the younger generation are being manipulated. They are not using intuitive thinking, rather they are being subliminally told to believe these things.

And there's something coming out the water to take the masculinity away from men...

      @@Islam-and-boxing O kind of agree with you. I'm a gen z girl and social media has a huge influence on our generation. A lot of people have gotten really sensitive, most people ( men and women) are too soft and one can't express a different opinion from the masses without getting cancelled. A lot of things are getting out of hand. I can't even imagine what the next generation will be like🤦

      @@ethiopiazoldyk4667 Due to robbing men from masculinity and making women 'strong' and 'independent' the amount of men that have gone on antidepressants and even committed suicide is getting high... It's not spoken of that much because it doesn't fit with social medias reality. The way we perceive the world is so fake because of social media. That's why I felt the urge to comment on here to make people aware that this guy's views are destructive.
