History Are men less masculine today?

[YEET]

There is a relationship between graviating towards porn and higher testosterone levels, in a general sense, yes.

I’m probably an outlier. Never had my levels checked. Always horny, but don’t care to work out due to average energy or do manly things in general.

There is a large community of sissies and femboys on Reddit that also embrace femininity. Sorryyy

People have been complaining that “men aren’t men anymore” forever.

Men in the 1980s wore makeup and dressed as girls in front of sold out concerts with thousands of people. In the 70s they danced to disco in tight jeans or leather pants. Dudes in the 90s wore little jean shorts and fanny packs.

Men these days don’t do any of that.

Shut your mouth bitch or I'll scratch your gorgeous eyes out x

Your interests won't change drastically even as your levels drop each decade. The biggest predictor of your personality trait is your hormonal history. It is very broad grouping though. I could never explain based on your hormone levels why you like Burt Bacharach, for instance.

Some would argue not watching porn is masculine.

Unmasculine people typically make that argument..

I'm not even sure what masculine means - I don't drink or fight or even have much in common with masculine men. I'm solidly left wing, don't buy into Dana's rubbish about toxic masculinity not existing etc etc etc

Most of my interests/hobbies in life would very popular with women as well, like reading or writing. I don't particularly have much interest in sports or shooting or (fill in the blank).

For some reason though, I always notice a strong correlation between how much my life improves and also how much I adapt a masculine frame/mindset in life. I'm not sure why, but it...just works.

I ruminate less. I do more. I even feel like I'm moving forward in life instead of feeling sad or sorry for myself or anything like that.

People in general just respect me more as a masculine man. My words carry more weight. I feel less anxious about speaking up in general or doing what I feel is right.

Looking on it now, the more headaches in life I seemed to have the more expressive or feminine I tried to be. It just seemed to tire me and left me open to being hurt again and again.

Are men less masculine in general now? I think they are, but I'm not sure if it was a change in the right direction. So many men feel confused, isolated and lost in their place in the world and I wonder if this ight be one of the many reasons why.

You said at the beginning that you are unsure about the meaning of masculine but then go on about improvements in your life when you are more masculine.What do you consider to be masculine?

Evidence for this? I feel stronger and more confident in myself if I'm not jerking off and cucking myself by watching people I don't know.

Wouldn’t they have to peel their eyes off their cell phones, to even consider doing something masculine.
That’s a big request for the modern male.
