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).

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?
