Thanks, Joe for articulating many of the thoughts I've been having on the topic of masculinity and how it's been co-opted by the red pill twits. The whole "women are valued for their beauty and reproduction purposes" and "men are valued for bringing resources and are expendable nature" makes everything sound so "corporate" and business-like.

As you pointed out, life and relationships are not meant to be that way. My personal experiences are that life is sweet, it's sweeter with my partner. Sure I got bigger muscles than her and I like to get together with my male friends and do standard male things, but I also love nurturing my children. I also like being vulnerable with my wife, sharing emotions, and supporting one another.

I love experiencing the whole gamut of emotions and what life has to offer AND not be put into some construct that some jackass made.
