Imagine basing your entire opinion on a man about how they feel about that other man.

Imagine having a lot of people you once admired and looked up to as role models, from actors all the way to even your parents, suddenly all within a decade or so take their masks off and reveal that they are actually villains.

Just out of curiosity, could you (or anyone else) give a couple of examples of what you would consider "great role models for real men"? Or "good role models for well-adapted men", if you'd rather use less inflammatory language.

Fred Rogers, Terry Crews, Lin Manuel Miranda, Henry Cavill, John Cena, Steve Irwin and Dave Grohl to name a few.

Chuck Norris once slapped Pi so hard it became rational for a moment. RIP dude, we’d continue the jokes, may your soul laughs as hard as we do. Chuck Norris once bet 42 is a prime. He won.

Sorry, but these Chuck Norris jokes are more like Bruce Schneier facts: https://www.schneierfacts.com/

I used to love the Schneierfacts, I mean I still do, but I used to as well.

They were obviously a bit more niche, but that made them funnier to my mind.

Some of them, perhaps. I don't think the center left would ever have been into the birther conspiracy.

There were conspiracy theories in the 80s and 90s too.

There is a huge difference between general conspiracy theories and the birther lie which was more racist astroturfing than a legitimate conspiracy

Ironically, the very concept of a “real man” is founded on the idea that a man should be defined by stereotypes rather than by sex, which puts manosphere enthusiasts and gender enthusiasts in closer epistemological proximity than either would care to admit.

I saw this coming, that's why I made this point, which you ignored: > Could you give a couple of examples of what you would consider > "good role models for well-adapted men" ? I'm actually curious.

Amy Coney Barrett.

Supreme court judge, mother of 7, still finds time to go to the gym.
