Summary: The push for gender fluidity by western Feminists and SJWs is literally driving men and women batshit crazy.

 

This post builds on /u/JP_Whoregan ‘s post from yesterday that “All Men need a Purpose” (still on the front page, or archived here). We can see the results of many men nowadays, lost in the wake of the push for gender fluidity. They have no grounding for their masculine impulses, no place to express it in a natural or healthy way. Instead they are heavily feminized, turned into caricatures of what men were intended to be: overweight, out-of-shape, disconnected socially from other men, inept with women, placated in a basement somewhere with video games and porn.

And of course, the feminist/SJW solution is to further feminize men. Cause, you know, if something doesn’t work, it just tells us we need more of it … cue forehead slap ... When really, what these men need is to be taught how to appropriately channel their masculine impulses. They need strong male role models.

My point here is that this phenomenon is affecting both men and women. I’m going to give you some examples from women I know, then return to my above point.

 

I dated this female computer programmer a few years ago. She was pretty hot, great body, slightly nerdy, Asian, mid 20’s. She didn’t give off any weird vibes at first glance that you sometimes get from female programmers or gamers. Dressed feminine, no weird hair colors or piercings, not very promiscuous. She was a bit of a challenge, but I liked that.

Girl computer programmers have always fascinated me. Especially the ones that are physically attractive. Obviously a rare breed. Dating one gave me a rare window into her mind. An intimate look. She had spent her life trying to compete with men. Trying to think like men. Dealing with the mental stresses of programming, debugging, logic. And it took its toll. That kind of duress changes women, and not in a good way. It was interesting watching her over those months, a woman but with these masculine traits she tried to take on, like it was some sort of mascara or eyeliner that could be simply dabbed on. But the cracks were visible. She was moody, inconsistent. Constantly changing her mind. Super happy then super unhappy. Bizarre sleeping patterns. Obsessive. Compulsive exerciser. She stalked me for literally years after we broke up. She wasn’t BPD or anything (dealt with that before, know it well, unfortunately). She was just crazy.

The reality was that she tried to be in control, like a man. She tried to control her emotions, rather than be guided by them. Tried to exert logic when she made decisions. Tried to control the storm, rather than ride it out. It was like watching a computer gone haywire, trying to be a car, despite the fact it had no wheels or engine. Trying to be something it was not. And in doing so, her innate nature went completely out of control. She was ruled by her emotions, but almost as if they came in spasms. Instead of embracing who she was, she tried to be something she wasn’t, and in the end she became neither. Just a shell of person, dysfunctional at best.

I’ve worked with several other female computer programmers in years since, with the same issue. Fairly attractive women trying to be men. Trying to take on masculine traits in order to compete with men. And once I saw it that first time up close, it was glaringly obvious in these others. The same dysfunction. The same confusion on their faces. I pitied them, because they didn’t understand, couldn’t see, what was wrong with them. But they knew something was. The problem was that they’d been indoctrinated by modern feminists that this was the right path. That anything men could do, women could to. That there was no difference in our bodies, abilities, or innate psychology. And it was literally driving them batshit insane.

But of course, those were the same feminists out getting Gender Studies degrees. It was these “other” women who were suffering the consequences.

 

On the flip side, this is exactly what is happening to men and boys. The whole trope about ”toxic masculinity” … that masculinity is bad, men should cry, get manicures, be soft, gentle, sit down and shut up. Load them up on Adderall when they are 7-years-old. Tell them their sexual impulses are bad. That they are inherently violent. That they are rapists. Even looking at a woman is predatory. Even complementing her. Admiring her. Let alone should men be competitive amongst themselves, argue, fight, spit, take risks. Lift weights, nah. Nobody cares if you are fat, just be yourself. Sports, well okay, but we won’t keep score and everyone gets fucking orange slices at half time. Cause feelings are more important that truth.

And so these men, they do the same thing the women programmers I described above do. They drink the feminist gender fluid Kool-Aid. They turn against their nature. They try to be nicer, softer. More agreeable. Less competitive. They seek comfort over challenge. Get fat, grow neckbeards, end up as an incel in mom’s basement playing World-of-Warcraft. They are feminized men. But their innate masculine nature is still there, aching to be expressed. And with no way to channel it appropriately, it becomes misguided. Turns to anger. Eventually they lash out.

As /u/JP_Whoregan pointed out, all men need a purpose. It gives them a way to channel their masculinity. Without that, they literally go batshit insane.

What’s interesting is that 99% of people clearly identify as one gender or the other. And the vast majority of each gender acts in gender-stereotypical ways, for instance this, even if there is some variation. AWALT, after all. And what is most problematic with this gender fluidity push is that we are in essence driving the 99% towards insanity in order to make the other 1% feel slightly better. I ask you, is that trade-off in any way justifiable?

I think not. If we look at the mass murders occurring, the incredible rise of mental health issues in men and women over the last half century, then we have to question our path. Moreover, the various articles calling for a further attack on masculinity only exacerbate the problem. They are completely oblivious to their own complicity. What we need is a re-emergence of masculinity, appropriately channeled and guided, with strong male role models. Not women telling men how to be men (like this or this). That, gentleman, is TRP in a nutshell.
