1	The ideas of masculinity and femininity are inherently sexist And that latter point is the problem, but the femininity/masculinity dichotomy doesn’t need to necessarily imply that a man being feminine is less becoming. Sure, it’s ended up that way, and I say we change that, but I for one like very much the ability to describe qualities of myself as feminine or masculine. There are plenty of tools for expression we have that are not based in clear objectivity, but this is exactly what makes them often so validating to people. I am not just the facts about m…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/03/25 01:56 PM
2	The ideas of masculinity and femininity are inherently sexist Have you perhaps thought of it like this: masculinity and femininity are complementary aspects that primarily rest within existence, not gender, which the genders are simply emulating in certain ways? This way, a man can be feminine not in the ways he acts “like a woman” but in how he acts femininely in a sense that precedes women acting feminine. It wouldn’t have to do with being a certain gender this way, just acting principally masculine or feminine, as these concepts would be more primary th…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/03/25 01:47 PM
1	The ideas of masculinity and femininity are inherently sexist Yes, I am just discussing the, ultimately arbitrary, definitions we use for these words as a way to better express an approximation of our selfhoods.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/03/25 01:36 PM
6	The ideas of masculinity and femininity are inherently sexist This can be a start, but what about a man’s aspects of femininity, for example? This cannot have only to do with his experience of womanhood because he does not experience womanhood, yet men can hold femininity.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/03/25 11:24 PM
3	Are you being abused by a woman? Men often don't even realize that what is being done to them is actual abuse, or don't speak up about it. Exactly. I’ve been blamed for not being able to set up and be honest/assertive about boundaries when whenever they were brought up I was shamed for them and shut down.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/10/23 09:55 PM
1	Antinatalism This is not antinatalism	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/08/23 11:24 PM
2	What do you guys think of “Positive Masculinity”? As soon as you introduce the term “positive masculinity” then you are implying that typical masculinity is not positive. It’s a problem	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	10/01/23 06:22 AM
2	A growing number of men are undergoing a radical and expensive surgery to grow anywhere from three to six inches. The catch: It requires having both your femurs broken. GQ goes inside the booming world of leg lengthening. I mean extreme more in the sense it’s not ever medically indicated, but that makes sense	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/11/22 05:56 PM
3	A growing number of men are undergoing a radical and expensive surgery to grow anywhere from three to six inches. The catch: It requires having both your femurs broken. GQ goes inside the booming world of leg lengthening. Ah I see I figured a purely aesthetic and somewhat extreme procedure would be costly and difficult fo find willing surgeons for.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/11/22 04:10 PM
6	A growing number of men are undergoing a radical and expensive surgery to grow anywhere from three to six inches. The catch: It requires having both your femurs broken. GQ goes inside the booming world of leg lengthening. That doesn’t mean necessarily there arent lots of men who want this but don’t have the money or opportunity. I’d bet it’s rare, but maybe for other reasons other than men just not wanting it	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/11/22 03:50 PM
0	Transgender man convicted of assault for having sex with women who did not know he was using a prosthetic device Your examples given aren’t exavtly equivalents to what’s happening here though. Lying to someome outright, telling them you’re a billionare, is not the same as not disclosing a fact about oneself. And in your second, not disclosing a factor of the sexual encounter that would undeniably cause concrete physical harm is not the same as not disclosing some aesthetic preference. To prevent assault, it is someone’s responsibility to not lie directly to someone with intention to get them to have sex wi…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/05/22 01:29 AM
