It's weird to me. It's hypocritical. Women expect men to uphold all of their archaic gender roles because "reasons" but they don't want to be held to theirs.

Men have to strong, tall, powerful, dominant, handsome, in shape, rich or making a large six figure salary, have social status, be wanted and preselected by other women, intelligent, confident and never wavering in said confidence, never show any signs of weakness and have to be a total badass that takes no shit from anyone. Men have to be all of that and more or else.

Archaic gender roles.

But women bitch and moan when men want them to adhere to theirs. They go into tirades about slut shaming, fat shaming, patriarchy, men being insecure, etc. You want all these things in a man, all these oppressive antiquated ideals of manhood but it's a problem to say you want a woman that's under 30, not a slut, not a single mother, not fat or overweight, who's attractive, knows how to cook, clean and not nag, and fucks you more than once a month.

It's hypocritical. Its completely okay for you to want a walking stereotype of an Alpha Male but, wanting the equivalent in a female is patriarchal oppression and men being insecure.
