Why are modern men called weak?

Old men have been calling young men weak since the dawn of time.

Things was always harder back in my day

By who?

Because they need you to be insecure to sell you a product. Can't sell someone something that they don't need.

Funny thing is, it’s modern men calling other modern men weak.

spiraldinosaur · 2023-03-25T17:04:03+00:00

Because there are a bunch of men out there who aren't able to move with the times and want to maintain some archaic and outdated idea of what men are supposed to be. Those are the men who call other men weak for doing things like looking after their mental health or being nice to other people or not wanting to do physical jobs or whatever bullshit they're whining about.

Anyone who describes "modern men" as "weak" is not someone worth listening to. If anything they're the weak ones who crumple into a heap the second they're asked to do anything even slightly outside of their extremely rigid definition of what a man should be. The campest drag queens out there are hella stronger than any of those guys.

Weak for what purpose?

So many redpillers this, and plant seeds of doubts in doubt over nothing specific. They are justing using fear, without you even knowing what you are afraid about to sell you bullshit, wether if that bullshit is watchtime, alpha male coruses, or affiliate links.

Think before doing and think before reacting to a feeling. Do this and you will avoid all this cringe shit that men need to be back like the good old days of Spartan warriors when the average life span was like 30.

Buildings are still getting built, world power lifting records are still getting broken, wars are still very much able to be fought.

Who is calling men weak? Sources?

Coollogin · 2023-03-25T20:12:26+00:00

They aren't. My husband is a modern man. He is not at all weak. And no one ever calls him weak.

Carloverguy20 · 2023-03-25T18:55:18+00:00

Nowadays men have it easier than the previous generations did, because we now have access to a better standard of life, not being sent to the Frontlines, catching diseases, going through a great depression etc, so we aren't as tough as the older generations are. This is nothing new at all, each generation has said the same thing about men, saying this generation is soft.

The quote "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times". Boomers love to use this quote, but most of them were the "weak men" the quote talks about lol.

KingKunta2-D · 2023-03-25T21:29:35+00:00

Don't get mad but I think it's because we've made society so successful that everyone survives no matter how lazy you are or self-destructive you are. Man of the past are considered stronger because the ones who were alive to tell the story were strong men. A lot of good men died back then of pride and self-destruction. Also preventable diseases

The men who say this are normally well moisturized, well groomed guys, sitting in air-conditioned podcast rooms, with not a single callous on their hands.

SweelFor- · 2023-03-26T09:10:17+00:00

Because for hundreds of generations, the older generation has called the new one "weak"

xvszero · 2023-03-25T18:49:34+00:00

By whom? Boomer conservatives usually. This happens every generation. Someone actually posted an image once of quotes going back to literally BC times about people complaining about people becoming weaker.

Meanwhile human beings are actually as strong and fast as we have ever been. This is why, for instance, Olympic records get broken left and right.

Excellent-Spend-3307 · 2023-03-27T16:57:57+00:00

Because those men who call us weak cannot admit that they fetishize being abused. Might as well consider it BDSM

Prometheus-08 · 2023-03-25T19:36:38+00:00

Yes, there are weak men, but they are not always modern men. Lying to people about their weaknesses won't help overcome them or better as men. I cherish the moments when other men held me accountable for my health, fitness, health, and career, and told me off when I was being weak in mind and spirit. The point is to have tough love when need be and then build ourselves to a point where we can be men in this world.

AssistTemporary8422 · 2023-03-25T18:34:09+00:00

Young men have been taking longer and longer to get their careers started, often into their 30s. We are also a lot less physically strong and more obese than we ever have before. Our ability to be assertive, non-needy, and handle conflicts is weaker because we have weak social skills from all the screen time. Everyone is getting soft because of prosperity. How much of a bad thing this is, is debatable.

SrNetworkEngineer · 2023-03-25T17:41:39+00:00

They’re called weak because instead of rising to the occasion when they face a challenge, they shrink and cower instead.

They turn to food, booze, drugs, porn, etc. instead of learning and hard work.

They also allow and tolerate some trash women to talk down to them and then demand resources from them. If men were stronger, they’d laugh it off and continue to work on improving their lives.

The weak ones then are ill-equipped when they actually meet a good woman with good values and they screw up the relationship because they don’t know how to be strong and confident.

ramneekalone · 2023-03-26T07:21:56+00:00

You see, they are weak. If you can’t get over a break up or can’t get in better shape or work hard or be a better man in general. Then you are weak. You mfs spend 4 hours a day scrolling on TikTok and wonder why you are sad. That is a weakness. Some people just get called weak for no reason which obviously is an over generalization

brattcatt420 · 2023-03-25T23:15:19+00:00

Not enough protein and exercise probably

TheSwagonborn · 2023-03-26T11:48:44+00:00

insecurity of other modern men combined with a ruling-class incentive to keep us occupied with anything but our class' condition

Princealvaro33 · 2023-03-26T12:54:51+00:00

The inability to say no, set boundaries, stick to your boundaries (if you have), going along with everything the majority crowd tell you to do

ChicktoGo · 2023-03-28T13:56:43+00:00

How are they weak?

SufficientDot4099 · 2023-03-28T19:07:43+00:00

They are called weak because people know nothing about history and just have this false idea about how people were in the past
