Masculinity

Is Feminism Really Killing Masculinity?

47 Comments

Having recently watched the film Mansome, and having viewed a few other trends in society, I began to question feminism’s role in the destruction of the true male. While I do not dispute the fact that feminism aims to destroy all that is man,  I have wondered if the evolution of man’s tendencies really is a byproduct of feminism, as they like to boast; or whether it’s really a byproduct of male desire or consumerism.

Feminism in brief can be summed up as a movement initially designed to give women a more defined role in society, and has since turned into a movement to enslave and ruin mankind by reshaping society into a form that effectively creates a self implosion. As previously covered in other blog postings about feminism, it creates an imbalance to everything mankind evolved around, and will create death and despair through weakened individuals and unnatural gender roles.

Think of Soviet assignment failures where doctors were told to cook and cooks were told to operate. While their influence is clearly present, I don’t believe the evolution of “ femininity” in men is completely a byproduct of feminism, and the idea that it is just gives their meaningless agenda more credit than is due. They’re actually pretty big failures at the influence of man.

Am I saying that men naturally want to doll themselves up like women? Not entirely. I don’t believe men want to transform into wusses and wear women’s clothing and remove everything masculine. What it appears to be is an attempt at expression of wealth.

Dating back in history it can be observed of men wearing wigs in colonial times, and dressing like fairies during the renaissance. The key element during both of these periods was the abundance of wealth. So despite the absurdity of their attire, men could exclaim that they were very expensive, and in essence they could display their wealth.

The negative backlash of recent years has turned men from driving flashy cars to wearing “flashy” clothing. Although strange currently, it’s something that has been common in historical cycles, and therefore actually discredits any progress feminism attempts to claim. So long as the highest of men backlash against the worst trends (i.e., skinny jeans), some sort of dignity can be maintained in the male spectrum.

Lastly there is consumerism. This is probably the biggest influence upon the anti-male train. This also directly correlates to the above information. Being in a time of general prosperity (we aren’t growing crops in our backyard to survive the winter), it has been drilled into our heads to buy random products, show them off, and gain support. This affects men from the idea of needing the biggest TV all the way to the idea that they need to get manicures and pedicures to gain an edge in their appearance.

As a result, more products are marketed towards men such as aftershave, body waxing, and hair products. Marketing is designed to tell men to buy the products and then they will impress people through the use of them. Thus consumerism directly correlates with similar instances in history.

Therefore, none of these trends, whether good or bad, can be credited to feminism. While women have their role in affecting our behavior, they don’t have the decisive factor in the ability to directly alter them. Men have always needed to impress women in order to find a suitable mate.

What appears to work most effectively is being out of the ordinary. So having more muscles, being more vocal, more or less groomed, or having a more expensive car are things that all stand out. When the majority of men are less groomed, the one who chooses to groom will stand out. In retrospect, in a setting where more men groom, those who choose not to groom will stand out. What this means is that soon enough the idea of being a manly man will once again put you on top, if it hasn’t already begun in your area. And the reason behind this is entirely due to the combination of marketing and the natural instinct of men to compete with one another.

Merica!

In conclusion, feminism has failed at altering mans course of direction. Their existence is massively over-credited, and the only real bearing women have over the effect of men is to seek out exceptionally unique qualities. So while the recent trend has been to dress elegantly and remain highly groomed, eventually it may become desirable to be Grizzly Adams. And this will all be due to the natural desire of men to find a way to get laid more.

  2. This post is right on.
    I would also refer readers to Solomon, and The Solomon Group
    specifically this section by Dalrock:
    ”
    Proverb 3: The Brighter Side of Feminism
    Feminism is a great way for Alpha males to control Beta males by Proxy.
    ”
    Every time I see losers whining endlessly about feminism
    (especially on the weekends when they should be out doing
    approaches instead of posting bitter tears on the interwebs)
    this is what I think of.

  3. When I think of feminism being anti-male, I think of things like divorce theft; guilty until proven innocent attitudes toward domestic violence and rape; making schools less male-friendly by removing athletics and suspending little boys for playing war; shaming normal male behavior as ‘creepy’; inculcating the belief that most women are discriminated against in the workplace and need big raises to close the supposed gender gap; child support for children you did not father; fat acceptance; etc.
    Yeah, sometimes it is annoying when women act like some hipster with skinny arms is the male ideal. But next to the kinds of things I listed above, it is a smaller issue.

    1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=muuFygvXPAM#!
      the woman are really fucked up for laughing at something so horrific. The man just wanted a divorce. Had the roles been reverse thered be an uproar. Here in the west we always see woman as innocent but 2nd and 3rd world countrys men see woman as crazy. thats why i dont feel major sympathy when they become victims(acid attack,genitle mutalation,etc) becasue they have the same thinking and values as the men.(male victims arre always ignored) they just play victim and act sorry when they lose….even my grand aunt has this type of thinkin(my parents stop me from debating her)….if this is how our woman behave then its no wonder they are “oppressed” and need to be kept in line.Fucking crazy…

        1. Good thing there wasn’t an entire studio audience full of hens who paid to laugh with the witch.

    2. those are not standards set in place by women. men have been in control of the workings of the world for thousands of years, so therefore any societal obligations of men were set by men. women did not have control until they strove for more independence in the 20th century. any limitations or expectations of men that seem “unfair” to you are entirely of your own making. i don’t understand how fat acceptance is a problem for men other than it makes you angry that women don’t give a shit if you think they’re hot or not. plus sexual discrimination in the workplace is very present. i know that may be hard for you to understand because you have not and likely never will experience it in your lifetime, but the fact remains that men are treated as the norm in a workplace and women are not.

      1. Bullshit. All those things in the first paragraph happened since feminism started taking over and patriarchy died out.

    3. I think it still is a problem whenever feminists tell men how to be more feminine, and they redefine “feminine” and “masculine” to mean whatever the Hell they want it to mean so that feminine means “human” and masculine means “caveman”. Some men in in particular are especially susceptible to it.

  4. femminism has politicised every aspect of the home, the family, the education system, government and society as a whole. Instead of things being straight forward, life now consists of increasing amounts of bickering and disagreement. When they tag team with the environmentalist, minority rights, or the gender confuse there are few places where hetro white males aren’t undersiege.

    2. Not just feminism. Progressivism in general. It’s end goal is that absolutely every breath one draws, need to be OK’d by some well connected government apparatchik.
      Any social structure or institution that people can be members of that are not entirely subordinate to the government, must be destroyed. Such as family, militias, religions etc. All of them. Leaving only weakened, atomized individuals; left all alone to face an all encompassing government.
      Feminism is only a subset of this, and will not be defeated until people wake the heck up, and realize the entirety of progressivism is nothing but a giant powergrab; from free individuals, and to the government that aims at nothing less than their total submission.

      1. I agree. I think your point has been facilitated by the unlimited supply of borrowed money and coercive taxation. Won’t change untill women have to make themselves better to attract a guy and that they respect merit in the workplace for the reason they have a job.

    3. “When they tag team with the environmentalist, minority rights, or the
      gender confuse there are few places where hetro white males aren’t
      undersiege.”
      The hetero white male can jump on the environmental bandwagon. In fact, I think those types are leading it.

    4. Oh it’s not just hetero white males that are under siege. One of the first things that pop in the Google bar if you Google “feminism destroyed” is “the black family”. Lots of black people think feminism destroyed black men, and I’d be surprised if it were NOT true.

  5. I used to just think feminism could just be ignored until I saw it having an effect on boys and schools.

  6. Feminism cant kill masculinity; but it can make it poorly defined. See: the ghettos, where ones masculinity is tied to how willing a man is to resort to violence and crime. They got that way by first not having a father to show them how a man should live, and then not having any kind of meaningful male role to step into (like fatherhood). See; SWPL communities, where men are like women in every way (except, totally more creepy).

  8. Feminism is just the last stage in the removal of power from the ordinary man by the [corporatist-]state.

  9. i got yes ob some of them….but im here to adapt to this culture. impossible to change unless mras get off their asses till then i wanna learn how to munipulte the current situation to gett what i want

    1. till then i wanna learn how to munipulte the current situation to gett what i want”
      What do you look like?

      1. Manipulate what? Just do what you want. The worst that happens is a feminist attacks you and then you just have to troll until she inevitably undoes herself. They work like self destructing computers.

  10. i agree with the idea that being masculine in its natural form (strong, good at fighting, a survivor/provider) is definitly something that people who grew up needing those skills have (kids from the block, people who grew up getting in fights, playing sports) , but people who didn’t (kids from the cul de sacs in the suburbs, everyone in the pacific north west) dont and that seems to be paralelling what u are saying about men with money showing it off… i think that plays into a way way way less masculine version of the provider role (u cant fist fight the bank for your house, but if you can afford hella corny clothes u can prolly make car payments) but i still dont want to discredit feminisms role in tryin to neuter mankind. dude if youve been to seattle washington…………….

  11. feminism has its role. but it is over credited.
    and that is because for some overcretiting feminism for ones own personal failures is a protection mechanism that defends their fat stinky mountain dew drinking egos.
    it aslo gives them an excuse not to try because feminism has made it so hopeless out there and we are all doomed or some other such nonsense.

  12. Do not underestimate how much the foreign left has infiltrated everything for over half a century. And even more importantly, do not forget that they have always been completely unchallenged.

  14. I find skinny jeans to be comfortable. Come on, this article feels like it’s just skimming the surface. Who the fuck cares what a man wears and what his chosen lifestyle is? A man does what a man wants to do. There are more serious issues to discuss than what other men wear that you may disapprove. Honestly, I don’t think there’s much of a difference between men and women. One has a cock, the other has a pussy. Both have tits actually, and both have anuses. But divide and conquer is the name of the game. Isn’t it convenient that you can separate people from this big group called humanity and bring them to your side? And then wage war on whoever is not on your side? Feminism, patriarchy, these are all power games. If we believe there are set rules to being men, then we are helping the other side divide us.

  15. Lets don;t make the mistake of thinking that feminists are attacking the concept of masculinity because they are especially against it. If they were, I doubt they’d all try to act so manly. The fact is that feminists promote female interests at the expense of anything and anyone in its path, including men. Because we as men are smarter and stronger and are re-focusing on behaving in accordance with our natural design, we don;t especially have to DO anything; we can just get back to doing what we know we ought to do and tell mouthy twats that the next time they pipe up, it better be to tell us our sammich is ready.

  16. Hot dayum that Old Spice man’s ass looks nice-n-round in those white pants which contrast so beautifully with his dark, creamy, smooth, supple, mocha skin!
    I wish all American men looked like that!

  17. No, the greatest danger of feminism is its inherent ability to link itself to any kind of social “justice” movement, then uses moral values like “compassion” and “empathy” to guilt any opposition into silence.
    The feminist does not understand, or does not want to accept, that the world is based on identity groups competing for supremacy. Greed matters. Aggression matters. Strength matters. All are more important things than their utopian ideals of tolerance and liberalism.

  18. This is pretty much the most hilarious shit I’ve ever read in my life. Have fun never getting laid, loser.

  19. It’s quite ironic that while working so hard to prove that women can’t control men, the article essentially concludes that men will continually adjust themselves for the sake of getting laid. Listen to yourselves.

  20. This is the most sexist thing i have ever read, is not every person created equal? Women aren’t making men any less masculine. Women are just getting more rights and becoming equal to men. (a side note did you know that women are still not payed as much as men because of discrimination)

  21. I hope none of you ever encounter another woman in your lives, you should all be put on a very small remote island in Bermuda to be masculine with each other and then disappear forever. Who raised you? I hope to god none of you have children. Its laughable how obviously threatened all you ‘alpha’ males feel by women :). On what planet are you smarter and more intelligent than any woman, because judging by your comments and submissions, none of you can string a single word let alone sentence together!!!!!!
