A millions thanks to you both

As you can tell from my attitude, i was pretty annoyed, disappointed and disgusted.

I wouldn't, it had cringey rapey vibes, hidden under the surface. I wouldn't mind if they were honest about it but pretending with a gun in someones mouth is just pathetic. Story seemed interesting, until the point where main character forgives people that were trying to kill them and innocents after arm wrestling one of them.

UQ holder I'd say, but not too sure as a i dropped it a few eps in. Mc looks like the dude though

Kek. Props to you for pulling through the argument. I only read the pic once and imprinted it in my mind. And yeah, good to see you agree with that. Boys do need to hear it more

Well I'm a ducking idiot. It does say that. Point 1 got to me, i guess i read that differently the first time. In that case my whole argument was based on the wrongful assumption that it said "being a man means you CAN BE strong". Not just being a man = being strong. That's idiotic for sure.

By being flipped I mean any messages about womens empowerment could be rotated to that same scrutiny and it could be said that some women don't want to be strong or working womrn. Some women may just want to stay hone as housewives and raise a family. So does this make female empowerment and infringement on their wishes since you claim the male variant does that for the 'feebler' men. Not meant in an insulting sense, more so the less macho men.

Well this post doesn't demand that men must be strong. It simply says that they can be, ergo any man who wants to be strong but doesn't feel capable should have more faith and work to be stronger. And the strength doesn't have to be physical, it can be in an emotional, logical or patience based sense. You're limiting my arguments to a sharp scope while your own points are being portrayed from your preferred perspectives. That's not a fair way to debate a point and just makes me need to re-explain what you should attempt to understand. At least try to see my perspective and you'll get some bearing of what i mean in my original post

Plus the reason his message rings so true is because of how much focus is being put with statements like yours to make it seem like men have it all good yet are all wrong at the same time. I see that message as "do as you wish, you are a man and be proud of it". A counter message to benefit men that might feel lesser after seeing all the 'women are great' messages. Its not a competitive concept but exclusion of one group causes such thoughts, so this message can be seen as the inclusion of men as well into the movement of fairness (i won't call it feminism)

Promotion of stereotypes is not a progressive way of thinking. Also, most of the points you made against men wanting to be emotional or 'weak' can be flipped and applied to anything with female empowerment. So your points in that case are flawed as you state it as though its only men that might not want that.

IG for the win!!! Go miss a GS swing and sell a light bowgun

That really is a brilliant one. I have saved it for future use
