    Sure, we need more positive masculinity, but problem is, same “empowered” women shaming men for it, i mean, i am man and with my friends I’m very very close, supportive, and kind, every time “empowered” women see it, they shame the fuck out of you, if your don’t show healthy positive masculinity and closing off, then you get shamed again, if you try to become independent of others opinions and be healthy positive yourself then you get shamed again, there’s simply no winning this, you gotta accept that some people, men women, elderly, peers, will hate you no matter what, until you accept this simple fact deep into your soul, and start loving yourself and living for yourself, you can’t truthfully be positive and healthy masculine man, speaking from personal experience

      Key word:

      some

      As another commenter said, haters gonna hate, be they men or women. You can help others, and know you’re right for that. If someone takes issue - it is their problem, not yours. I’d even argue that anyone shaming you for positive masculinity is a bullet worth dodging.
