Break from Politics: Man scaping and Skinny Jeans

 

    So the company I work for employs a lot of millennials.  As I walk around the office I am constantly passing guys wearing skinny jeans and other items of clothes that look about two sizes too small for them.  Most of them look like a cross between an awkward teenager and Icabod Crane.  In this era of "toxic masculinity", which I firmly believe is crap, I have to wonder what our young men are being taught and shown a when it comes to manliness.  I read a meme once that said "If you have a beard and cannot change a tire, shave".  I laughed out loud because I could not agree more.  If you look back in history a vast majority of great men exemplified what a man is.  They had beards, worked with their hands, could fix anything from cars to houses, and most of all stood up to those who opposed them.

    In our society boys are groomed to believe men can be women, women can be men, and no matter what your parts say you can be whatever you want.  They are also taught that being a man is sexist and a threat to women.  Girls are conversely taught that they don't need men for anything, are the dominant gender, and should be given anything they want or it is sexist.  I firmly believe this is where we as a society began to fail.  From personal experience I can say every woman I have been in relationships with has appreciated the fact I can change tires, do car maintenance, am handy around the house, and also I am in touch with my feelings and not afraid to be vulnerable.  There is nothing wrong with a man being in touch with his feelings, he just shouldn't be a cry baby all the time!

    Most women I have met and become friends with have also expressed to me the shame they are hammered with by other women if they choose to be more traditional.  They are told they are not strong, cannot stand up to men, are a disgrace to women, etc.  Could this new found manliness among women be the reason "There are no good men out there" "All men are dogs" and "Men only want one thing"?  I think that is an absolute accurate reason for these struggles.  Men do not want to date men for the most part.  When gay couples are together they even develop masculine and feminine roles.  This alone should stress the importance of each type of personality.

    Now back to skinny jeans.....What in the actual fuck is that about?  How is that comfortable?  Do you not have any equipment that needs room to breathe?  I do not and will never understand I guess.  For any women that read my blog can you please tell me if this is attractive to you or not?  

    When it comes to manliness we have drifted way away from what I think is functional.  We need to get back to a more traditional upbringing of our kids.  There is nothing wrong with traditional gender roles, they are needed for healthy relationships!  Yes women should also know how to change their oil, change a tire, and be able to do basic life tasks but when they get into a relationship they should not have too!  And yes men should know how to sew, cook, clean, and be willing to share but when they get into a relationship they shouldn't have to!  Don't be afraid to stand on things you believe in no matter what society tells you.  I think the only way we can save our country is this way.  I don't know maybe I am way off here.

Gimme your thoughts!
