The male to female ratio in India got them suspect off top:heh:....However we spin it there are standards for masculinity and femininity,some cultures know better than others:mjlol:....Any man willing to not only stray from his societys standards,but jump over to the side of femininity doesn't care about his manhood and how he's perceived.

See that's just it, to me at least, one of the MAIN components of "manhood" to me is being able to cast aside other peoples perceptions of you if they inhibit who you really are, to what you want to do with your life....that is much more brave and "manly" to me than conformity for the sake of keeping up appearance. ESPECIALLY in the face of societies standards being that a lot of them really don't serve us, the idea that you gotta fukk this amount of women, or beat up this amount of people to be masculine has got a lot of these nikkas playing roles that they aren't really cut out for all because they so much about how other men perceive them.

You a real nikka so I know you understand how one can grow up with the warped perception that DOING TIME makes you a man or a whole host of other stupid, self destructive shyt..I grew up in a setting where caring how nikkas perceived me could have put me in a box, even with me avoiding that fate, I still did things that were outside of my true nature to adhere to societal standards of manhood that had a detrimental effect on my life going forward from there which in hindsight really was the LEAST important thing to be considering at that time in my life...that Clint Eastwood complex doesn't work for nikkas like it does white folks.

You're a smart cat, I would think you would have caught what he was getting at even if you disagreed with it.

He's saying that the THEATER involved in propping up the social constructs of masculinity and how much you adhere to them shouldn't determine how much of a man you are, manhood is something you define and thus emulate (perform) based on whatever concept/ideals you've been exposed to.

Men in India hold hands when they walk down the street, that's not "manly" here in the states, then again the world is bigger than your (not you personally) particular reality box.

Funny shyt is, kid cudi can wear a baby shirt and all of a sudden he's not a man/masculine enough...let some transexual put on a dress, make up...even get surgery to present themselves as a woman and people will line up to tell them how much of a man they actually are

:heh:
I completely understand that...but that sentence was some blatant trickery and emotional string pulling.

Rather suspect IMO

Probably so, then again I skimmed through it as I really don't give a shyt what anybody working for COMPLEX has to say...I swear I don't even remember that site exists until I come to the spot and see another thread about it. Stop validating these pricks if you don't respect their opinions.

Dope post,and I feel you...but the self destructive shyt that we grew up with are moreso a product of hypermasculinity in our culture,thats something a lot of us have to work out on our own as we grow up gradually because it is destructive,im still working on it....So maybe we can say the hypermasculinity in the environments we grew up in are not all that healthy and we overexaggerate the ideas of manhood....But we can also say a man who is willing to jump the shark and participate in things that society has agreed are womanly/feminine I don't consider that to be brave at all,he goin too damn far at that point:russ:...It certainly could just be a generational thing where they have a different idea of masculinity....just like we had a different idea of masculinity than the generations that came before us,only difference is they thought we looked and acted like fools instead of homos:heh:....Its weird two generations only a decade apart have two separate ideologys on what masculinity is.....ours is hypermasculine and theres is androgynous

Neither is healthy,but I take issue with the writer pretending this new bullshyt is healthy and the sign of a REAL MAN:mjlol:....I can never believe some of this shyt is ok,no man should be willing to participate in some of this shyt knowing what a man knows in his gut.....so yeah ill go with BOTH generations is fukked up:pachaha:...but with that said

hypermasculine>>>>androgynous in terms of manhood,the acceptance of this downward trajectory of masculinity towards femininity has to alarm us....it very well may shoot right back up to being hypermasculine in the next generation,but I don't agree we shouldn't point out "Yall act alot more like bytches than we used to:patrice:" in case its a downward spiral,its a warning and observation made all outta love

what's homoerotic about it? it's just a factual observation about the infiltration of black communities by these so-called liberals.

The extreme focus on being a man, which is represented by a testosterone-dripping, muscular mandingo, as opposed to a boy. Then there's the fear of being 'infiltrated' which is not so far off from action movie logic (hence ending the clip with Arnold) in which the focus is on the male body and how it reflects the hard rigid logic of masculinity. Men are supposed to be impenetrable, be it by weaponry or phalluses. When Arnold jams a pipe through the bad guy's chest in Commando, it's him going "I've got the bigger dikk and I've just fukked you with it." At a certain point the whole thing is just ridiculous, the obsession with presenting as overly masculine.

I also like that the ultimate sign of gayness is asking if anybody wants coffee, presumably from Starbucks.
