Yasss, slay king
How about global supply chains for food and clothes? How about the social systems such as healthcare and education? How about infrastructure like the internet or roads? Does each “independent” man do it all on their own?
What if I told you the joke wasn’t that [gender a] does everything for themselves, but that [gender b] and [gender a] do the same amount while [gender a] doesn’t break an arm jerking themselves off about it.
Not my post or joke so hang onto your seething hatred please.
Men don’t call themselves strong and independent because society already expects them to be strong and independent. It’s not news. It doesn’t need to be said. Thanks to the patriarchy, it’s unfortunately news when a woman is strong and independent. Even if most of them have been strong and independent for a long time.
Doesn’t feel like news to me when women are strong and independent though. I think that’s the patriarchy you’re referencing, no?
Men do everything for themselves? HAHAHAHAHA
You’ll never hear a man brag about being strong and independent?
Talk about a basement dweller perspective…
Alternate title: “A man child realizes that society imposes roles on people based on gender and throws an ill-advised tantrum about the roles assigned to him.”
A male human is pretty much solely judged on his ability to be strong and independent. Men crowing about their prowess in those skills is pretty much the basis of the human mating ritual for as long as we have existed.
In the past 100yrs we have been eroding the strictness of those roles and women are now also allowed to take pride in those characteristics.
Ken needs to sit the fuck down now.
