The American view of men is troubling. Either he's too much of a man and being demanding if he shares his views and acts as he sees needs to be, or what he does isn't enough (I know you did this, but can you do this too), or only do what is asked of him because what he chooses to do is not right, needed, and appreciated, or he's weak if he appears to care, or not sensitive if he appears not to. Men are a dying breed because society wants males, not Men.
My view: He’s not lying. Manhood has been attacked for a while now, and the attack isn’t letting up. Women are attempting to redefine manhood by saying what real men do/don’t do, men are becoming effeminate, etc. Some women support the emasculation of men because many of them don’t want thorough men, they want someone that will pander to them at his expense. Men are waking up and what happens? The term toxic masculinity is born. Masculinity is toxic if a man doesn’t do what a woman wants? Miss me with that. Just like men can’t define womanhood, women can’t define manhood.
