This is like your boss finding shit to do when there’s nothing to do.

    I mean, it’s kind of a bad thing when the literal whole point of Boy Scouts was to foster masculine qualities for boys. They had Girl Scouts for something else. And you could create a third Genderfree Scouts instead but no, they just got rid of Boy Scouts.

      Ah yes the masculine qualities of camping in the woods. Helping out the community, and doing crafts. Wait…

      Since when is messing around in the outdoors, helping out in the community, and making things masculine?

      Can’t wait to tell my mom she’s a man! And I’ll be sure to remind my dad who’s a lot more of a homebody and enjoys making experimental deserts he shoulda joined the girlscouts…

      Values are masculine and feminine as perceived by society not as a result of any inherent “energy”. Let people do what they want and don’t force labels down their throats.

        When did I imply people shouldn’t do what they want? Ah yes, the classic ‘make up a thing to get mad about’ activity of keyboard warriors.

        You’re basically being the “what is a woman?” guy. Masculinity and femininity can exist without being defined. Just let them be.
