there's nothing inherently wrong with healthy masculine energy. I'm in my third year transitioning and slowly starting to figure out what that is and what it means to me, and how it can be a part of my best possible self.
but… oh gods where do I even begin.

In response to this post@jasmine maybe it's not worth it to begin anywhere at all, anyone who gets it gets it already, anyone who needs it spelled out will be very exhausting :cirno_cry:
I'd ask who said it in the first place but people like that give off such horrible sleazy vibes that I'm probably avoiding them already.

In response to this post@jasmine
You're not the intended audience
Zuckerberg is playing to this huge audience for a grift going on all over social media:
Insecure usually younger men, who think masculinity and resentment are synonyms, and they are spellbound by angry edgelords who redirect grievances outward rather then the required genuine introspection
As an old guy I wish I could tell these insecure guys that masculinity is quiet strength, not squawking whiny sadists
But that doesn't get the clicks
@benroyce
what :akko_derp:
a trans woman not the intended audience of a transphobic incel!!!?
never

In response to this postmark et al aren't actually that great
when a tech bro with too much money to avoid sycophants says a bunch of superficial, insightless and even outright confused gender stuff, I think it's silly and nonsensical to assume that he's being clever and business-smart and that he's just pandering to a puerile audience and that he doesn't actually believe all the weird stuff that he's saying.
they're not that clever about gender. they're too busy being successful at capitalism and kyriarchy to think about stuff that actually means something to anyone.
the world would be a better place if rich white guys could be listened to and taken at face value, and thoroughly ignored whenever appropriate.
please remember that "facebook" is the name of a website where male students could rate the faces of female students. the inceldom has been right there in plain sight right in front of us all the time. the level of clever in calling a parent company "meta" is not adult.
these people are not actually good at anything worthwhile. they're just high-functioning bullies.

@jasmine It's always been painful to work in IT, with the overwhelming preponderance of men. There's the obvious social justice issue, and then there's the simple fact I like women and like being around women. In my current job, it's almost all men, and even on my commute for some reason most of the passengers on the train are men. It's almost surreal.
