"The maddening aspect of #RealMenWearMasks isn’t the message but what’s behind it: We’ve reached the point of this polarized pandemic where our current plan for salvation is convincing certain recalcitrant men that wearing masks is the testosteroney thing to do.

Do you have an unmasked man in your life? You could,the article suggests, make sure he had some “tough” looking masks, perhaps with “camouflage” or “shark teeth.” Or, you could pull him in with a little “benevolent sexism,” i.e. encouraging him to think of mask-wearing as a “paternalistic” and “chivalrous” act — a way for the mask-wearer to think, “I’m being a hero.”"

But the messaging behind all of this is crap. It presents mask-wearing as something cool that men can individually do in order to be rugged heroes, deserving of accolades for their brave, manly choices."

Guaranteed anyone who says "real men..." is a cuck or a bitch.

It is the same faggot jews that manipulate Christians by uttering their demands with "real Christians..."

Yep. They already do that here in LA. Mexican population, so of course you have a luchadore wrestler in his wrestling mask wearing a mask with the sub titles that "even luchadores wear masks" or something.

They went from being polite to being aggressive to being manipulative.

Masks represent brain-dead conformity. The best way to rebel: eat your meat, throw that mask away, exercise, get married, have a family, be responsible, have a career, raise your children right, go to church.

If you rather be a faggot: eat the bugs, live in the pod, wear the mask, live in fear.

PROBLEMATIC. Men don't need to threaten womxn any more than they already do with penis extensions for their faces to harass trans female POCs.
