[Culture: The Masculine Man of yesteryear vs the Masculine woman of today.]
As I listen to Joker in his video about Chuck Norris (and his appreciation) it got me thinking about how masculinity has gradually been on the decline in movies ever since at least the mid 2000s (at least in the west)
When you go back the definitive Era of masculinity being the 80s had everything, Jacked men, action up the ass just a time that you old boomers and younguns (like me) would see in movies years later or as you grew up from your parents. Even the 90s still had its share of action movies but no Era perfectly defined it as the 80s.
Be it TV shows or movies there was always a strong, stoic man leading an as showing what it was like to be a man's man. As the years went on action that masculinity would slowly be sidelined for men being the but of the joke or dumbed down where female action started to pick up.
With that, the traits that would be seen as manly would turn out into female characters and it would also brainwash a long list of girls into thinking that Hollywood overlaps with real life.
Hollywood finding place in the world as was intended by the commies that had taken hold of it, brainwashed those that would consume it, particularly women.
Nowadays aside from the usual 304 shit with wahmens we also have toxic bitches with personalities as revolting as a pile of shit. Particularly attitude.
I'd say aside from the normal romcoms and female focused dramas we have female focused action movies to blame.
With females like Charlize Theron, scarlet Johanson in female action roles and with their theatrics in action it often leads to women thinking that they can go toe to toe with men.
It's led way to women pressing their luck and often learning the hard way that If you mess with the right person you will get beat back on your ass.
With the Masculine female we have also seen the death of or decline of the Masculine male.
Most men nowadays are either seen in one of two ways, either weak and smart or big and stupid. The men being destroyed where men can no longer be strong stoic and smart. They either have to none of them or a fraction of them.
It's mostly why we have seen movies focus less on strong men and more on jokes of men. Why we have seen less of the femine woman of the 80s and away from the beauty of the female body, for women that want to be able to fight men.
As the feminist culture has gone into full swing over the past 20 years the most we have seen our strong men be destroyed and our feminine women be given an extra pump of silver screen roids.
The dip away from the feminine woman is why we have also seen in games more women looking like ugly men a mix of politics and misandry to destroy our hobbies but also to try and destroy the concept of the feminine woman. Which is also why you see characters with proportions that would match a loli in anime.
Back then we looked back on strong men as role models, be it fathers, uncles grandparents or a guardian that helped to Raise us. Nowadays with gender dynamics reversed, is it not surprising where you have testosterone levels on the decline and women acting more like men than some men themselves? It's a shame and it's been propagated.
It's just nice to see that despite all the man and God haters there is still very much love for the man who was seen as an icon of masculine men. 🙏
They get what they deserve, they are all about representation until they stop getting work. They gatekept others from Asian rolls and cry when they don't get any other roll than Asian characters.
