"In order to make sure a guy doesn’t lose his “man card,” gender roles and gender presentation must be limited to two."
"If any lines are not clearly visible, a cis het man might accidentally cross one of them.
And that must be avoided at all costs."

"La culture sportive masculine se fait mécène de la culture du viol depuis trop longtemps – en témoignent les nombreux procès et sanctions pour violences sexuelles auxquels ont fait face des sportifs dans les dernières années – et Heated Rivalry vient jeter un pavé dans la mare en osant déroger à cette perception de la masculinité." 👌 https://pivot.quebec/2026/01/30/la-lnh-bien-loin-de-heated-rivalry

"Is Sexual Ambiguity the New Metrosexuality?
These days, leaving room for interpretation seems all the rage."

"But there’s something else on display in Minneapolis, too. People are demonstrating real courage — and it isn’t the guys in Kevlar. Ordinary people are confronting the men with guns, standing up for their neighbors and their community and the things their country was supposed to represent. Those people are defending the vulnerable, putting themselves at risk, organizing and coordinating and acting together."
"There they are in full battle rattle, camo and helmets and body armor and guns, covering their faces, cosplaying like they’re about to enter Fallujah circa 2004 when in fact they’re taking down some grandfather or smashing some mom’s car windows because she didn’t get out of their way fast enough.
They’re amped up on all the warrior talk, sucking in their guts as they point their guns at ordinary citizens. They have no emotional control."
"Talk however you want, do whatever you want, grab women however you want. To paraphrase Trump on the 'Access Hollywood' tape, When you’re a man, they let you do it. You have no obligations to others; satisfying your own desires is what matters. ...
These guys are wimps."
"If all those disaffected young men Republicans have been working so hard to appeal to are looking for a good model of masculinity — and just as important, the absolute worst model — they should pay close attention to what is going on in Minneapolis....
In the version of masculinity MAGA offers to men, one of the key elements is that you get to do what you want and nobody can stop you, especially women."

"Lesbian agitators, such as Good, are its nemeses. Christians are the lifeblood of The Homeland. 'Stupid Muslims' are its cancer. A characteristic of The Homeland is that its foes must be subhuman—members of the LGBTQ+ community are 'freaks,' disagreeable women are 'ugly' pigs, and the residents of DC are 'cockroaches.'”

"Securing The Homeland is the central feature of the Trump administration. In Los Angeles and Chicago, Trump seeks to cleanse it. With Greenland and Venezuela, Trump seeks to expand and enrich it. Heterosexual men are the rightful defenders of The Homeland."

Thinking about the pathetic Pickup Artist movement where insecure men try to manipulate women into one-night stands. And I realise that I'm not the right person to judge these clowns.
Because, and I'm saying this in the most conceited tone possible, women have made it quite clear to me ever since I was 15 that they kind of like me. Why would I try to manipulate them? I never needed a PUA manual.

Steve Rose's valuable report today about the AI "slopaganda" emanating from the White House is worth it for the ludicrous image of Trump as a muscled Luke Skywalker alone.
Kevin MacFarland offers valuable analysis of the timeline of radicalization that led to Anthony Kazmierczak's attack on Ilhan Omar.
Note the key points: two divorces followed by apparent rage when a Black girlfriend broke up with him: a man with employment difficulties, financially unstable, apparently unable to maintain healthy relationships with women.
Perfect pickings for MAGA — and rage against Omar.

"And for me as a black woman, that image of her being protected really touched my heart because that's something that is so difficult."
"The whole thing about Ilhan Omar, I think there are going to be very few articles about that because I don't think white men are going to write about that topic and how she must have felt in that moment. But there's this picture where her security guard or security guard is sort of protecting her from this this person."
