#masculinity

2025-12-19

There are some problematic messages and role-models influencing young men today.

We have this fan favourite in audio form now: 'Masculinityβ€”a case for courage' is conceived through a non-zero-sum lens and draws on modern thinkers who are having a more healthy conversation.

There's this tenacious idea that in an unequal society, those at the top are the winners. That is, if you manage to avoid oppression, and if you manage to do the oppressing yourself, then you've got yourself a good life.

I'm a white man in an affluent country, and I'm here to tell you why that's bullshit.

Whatever happened to #masculinity? Men used to wear breaches and periwigs and now people yearn for the era of Grey flannel suits. We don't even want to be peacocks anymore πŸ˜ͺ

"Violence is an overwhelmingly male endeavor. Is there any way to fix that? ...

As we talk about the 'boy crisis' and crises of masculinity and the rise of the reactionary male right – not to mention the politics and meaning of gender itself – it behooves us to understand why violence is such a male endeavor, and what we might be able to do to lessen it."

"They’re not killed by women in the workforce, or by not cleaning their rooms, or by people pointing out that toxic masculinity exists, or by trans people, or by Democrats who dare to point out that Gavin Newsom sucks. They’re killed by guns."

After several heinous and highly publicized mass shootings predictably done by β€” you guessed it: men β€” Noah Berlatsky responds to the never-ending "boys are at risk" and "masculinity is under siege" folderol by noting:

"Men aren't lonely. they just have guns.

Men are not killed by feminism. They’re not killed by femininity."

As a humorous riff off of the very Millennial buzzword "metrosexual", I wrote in my diary in 2022 that I was "Aragornsexual". A silly joke, but I haven’t stopped thinking about it since! Kicking off a series on my struggle with Performative #Masculinity https://jaredwhite.com/articles/aragornsexual

As a humorous riff off of the very Millennial buzzword "metrosexual", I wrote in my diary in 2022 that I was "Aragornsexual". Because of course.

And although it’s a silly joke, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since.

Herein lies the first installment in my new series on the lifelong struggle with Performative #Masculinity and the storied images of manhood in pop culture past and present.

"Save Our Kids" obviously doesn't cover White Boys, almost like it's an excuse to harass The Other, and they don't care much for the victims, they're just a prop.

Not a single 'activist', nobody calling for a Race War online.....

*Gasp
Paul Doyle was a violent POS and this wasn't his first offence.
Hence the 21 years....

Doyle's violent past

It can now be revealed that Doyle has previous convictions for
assault.

In the early 1990s, while serving in the Royal Marines, he was
convicted of biting off part of someone's ear during a fight in a pub.
He was discharged from the military at that time.

Police say they believe Doyle is a fan of Liverpool's city rivals Everton,
but that this was not a factor in what happened on 26 May.

However, the prosecution ruled out that the defendant's actions
were "driven by ideology".

Police investigations showed there was no problem with the vehicle,
and Doyle was completely sober and "free of all drugs", Mr Greaney
said.

The court was shown dashcam footage taken from the defendant's
car showing the attack.

Mr Greaney warned the court: "What we are about to display on the
screens is truly shocking."

There were audible gasps in the courtroom as the footage played.
Doyle could be heard repeatedly shouting at pedestrians to "move
out the f**** way" as he drove through crowds.

Consistently using his vehicle's horn, people could be seen trying to
jump out of the way, with some forced on to the bonnet of the car.
"press pre Doyle shouts as the footage continues.

By the end of the footage, people begin to attempt to run up to the
vehicle.

When the car stops, one man shouts, "get the f** out of the car".

The manosphere is no longer a fringe online phenomenon.

As a networked ecosystem of digital masculinity movements, it increasingly shapes cultural attitudes toward gender, power, and identity β€” with real-world consequences.

Understanding how it works matters.

The manosphere isn’t a sudden radical turn β€” it’s a gradual pull.

Self-improvement content slowly becomes grievance, resentment, and rigid identity. Algorithms reward escalation, not reflection.

Understanding this pipeline matters if we care about boys, men, and the future of online culture.

Imagine announcing to the world that women are not safe when you are around, that you cannot control yourself when 'feeemales' are near, and that's their fault.

My personal rules are in lifts are "don't fart or make eye contact", not weird shit like "don't you bitches get in an elevator with me and my dick!"

My college head coach had a personal rule that he would never be alone
with a woman, not even in an elevator. Some people thought it was
weird, unnecessary or overly pious. He considered it a guard rail for
himself to honor his wife, his faith and his responsibility to everyone in
the building. As a college athlete | didn't fully understand. As a grown
man, | get it. And I'm grateful.

They don't mention the ethnicity of this guy because bollock headed white men going berserk on public transport is the norm, not a newsworthy exception.
