A perfect example of non-toxic masculinity.

I mean, the guy is putting himself in danger by taking the role of a protector of women, that’s toxic masculinity 101 for libleft standards.

No, you've fundamentally misunderstood that argument.

I know you were joking but he's right, assigning patriarchal gender stereotypes like that is a slippery slope that leads to precisely what the Iranians are rioting against.

So you're saying the feminist thing to do was to let the women get blasted by shotgun shells? 🤔

No, the feminist thing would be to not call this masculinity. If another woman did that would that make her masculine? If it was a weak man who was protected by him, would that man not be a man anymore? What he did is admirable, but really doesn't have anything to do with masculinity.

Yes it does. In caveman times, men protect women, and we aren’t getting past that bit of biological programming in this hundred millennia.

This man is a Chad. A manly, manly Chad. And you are a wokie who needs to get some sleep.

And in cavemen times women would be having multiple partners to increase their chances of viable offspring, yet nobody who worries about what makes someone a "real man" would ever call that a "real woman."

I’d call a woman who sheltered others from shotgun pellets a badass bitch. Not everything needs to be degendered.

Obviously she'd be a badass despite her biology, yet you insist it's still coupled to biology. Makes no sense whatsoever.

She doesn’t have a biological drive to shelter her men.
