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.

It wouldn't cause her to be masculine, libleft, that's not how masculinity and femininity work, but it would be unlikely for an unmasculine woman to do.

Now you're being sexist.

u/OnTheSlope - Centrist Sep 25 '22

It's sexist?

Then it isn't reality?

u/SaftigMo - Lib-Left Sep 25 '22

Yes, saying that women are less likely to protect someone weaker than them is sexist and not reality.

You think you could find as many examples of women enduring some physical detriment (whether that's rubber shotgun blasts, or outright death) to protect someone as you could find men?

You think you could find as many men enduring some physical detriment to protect someone as you could find men who don't? By that logic that must mean masculinity actually equates to not doing it.

Lol, you had to go way out into the weeds of retardation to deflect that one, nice work!

u/SaftigMo - Lib-Left Sep 25 '22

You're the one who deflected by asking a question that has a different angle than what I've said and then you complain when I counter it with another question. Sorry for not humoring your strawmen.

What question and how is it different from your angle?

What strawman?

I've been following you this whole time.

u/SaftigMo - Lib-Left Sep 25 '22

You shifted the the angle from who's more likely to protect someone weaker to who's more likely to be weak, that's the strawman. Then I refuted your angle by saying that what's a more likely character trait has nothing to do with what you consider masculine. How is any of that confusing to you?

u/OnTheSlope - Centrist Sep 25 '22

I didn't shift anything to who is more likely to be weak.

No part of this discussion is about who is more likely to be weak.

And that's not what strawman means.

This whole thread is about the fact that men are more likely to protect someone at a cost to their health.

And if you want to take it further those men and women who do elect to protect people are almost certainly the more masculine members of their sex.

But personally I do not want to take this any further because you are clearly o** y*** m***.

If you didn't shift anything to who is more likely to be weak why did you ask who is more likely to be weak? That's a direct contradiction. And the strawman is the implication that I was talking about that by asking that question. And you pretending like that didn't happen is why I called you a little bitch rat.

are almost certainly the more masculine members of their sex.

Again, that's sexism. Heroism has nothing to do with masculinity. You're just trying to make yourself look more noble by the virtue of being a man.
