Here’s a hot take on the 2020 election. It turns out that the COVID-19 pandemic may have helped the Trump campaign “reach more masculine men.” If only there were more masculine men out there, we wouldn’t be hearing Joe Biden speak from his Office of the President-Elect right now.
Why did so many men stick with Trump in 2020? The COVID-19 pandemic may have given him a way to reach more masculine men. Many of those men actually liked Trump's "shrug it off" approach. My story @FiveThirtyEight w/ @sidney_b, feat new @amersurveyctr data https://t.co/Hruj05OTbN

That compelled actor and comedian Kumail Nanjiani, who considered the 2020 election an “existential threat” to himself and his family, to tweet that “traditional masculinity is a disease.” Wow, we knew toxic masculinity was bad, but traditional masculinity? Are they the same thing?

If you can’t picture Nanjiani, he’s the one on the left posing for the Hollywood Reporter’s story on the “Triumph of the Beta Male.”

Last night I fixed the dishwasher, stacked the woodpile, folded laundry and read my son a bedtime story. Traditional masculinity is awesome!

Agreed. It's time to reduce the poisonous testosterone down to 0
No more:
– Red meat & organs
– Joe rogan podcasts
– Hunting
– Barbells
– Sports games
– 6 pack absJust soy, porn and dad bods.
Finally women can rejoice when their husbands have bigger boobs than them

If masculinity was the problem, then kids growing up without father figures would be better off than kids with a dad in their lives.

WE NEED MEN! Not man-buns, not men-in-dresses, not skinny-legged-boys.
MEN. Courageous, dangerous, strong, bearded, dragon-slaying, God-fearing MEN.

To be traditionally masculine is to be a gentleman – to care for, love, and protect their families, even if it means taking on a heavier load for themselves. We need more traditional masculinity.

Can’t wait for the Kumail Nanjiani “action” figure from “The Eternals.” Wonder what it does?
