Please tell me its not true. Are we really destroying masculinity in this country all in the name
of gender equality? Who is doing this?

I am a proponent of doing what makes you happy as long as it doesn't infringe on the rights of others.

If a man wants to wear makeup, Capri pants and carry a purse, I have no issue with that.

To each their own.

Your genetic code decides if you are a man. Makeup and Capri pants won't change your genetic code.

Masculinity is another story.

Who? That is impossible to answer with 100% certainty. But many good theories are out there.

First let us look at the food. It looks like certain GMOs and hormones in the food supply increase estrogen, not sure if they themselves have estrogen or trigger our bodies to make estrogen. I believe corn and soybeans are among the most wanted list for this claim. And corn and soybean is in everything most Americans eat, seriously look in the ingredients section, you be surprised at how everything has corn and soybean. For example most ketchup.

Second, media and culture. The promotion for men to become more sensitive and normalization to be gay. This is self explanatory I think.

Third, this is really out there and something I sort of made up and honestly don't believe but still interesting, technology. As men spend more time doing things like Ipad, video games, staying warm inside a house or car or building, driving everywhere instead of walking, never hunting for food, never growing their own food, etc This just takes men away from what our specie has been doing for so long. The human code, DNA, instinct or something must be going thru some rapid changes as our world changes.

Does it matter why? I mean really, it is happening and there is no stopping it. Our generation still will be mostly masculine, but every generation the males will become more and more feminized. Focus on your own family and control what you can control. Stay firm to your values.

The article doesn't say what kind of makeup. To me, that's kind of important. Are we talking stuff to cover up acne or are we saying blush? To me, one of them doesn't really scream feminine.

Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones tried to popularize men's make-up back in the early-mid 1970s. It did not take.

Gotta stimulate the economy somehow I guess. At least we have something new to laugh at.
