Most violent crimes are committed by young males, around age 18 to 34 or so. But males of any age tend to have more of an interest in violence than females.

I believe this is how we are programmed as a species. Males had the job of defending the tribe, while females focused on protecting helpless babies.

The instinct to nurture and protect a small helpless creature is stronger in women. The instinct to ignore pain and danger and battle enemies is stronger in men.

These are obvious facts. But progressive ideology has been hiding from these facts for a while now. Instead of admiring the natural toughness of typical males, they want to turn men into psychological women.

Toughness and the ability to tolerate pain is not valued anymore. The same person who cries about how badly the Native Americans were treated by the settlers would be appalled by the extreme toughness of male Native Americans back then.

I believe the Trump phenomenon is largely motivated by a desire for male toughness, both from men and from women who love men.

Maybe one reason progressives hate Trump so much is his tough guy persona. And that might be one reason his followers love him so much.

Except Cadet Bonespurs isn’t tough.

He’s a thin-skinned, whiny, pudgy, baby who is also a coward.

The British guys got it right Whalen they made the Trump baby blimp with Trump wearing a diaper and holding a bell phone.

It’s a fake persona.

His followers have been hoodwinked, but I don’t have any sympathy for them.

Ok fine, you hate Trump, you are not alone in that. But he does symbolize a reaction against the feminization and wimpification of our society.

Interesting post until I got to the part about Trump being a tough guy. He is a wimp who doesn't want to let anyone know he is a wimp. His "tough guy persona" is just that, a persona. Anybody who actually believes he is an alpha male tough guy is gullible beyond belief. A person who presents himself as the victim in every situation is not tough. LOL.

Toxic masculinty is a term that gets thrown around a lot.

It's up to men to guide young men and steer them and guide them as necessary. It's what dad's, coaches, teachers do. The men that help to keep our society on track.

Trump and masculine toughness just doesn't equate. There is nothing tough about him. He's a bully because he's insecure and needs to control others. Bullies put others down to build themselves up to feed their insecurities. Trump can't take any kind of criticism though, so he has to lash out. Children do that. Masculine men do not.

Hate takes a ton of energy.

Trump isn’t worth the energy it would take to hate him.

No, he doesn’t.

The fake persona he is trying for might, but that isn’t the same thing at all.

People have been moaning about "feminizing society" for centuries.

As for the "wimpfication", you just outed yourself as a bigot against pushovers, weak, etc. NOT because the "wimps" and the "weak" consciously and deliberately set out to (or desire) hurt, harm, and degradation against others, but merely because it's an annoying, irritating, or otherwise inconvenient trait - practically the source code for bigotry (really, say you're irritated and annoyed at LGBT, different religions, academic learning disabilities, physical disabilities and see what kind of reaction you get).

...and I could use an even harsher description of that attitude, believe me.

I am talking about how I think his followers see him. And yes, you hate him. Progressives don't like the word "hate," because it has become connected with racism. But hate is something everyone feels, even progressives. And you HATE Trump.

There are various ways of being masculine. Being a loudmouth blowhard is one way.
