"For men like me, spin is hard. Not just the workout, but the vulnerability: letting go of competition and leaning into the group, a dying of self so the room can revive."
A new essay by Nashville writer Raleigh McCool on #loneliness, #masculinity, and finding connection in #spin class: https://longreads.com/2024/09/05/spin-masculinity-loneliness-friendship/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social
A name that would make a steamy novel writer go "Nah, that one's a little too obvious."

#Emhoff is secure enough with his own #masculinity to sometimes prioritize his wife’s ambitions over his own.
What. A. Hunk.

Positive #masculinity is when praise for your father makes you want to cry.
I had to double check this, but it's true. The Penetrator starring Mark Hardin is a real series of novels.

The new youth poll released by Harvard Kennedy School's Institute of Politics finds a "pronounced" gap between the political views of young men and young women. Among young men, Biden's lead is six points; among young women, it's 33 points.
If young American men see Donald Trump as a role model for a masculinity they want to emulate and promote, then I wonder what kind of society they envisage building for themselves and everyone else.
Absolutely heartbreaking but urgently important letter to an unborn daughter on the crisis men are falling into and the fallout that follows.
A fantastic series on the crisis in masculinity courtesy of #ZetlandMag - really worth translating this piece. But the whole series is brilliantly done.

Another excellent video by Jessie Gender about the #history, #sociology and philosophical as well as political issues surrounding this idea and #gender in general. It is 2 hours-long, but really worth the time, because she's conveying such #empathy and #paedagogy, it is really heart-warming and intellectually stimulating! And if you can, please, support her work!
I was on a date once and the guy said something about his soda being served with a straw and can't they see he's a man.. I was all 'huh? but you also do have lips, so...?' and he said that sucking on a straw was like sucking dick.
So I asked him what sucking on his spaghetti was like, because isn't that like sucking on a bunch of dicks?
The rest of the meal consisted of him eating by tilting his head back and very carefully shaking spaghetti off his fork into his mouth
in this really awkward way that involved no sucking motion... BUT NOW HE LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GIVING SOMEONE A HAND JOB SO THEY'D CUM ON HIS TONGUE!
It was fucking hilarious to watch.
Hey dudes, just so you know: 90% of cases of men getting testosterone shots is not about a medical need. It's gender affirming care! And that's okay.
Don't oppose others doing the same.
