Masculinity so fragile a stiff breeze would shatter it.

[–] supafuzz@hexbear.net 58 points 9 months ago

Living people
are soft and tender.
Corpses are hard and stiff.
The ten thousand things,
the living grass, the trees,
are soft, pliant.
Dead, they’re dry and brittle.
So hardness and stiffness
go with death;
tenderness, softness,
go with life.
And the hard sword fails,
the stiff tree’s felled.
The hard and great go under.
The soft and weak stay up.

"Stiff breeze" sounds kinda gay.

This isn’t universal. I work with some downright chuds, and they will say good morning to me. South texas, land of the manly man.

South texas, land of the manly man.

Where men are men and sheep are nervous.

[–] Denvil@lemmy.one 37 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Cincinnati Ohio, and this concept of don't say good morning to guys is entirely foreign to me

[–] M68040@hexbear.net 8 points 9 months ago

I was gonna say, most of my coworkers skew older and this is a pretty usual morning thing. They take this stuff a lot less seriously than a lot of people online do. Kind of refreshing after assuming most people were this anal about social norms

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

"Brandon said hello to me."

"Yeah. That's understandable." In a low voice - "You know... He's..."

"Gay?"

"Nah, South Texas."

"But I don't hear it in his voice."

"Mom's from the North."

"Creepy."

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 51 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Construction sites are gay as hell then

[–] 420blazeit69@hexbear.net 20 points 9 months ago

Well yeah look at that one guy in The Village People

Is it gay to talk to other man? thonk

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 21 points 9 months ago (1 children)

having a man's voice in your ear is bottoming

REAL MEN get on the ground and start 69ing when they meet another man.

[–] Raebxeh@hexbear.net 29 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Like dogs sniffing each others assholes as greeting

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 43 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The tweeter and the redditor are the same person.

You can create bait content so fucking easily. Shit loads of the anti-SJW stuff back when that was the word of the week was actually far right fuckheads making the posts themselves sounding like some ridiculous cartoon version of a feminist that they have in their heads. Then they would repost that shit to places like tumblrinaction and have it do the rounds on the internet.

It's so fucking easy to create hatred for groups via creating cartoon bait online and making people believe that they're real people despite the fact you will never ever ever meet a real person behaving that way.

[–] rootsbreadandmakka@hexbear.net 17 points 9 months ago

yeah I was pretty sure that reddit post was a copypasta?

Greeting another man in the morning?? What, did you wake up in his bed?

[–] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago (2 children)

The only appropriate way for heterosexual men to greet each other is to say "Good Evenin" the way Levon Helm does at the start of The Last Waltz.

[–] pumpchilienthusiast@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

god I am so gay for young levon

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 2 points 9 months ago

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Saying "what's up" to man is pretty gay. All male interactions with another male are supposed to be inherently violent. Next time, say "what's up, fuckface?" In order to not come off as a raging homosexual.

[–] CTHlurker@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Remember to try to stick a finger in his ass in order to prove that every interaction between men is based on an implicit threat of violence.

[–] BovineUniversity@hexbear.net 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Are you saying you want to fuck my face, bro?

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 12 points 9 months ago

The man that believes this is a self-loathing, closeted, gay.

My most retvrn opinion is that this guy should live in a time like that of the Italian Wars, when not greeting someone on the street is grounds for an immediate duel followed by a 200 year blood feud.

[–] LeZero@hexbear.net 5 points 9 months ago

Staaaay cool, fellas

[–] Hello_Kitty_enjoyer@hexbear.net 5 points 9 months ago

the last thing a chud hears before he gets Leninated

spamton-stare "Good morning. You are deeply unserious."

[–] GladimirLenin@hexbear.net 3 points 9 months ago

Howdy, strictly platonic pardner.
