Makes sense.

Men don't seem to appreciate ornreapedr their part of the reproductive process as part of that expression of hyper masculinity. You have your own link to primal life force because while women give birth, they're not creating children by themselves.

Even though the male participation in the creation of life is less labor intensive, if you will and more about sexual pleasure, the labor involved by both parties after birth is by choice.

Many men make poor choices here. They devalue their own contributions and participation, then blame women because they eventually had to agree with the male take and move on with our lives, after literal decades of begging and pleading for men to rethink that ideology.

I remember my dad brushing my hair, rocking me to sleep when I was sick, keeping boys from harassing me, helping me put Bob down so he wouldn't suffer after the neighborhood boys beat him to death and threw him up in a tree for me to find and then holding me while I sobbed my heart out. And so forth and so on.

My dad respected his reproductive potential. IMHO, men who embrace hyper masculinity are derelict fathers. I think this current wave on loneliness and despair amongst younger generations is one of the results of that dereliction and disrespect of meaningful masculinity.
