No. In my world masculinity is neutral, as in femininity.

Men are not masculinity. They don't own your list of "positive" attributes. Women and femininity also imbue creativity, positive leadership, invention, building and maintain civilization, and so on. And also motherhood.

Thise things are just not recognized or referred to with thr same labels as they are when men do the exact same things.

So you're not ascribing positivity to those traits. You scribing positivity WHEN MEN DO THEM and therefore to men for doing them or "owning" the rights to claim societal regard for them based on your manhood.

Which brings us back to....what is being promoted here is that men get and deserve this tangible reward of automatically being regarded in a positive manner based solely on the fact that they are men while women are simultaneously denied that regard and demonized, seen in an automatic negative manner based solely on the fact that we are women.
