40 years of research, done mostly by men, says that traditional masculine socialization (which has little to do with how men actually are -because we are all individuals) is indeed harmful - to men and to everyone else. You deciding it's not because that hurts your feelings is irrelevant. I can see no upside whatsoever to forcing men (or women) into a small box of acceptable traits and norms, policing, and harassing them if they don't conform, and otherwise telling other people who they should be. Anybody who thinks that's a healthy thing has a screw loose, and anybody who believes that shit is organic doesn't actually know anything about science or observable reality.

I don't have any more time to waste here. Bye now!
