5 Ways Disavowing Masculinity Changed My Life
Popcorn3

Quote:Robert Reece has found that ignoring the Man Code has improved his life enormously.

Not only does traditional masculinity oppress women but it also severely restricts the agency of men (a topic, I’ve written about in the past in the context of straight man love and hip-hop), often in simple, taken-for-granted ways. Straight men go to extreme lengths to perform masculinity. They avoid a wide variety of activities that they arbitrarily deem feminine or “gay” without analyzing the detrimental effects of this type of gender policing. Often mundane, seemingly inconsequential activities are heavily policed, inhibiting men’s ability to live freely day-to-day. While it’s also important to show men the macro level benefits of feminism and disavowing traditional masculinity, I thought it would be fun to reveal the little ways that my life changed when I stopped trying to perform traditional, patriarchal masculinity. So here it is: the 5 MOST Mundane Ways Disavowing Masculinity Changed My Life.

RE: 5 Ways Disavowing Masculinity Changed My Life
One of the only points I'm usually 100% willing to concede to the feminists is that in public places the women's restrooms should be equipped with more toilets than the men's on account of the biomechanics of taking a piss.

If anybody forced me to pee sitting down I would probably do it on the carpet. I will not be domesticated.

To learn who rules over you, notice who you cannot criticize.

Quote:5) I Admit When I’m Sad

Jesus Christ, not this shit again...

Why do all these chodes who disavow masculinity always argue against some cartoon idea of it that doesn't exist in real life? I've never had a problem with admitting when I'm sad, touching other men or admitting other men are attractive: all within reason of course. For that matter, no other guy friend of mine has ever had problems with these things either.

As for the whole sitting down to piss thing, I'm sick of hearing the lie that it's "neater." Unless you have hypospadias---or you're so fucking fat that your FUPA is enveloping your dick like a wad of pizza dough---the chance of you missing when you urinate is slim to none. It's like the argument that men should get circumsized because it's more hygienic, because pulling back your foreskin to wash is apparently just too much effort for men to handle.

Whenever I read GMP, I'm keep thinking its a satire, like Compliment and Cuddle. WTF do those guys seriously believe men have to prove to society they are betas, cripes, all these guys probably sit down to pee:

I keep some good literature in the shithouse.

And is it really multitasking if I piss while I shit?

Or are there guys so worried about this that they have to first finish shitting, wipe their ass, and only then can they turn around and piss afterwards?

Not a bad idea, but how do you piss for more than 15 seconds?

If you were our hallowed ancestors, you had to finish reading the page in the almanac anyways before you were allowed to rip it out and use it to wipe.

Today, overhydration. And the occasional bout with Octoberfest-sized drinks.

Big bladder.

A side benefit is my balls get aired out while I peruse Hawthorne.

Sometimes I sit down to piss and shit when I'm reading a big book.

The other day I went through a couple of Lovecraft's stories while on the john.

I'm surprised no one has brought up the Bathroom Reader.

I must have read at least ten of them when I was growing up.

I have a couple copies of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader that I peruse while taking a shit.

Hilariously enough I've taken shits in the afternoon while reading that book, then used something I learned in it as a talking point later in the evening.

The only time I ever sit down to piss is if I'm dead tired, like, woke up in the middle of the night with a 2L bladder needing to be emptied.
