Why masculinity is so fragile

from the perspective of a black man in America:

I believe Masculinity is so fragile for a lot of men because of the way they were taught what it was. This rigid set of rules/ traits to being a man that left no room for compromise. 1. Be strong physically 2. Be dominant and assertive 3. Don’t show emotion other than anger or happiness with only a few exceptions. And then only for a brief moment. Too long and that’s not manly 4. Be successful/the bread winner 5. Suck it up. Men don’t cry, men don’t hurt. 6. Love/ be attracted to women. (Any support to those men that don’t is a violation). 7. Men don’t *insert action stereotyped for only women*. And a lot of other misogynistic and homophobic things I would sit here for hours listing. If you were to lack in any of these traits, violate any of these rules, then your validation as a man came into question. And in the same respect your identity.

A lot of it has become ingrained, it will take time and effort for a lot of men to unlearn these things.

It has to start with their sons. They have to teach them differently. Love them differently. Be caring and affection. That doesn’t make you soft. It shows that you’re human. Too many of our little brown babies grow up without outward displays of love and affection. They move thru the world feeling unworthy and unloved. We have to teach our babies to be better than the generations that preceded them.

True. We need to teach the younger generation so the change can be made.

Please keep the flood victims in Somalia and Ethiopia in your duas. Somalia is already experiencing acute malnutrition and an increase of displacement. InshaAllah, I hope this cycle breaks soon.

hotline bling is such a good bop but don’t fuck with a hotline bling ass nigga that don’t wanna see u have sexual agency and expect u to stay home crying over him while he fuck other hoes.

ninthwardjawn-deactivated201902

any nigga that says to u ‘why u don’t hit me up no more’ is a hotline bling ass nigga. any nigga that tries to paint u as ‘bad’ for having sex with multiple niggas or hitting the club is a hotline bling ass nigga. any nigga that texts u ‘hey how u been’ after u posted that lil fiyah instagram pic is a hotline bling ass nigga. pay attention to the signs sis.

hotline bling ass niggas don’t want a relationship with u but they still feel a sense of entitlement when it comes to ur body and ur sexual agency. beware of the niggas that suffer from the hotline bling ass nigga syndrome.
