True. But how often is the reverse even IMPLIED, let alone explicitly stated in the same manner?

The fact is that it basically ISN’T. Our culture has been taught to HATE men. Name a pop culture character from the 90s or after that ticks all the boxes:

1) is a man

2) is intelligent and capable

3) is married with children

4) is BOTH respected by his family within the home AND other men outside the home

When you notice that men are not allowed to be all 4 things in media despite that being the ideal man definitionally, only THEN can you understand the sea of feminist man hating most of us fish are swimming in without realizing it.

men should be looking up to other real men in their own communities instead of whatever fictionalized, dramatized, made up characters the entertainment industry is showing to make a buck.

Why should I bother naming characters from a TV show when I can name a bunch of real men that have direct influence on my life?

You are missing the point completely.

The point is that our culture has no problem propping up women. And most of the men, statistically, that WOULD fit all 4 boxes, are going to be “conservative”. But our society has no problem casting these IRL men as either dangerous, evil, or stupid for the very traits they should be admired for.

Just being interested in “fitness” is now considered to be “right wing”. That’s not even including the invented nonsense of “toxic masculinity” among others. And before you go “that’s just online, go touch grass”… that’s life! That’s culture now, whether it affects you personally or not, for most of the men and women young enough to be trying to date right now in the first place.
