This is a thing where I feel like there's got to be a great evolutionary theory for this but I don't know what it is. Is it male value is more centered around strength behaviors, while women value is more centered around reproduction (which is much more stable)?

Because for the most part masculinity is defined by what you don't do, not what you do.

basically because society sees being guy good and being woman bad
-
also bc herd relate man with work and woman with no work so doing work being a woman isn’t that bad while doing not work things being a man who’s supposed to do work things: very bad

The traditional feminist answer is that we live in a society where feminine=bad therefore a man who is feminine is bad and a woman who is not very feminine is kinda neutral.

Because traditionally, the male role is seen as superior to the female one. If a woman wants to take on the male role you can at least respect her for giving it a try (futile as it may be), whereas for a man to take on the female role is just humiliating.

This seems like a good theory. I think I have a mild hesitation around it but I'm not sure where it's coming from. I'll think about it more

I'm betraying my views here, but I assume it's because effeminating a man lowers his station, while masculinizing a woman increases hers. Doesn't traditional society place more value on a man than on a woman?
