    Jeet Heer Retweeted Candace Owens

    The longstanding orientalist stereotype was that the West was home of rugged manhood & east was feminine (luxurious, decadent, etc). It's interesting to see this script being flipped now (proof of how unmoored from reality these stereotypes are).https://twitter.com/RealCandaceO/status/1327691891303976961 …

    There is no society that can survive without strong men. The East knows this. In the west, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a coincidence. It is an outright attack. Bring back manly men. https://twitter.com/voguemagazine/status/1327359624803209228 …

        Never mind that "East" and "West" are arbitrary, colonialist fictions.

        Romans considers the Greeks effeminate, who considered the Persians effeminate, who considered the Chinese effeminate It's crazy how quickly that flips when convenient

        Indeed. The stereotypes are silly and her views are deranged. But I wonder if she's looked at any K-pop groups lately....

        He showed so little interest in women. I had thought the history indicated he procreated only under duress, and in the interest of the state. His mother begged him to sleep with a courtesan she selected!

        It’s also fantastically wrong. Much of the attributes and norms generated by the “feminization” they speak of has wide spread use in eastern societies. Make up for men, manicures, and all the rest proliferates in those cultures like any other.
