    Just read “Masculinity is inherently attractive” in a person’s bio on an app, so I presume he’s just come to from a long coma. In which case, I guess good for him for getting right back in the game — but he’s in for some surprises.

        Lol. This gay guy is EXERCISED that I questioned masculinity being “inherently attractive.” 😂 (But, he just wanted his followers to echo his view, so he RTed with comment into his timeline, but never actually responded to anything. Sigh.)pic.twitter.com/FVcNOzVlFH

        Anyway, this is dumb. Obviously, over the past several months — if you weren’t already aware — we’ve seen time and again examples of so-called masculinity being ridiculously unattractive. Which was the obvious point of my tweet.

        But, the point within gay spaces, and the reason why the line was ridiculous on that front, was the “inherently.” Obviously, masculinity can be attractive. But, it just obviously can be unattractive at other times, in other ways, and to other people.

        There are positive manifestations of masculinity, not only toxic ones. Its a debate worth having, for both men & women. Just as there is an ongoing debate over what society views as "norms" for femininity, some of which I personally think are toxic.

        Masculinity can be attractive! Sure. The idea of it being “inherently” attractive is just a mess on many levels.

        you would think in the year of our lord *2018* gay men would finally get it into our heads that masculinity is no more a virtue than femininity... gay folks have a lonnnnnggg ways to go yet.

        I think some people are inherently attracted to masculinity just the same as not. I prefer a "man's man" (only term I could think) but my sister prefers metrosexuals. We've always been that way. Isn't that inherent?
