      was discussing introducing makeup to girls with @selentelechia last night and realized I would be so fucked if we have daughters and something awful happens to selene not even "how to apply well" but the broader philosophical and semiotics of makeup theres a Lot going on there

      none of these ideas are new but the extent to which Feminism at some point veered toward "just become more masculine lol" suddenly actually grinding my gears

      and the pressure is real!!! @selentelechia was worried abt having a relatively hard time doing [traditionally masculine domain thing] and I said "what I can just handle that it's fine!!!" and she said but but it feels like CHEATING like you HAVE to do this or your a BAD LADY

      I guess this is probably just a subset of "everything permitted is mandatory" old: women cant do men stuff brief moment of glory: women can do men stuff, awesome! soon: women have to do men stuff or they are GENDER TRAITORS

      idk this is a view from outside men legit seem to have it easier theres maybe just no pressure for me to do stuff they werent already doing or didnt want to do like "oh NOOOOOO now men may hang out with their KIDS a lot" gosh what a shame for me to be expected to do this

          dunno about this? preexisting pressure on men to perform traditional masculinity only became stronger with feminism, seems (as it stands anyone who advocates or defends traditional masculinity pilloried as a heretic, but anyone who actually doesn't do it scorned & reviled)

          & what's worse, bc it's women who are the overwhelming source of pressure to perform masculinity, in past male-only spaces could be a respite (to some degree) but feminism included lots of attacks on those now very little escape for men from women's judgment, which is pitiless

          Similar to "oh no women have education now how will men ever recover from having interesting convos on first dates" and "it's feminist for women to ask out men, men rekt"

          the main answer here is that the pressure you are talking about is very far from universal - if it were actually universal "feminine" behavior would be practically extinct 1/n

          the vast majority of people happily use gendered reasoning about stuff all the time and don't hold to a rigorous and consistent philosophy of complete erasure, even if they sometimes emit stuff that sounds like they endorse it 2/n

          Growing up bullied and hated for being unmanly... being short, unathletic, with poor eyesight was rough. I had a thing for designing stuff, a decent IQ (tested well but didn't know that then), a romantic, and talking too much. So I got spit on and called f****t every day.

          Now, I'd be embraced to death by a group I was never a member of. Which is essentially the same thing. Good news is my wife considers me masculine and I'm in better shape than the guys from high school. I never go to reunions to show off. From my youth:pic.twitter.com/72Xcrnk2Kq

          "easier" is a slippery term. I get what you're saying though. Part of it may be that men generally give less of a shit.
