Funky007@gayday It was honestly #Embarrassing, but at the same time, I kind of liked putting on this unintentional show for my #Boyfriend, as I could see he was enjoying it.
(#Embarrassing because it wasn’t expected, because I was having a private moment, and because when my #Ejaculation got triggered, I just couldn’t do anything about it. Of course, it’s not as if my #Boyfriend had never seen me cum or masturbate; it was the context that made it all #Embarrassing. But my #Boyfriend likes men, and he really enjoyed watching this display of #Maleness!)
AndrocatPerformative Gender is very easy to demonstrate with facts.
Take a Polish Working Class person - he performs maleness in a very different way than a Saudi Upper Class person does.
"How to be a Man" is a recipe, combining certain ingredients of mannerism and dresscode, and since these vary from place to place and from culture to culture, they simply cannot be called universal or intrinsic or inherent.
Isn't that completely obvious?
Nando161"#Trans #women will never be #free until #people stop having strong emotions about #penises. Like we, as a #society, have got to stop caring about dicks! #Dicks have to stop #symbolizing #maleness, #obviously, but they also have to stop symbolizing #power, #dominance, #sexual agency and #aggression, #violence, and even #sex itself. Like trans women can’t be free if the very conceptual presence of a penis represents an intrusion(!) of unwanted(!) sexuality(!) in public life. Like that’s why trans women are abhorrent to both #male #chauvinists and #radical #feminists, #because both groups have extremely strong feelings about what a penis *represents*, and find the conceptual and actual presence of a woman with a penis to be simultaneously vile and nonsensical because they’ve loaded so much symbolic baggage onto both women and penises.
Anyway dicks are totally neutral #body parts and seeing a dick, or a bulge in a swimsuit, or simply knowing that there’s a dick somewhere in the same bathroom as you isn’t harmful or violent"

Mark HughesFor anyone looking for a better model of maleness or who wants help with any aspect of being a good or better man, I recommend joining a men's group, a men's shed, or if you're really up for it, doing the #NWTA weekend run by the #MankindProject.
Let's face it, which of us men couldn't do with some help there.
