    Having emotions is gay as fuck.

    Unless it's the end of something badass like gladiator. Tears of toughness.

    I'm just quoting what you said and asking you a question about it and you're dancing like a Kunt.

    You claimed that this was a "shift."


    “9 in 10 respondents said that men should help others, 88% agreed that men should be open to new ideas, new people and new experiences. 8 in 10 felt it imperative that men give back to their community”

    Okay, it's a "shift." For it to be a "shift" then wouldn't there had to have been a time when those numbers weren't the norm? Don't blame me because you can't back up your mouth.

    You are one angry little man.

    There's a mission and there's crazy. You crossed into nutty a long tim ago.
    Okay I get it. He was just emoting and I'm "angry" for asking him how it is a "shift." I should realize he was just emoting and not ask him to explain what the fuck he is talking about. Way to come running with the ass tonguing Coug, I have to hand it to you.
    I didn't dive into the thread topic and DRGAF. So I didn't come running for anything other than to see if you're still at it. I got what I needed.

    You have to be a loon.

    Christ man.

    If you’re gonna go down, go down in a blaze of glory, eh Creep?

    Look. There's getting bogged down in a back and forth with someone on a few things here and there for a day or two.

    This is my opinion, and I'm fine with the millennials disagreeing, but I would suspect that many of those respondents answered the way they did because they aren't capable of being autonomous. They've been coddled to need the help of others on their lives to manage their emotions, etc. It's imperative to give back to the community because they need that community to exist for their own benefit, too.

    I think this is partially correct but you also need to take into account that that these millennial men have grown up in a society where they've been conditioned to tamp down their masculinity and where they are rewarded for giving the answers they gave in this survey. They've been socialized to be more like women and browbeaten into giving the answers they have given in this survey whether they really believe it or not.

    Millennial men may say it's important to give back to the community because they think that's what they should say but there's no evidence that they are actually doing it at any greater rate than earlier generations have done.

    In fact if you look at participation rates in service organizations like the Lions and Rotary Clubs membership numbers are down. Millennials most likely talk a big game about giving back and promote their volunteer work in the social media but they aren't actually doing it at a greater rate then men from earlier generations.

    Does this fucking Kunt talk about anything but me here? Sorry Coug, you already have Hondo for a boyfriend and I'm just not that into you.

    You know you've lost when your only argument is "but but but Hondo".
