Like, why does a gym attract so many dickheads. I’m just there minding my own damn business when I overhear dudes talking about how they are ‘going to get so much pussy for lifting’ and whatever dumb shit. It’s a constant stream of male garbage coming from all around you. My fault for not wearing headphones I guess.

Is that why you lift? Really? Are most gym bros just terminally insecure man children? Fucking hell man. Who unironically talks like that? I know I’m probably in a bubble as a sober, vegan communist but still.

      Yea it kinda did…

      The idea that dying in war or from incurable illnesses at a manufacturing job makes us manly men didn’t leave much space for emotional maturity.

        Its completely a disaster I agree, plus anger is the only socially accepted emotion for men to have. Its so strange, sadly it will take a long time for equity between the sexes to bring equality but I do have hope because as much as the fascists in the west want us to believe the world is ending, it is not, just theirs is, and thats okay
