Conformity on things that are hard and furthers the human race is my cup of tea. But I also don’t agree with your analysis, the conformity is primarily around not dabbling in anything that could be considered feminine/gay that I whole heartedly support. Other than that, masculinity encourages breaking the mold in every other facet of life.

As I’ve said, there’s only one way to be a straight man. Masculinity encourages conformity in all aspects of life.

How you dress, how you speak, how you walk, who you are friends with, what shows you watch, who you respect, how you show that respect, what you do, how you earn a living, how you have sex, how you obtain relationships. Everything, from life until death.

The perfect man is the perfect cog. He works, he doesn’t think too much, he walks and talks right, he makes moral love to his wife, and he raises his kids in a standard American family hand-picked for him by his forefathers. Any deviance from that is marks-off.

I think a lot of men need to believe that their life just so happens to perfectly fit the mold, but you see, it’s by choice. If that’s what they need to believe to be happy, then okay. I’m fine with that.
