Painted nails and skinny jeans were never my preference,
Playboi Carti is your one and only "manly" reference.
I'd rather stay single then be controlled by a lady,
Motivations by both sexes can be totally shady.
Society is fucked, what happened to banter?
Agendas pushed more aggressive than cancer.
I'm too old school, not living by the new rules,
They made masculinity toxic, those fucking fools!
Maybe I'm a soon to be extinct dinosaur clawing for it's last breath,
So tired of the propaganda being shoved down our mouths to death!

Political correctness under the ploy of kindness can be taken too far as a power move. Honesty is the mark of love and that is in short supply now days. Well written.
Indeed and thank you.
You are very welcome Shaun
It's a minefield out there now, ask a girl her preference, you get, I'm Bi-sexual, A sexual, pan-sexual, god knows what sexual.
Don't get me started on the bars. A pint of lager comes with twenty different names now.
Haha, very true, I don't even go out drinking anymore but before I stopped it just wasn't the same.
If a War kicks Off , they'll be wanting Real Men to fight for the Country.
And as for Sexual Harassment: The Woman are just as Bad. Remember when Prince William met some Ladies and one Pinched his Bum.
If a Man did that to Kate : They would have been arrested. Good Write.
Haha true, mad times.
Shaun, the anger is unmistakable, but I think its target remains too vague. Nobody should shame a man for embracing traditional masculinity...yet allowing other men to live differently does not make masculinity endangered. I've always wondered why some men feel so threatened by other expressions of manhood. That has always seemed rather insecure. For me, the real problem is coercion in either direction. Regardless, thanks for raising it up for discussion, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
I hear you, I've no problem with men doing what they want it's just the fact the traditional man is now labelled toxic in this society which I find so strange.
Propaganda from both sides of the gender divide...
Very true.
