    nice work, but the guys got some pretty stupid ideas on what ‘a man’ is

      1. pursues his own interest, even if it seems weird to others.

      2. brings an idea he cares about from germ to product, even though it’s a lot of work

      It’s not so bad!

        Yes, but are those two points gender specific?

          I don’t think so, but our ideas of gender are individual- maybe that makes the perfect man for this guy and the perfect woman is decisive and well informed.

          Because of my dad and husband, I have an association between manliness and home cooking, which is probably not super common, but it’s still definitely there in my head.

          Given the chance to be weighted down with chainmail, do you feel like most men would enjoy or not enjoy it?

            i guess i would ask why only men would enjoy it, and, ya know, not all humans. why even bring gender it to it? its silly

            like the person who brings a chicken to a knife fight. i guess its technically possible, but why would ya?

              I think maybe we’re overthinking it. Maybe BeefyGorilla just really likes chainmail, and it makes him feel masculine, which feels good to him. And that’s okay.

                I think this was his intent, especially because it looks like beefygorilla was commenting on someone else’s post
