really loved this read!! makes me wonder how the patriarchy, capitalism and intersectional feminism influence this. is capitalism exploiting modern intersectionalist movements that encourage men to be free(er) from traditional hyper-masculinity, and how will this go on to affect our modern understanding of what it means to β€œbe a man”?

thanks so much for reading and weighing in. i love your perspective. it makes me think that perhaps one of the privileges of masculinity is being able to tap into more traditional qualities of marginalized groups (women, queer people) for capital gain and attention without actually forfeiting anything.
