Are men of this day & age just as masculine and mighty as the men from previous generations? In this Pilot Episode Stitch, Rick and Magnus discuss the current "War on Men" and discuss how it is affecting our society and the future impact if things keep going in this current direction.
We as men are under attack. For nearly a decade, men have become the whipping boy of the media, particularly Masculine Men. Men with beards, and tattoos who like to drink whiskey and smoke cigars. Men who like to build thing with their hands. Men who laugh loudly and enjoy life.. we've been called "Toxic" and now there is a movement to remove us. There have been television commercials asking, "Is this the best a man can be?" as they paint a broad stroke image of all men being chauvinistic or abusive. There have been feminists who attempt to reinforce the word "Toxic" as they ask, "What good are men?" Well, Rick, Magnus and I are men. Men who love sports. Men who served our country. Men who love to drink whiskey, smoke cigars and laugh loudly and we're pushing back. Pushing back against the narrative that all masculine men are Toxic. Pushing back against the idea that men need to be soft, emotional cry babies in order to be their idea of a real man. We're not going to stand by and watch our young men be influenced by these extremists who are telling little boys that it's okay to wear a dress. That it's okay to play with dolls or that they can be any gender they desire. Those things won't make a better man. Those things will only cause confusion and frustration for our young boys. The truth is, Men are relevant in our country. It's been masculine men who have fought the wars. Built our sky scrapers. Protected those who needed protection and without us, this country will fall and crumble. If you ask me, It's not masculinity that's toxic. It's the lack of masculinity that is toxic.
