Can we talk about masculinity for a minute? Is there anything that a man simply should not do?

OP is a forum 16 vet. You just seem like a clown.
'Preciate that homie...
getting on both knees is a no-no for me.
In Marine Corps boot camp they actually stopped us in the middle of a live fire exercise to point out a guy who was waiting in line on both knees. My DI said and I quote "A man that is down on both knees is either begging for his life or waiting for someone to put something in his mouth."
Adhere to a ridiculous binary that would keep them from living their life exactly how they want in the name of 'masculinity.'
Thank you for that, as I had never heard of gender binary before. But what makes it "ridiculous", the question is very simple..
I mean yall are going so hard like I'm sooooo far off base here but according to some of you it's okay to be equally attracted to
and
because there's no real definition of "masculinity".
What I'm saying is that there has to be. Women are women and men are men. And there should be some standard to adhere to. That's all.

You're on NIKEtalk bro. The brand was built on men seeing and liking what an athlete wore. I guess everyone in the WDYWT thread is feminine. This thread is hilarious

So there should be some huge sweeping standard that you should not only be expected to know, but to also obey? #!+! that! Let me guess, pink for baby girls and blue for baby boys?
What is the harm when the lines that are drawn between masculine and feminine become muddied or less defined? What do we lose as men? Do we lose grasp on some b.s. upper hand we have over women?

"Men" shouldn't refer to archaic practices or traits as measurements of one's "masculinity".

So it's feminine to shave your face now? I have a full beard at the moment, but I can't imagine getting at any girls with this @#$%
Most women I know hate facial hair

When a man get punch in the face in a straight up fight and and he back down.
In my book, that makes him a coward and less than a man.

+1.
many other things that have been posted i would never do but most are personal preference type things. In the above scenario if you're still conscious you must retaliate, or you are < a Man. Keep in mind i am not an advocate for violence (i hope i never have to fight again, although it is most exhilarating, people will try to kill you if you beat them up, in particular those who think they are "thugs").

someone mentioned gender binary.
Is it hard to fathom a continuum rather than two polarized absolutes?
