Why? Because masculinity involves domination and the mere suggestion that you aren’t dominant is an ego bruise? Talk about fragile! Yet somehow women are the “weaker sex”? 🤔

Masculinity is often associated with strength and identity. Many men are conditioned to take pride in it, so when it’s questioned even jokingly, it can feel like a challenge. It’s not necessarily about dominance, but rather the way society shapes our understanding of gender and self-worth.
