[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t have time to read through 7 pages of comments so I’m not sure if anyone said this but I think making sure your son participates in sports helps a lot. They learn how to work with others, touch grass, stay in shape, and sports generally help with popularity. [/quote]

This. And not just team sports, but individual ones also like boxing, martial arts, shooting, archery, etc.

Boys who grow up doing manly activities are much more balanced and better at being a grown man and husband. [/quote]
Citation? Sounds like you’re just making s*** up.[/quote]

:roll:  I've seen this kind of harpy at dinner parties. She inserts herself in conversations where she has nothing to add, and every time someone says something she doesn't like, she asks for a citation. It's berserk.

Lady, you are not on a dissertation committee. Your marginalia requesting citations is a category error.[/quote]
🙄
I disagree with the premise and you can’t provide a single iota of proof of this. I think it’s actually sort of the opposite. [b]Tate, Rogan etc[/b] all promote “manly” activities and are literally the leaders of the incels. Soo doesn’t seem to be accurate. And with no citation, it’s more of an opinion than a fact. [/quote]

Those are not manly men by any stretch of the imagination. Maybe compared to really wimpy men they would be considered somewhat manly, but most every man I have known on a personal level would make those men look like Woody Allen. [/quote]
That almost further makes the point. They aren’t manly men, but they promote doing the exact manly sports you/pp said create non-incel manly men.

So either [b]doing mma and kickboxing creates manly men[/b], as said initially, or doing mma and kickboxing creates manly men like Tate/rogan, or non-manly men in your opinion.

Which is it?

Or is it just made up (duh) and you don’t like being called on your sh** (also duh). [/quote]

You are confused here. One does not the other make. That's where your thinking is off. 
A male cannot be manly if he doesn't do or know manly things. But simply doing those things does not make them automatically manly. [/quote]
