There's the obvious egg joke in here somewhere, but my hot take is that cis men can also feel envious because they desperately crave intimacy free of toxic masculinity.
I feel like men are robbed of emotional maturation and complexity growing up and that's what they're missing. Not a girlfriend or a wife, but someone who they can share feelings that they have no words for completely.
Being completely, wholeheartedly, smitten, enamoured, and left speechless by love and intimacy and emotionally vulnerable gets reduced to being whipped (before) or simping (now) until men can't allow themselves to connect as deeply.
Obviously, I don't think it's the same for everyone and there's probably a gradation of how true this is, but sometimes I see men that fit this idea and it just makes me sad.
I definitely agree with you. I have been flooded time and time again with messages from people telling me Iām an egg because of some comment I made. If I admire a lesbian couple, if I have a feeling or preference that skews feminine, or even something as innocuous as choosing female characters in a game because the male options look like hot garbage.
Iām 100% cis. I have a beard and a dick and they feel natural to me and I love them.
But Iām not about to defend my self identity to a bunch of people that feel justified telling me to completely change my life based off of one quickly skimmed internet comment. So instead, I just keep it to myself.
I feel cowed and silenced by this very vocally enthusiastic group of people, who tragically think they are āfreeingā me. Men can have all sorts of feelings, and itās OK. And someday, people will be OK hearing about it as well.
Yeah, I totally get it. I feel incredibly isolated from the world around me even tho it has never been more outwardly welcoming. I don't have anyone to share my rummiations with. I personally blame it on both a combination of a small town that doesn't support my interests and my habits being inherently isolating. So basically just spend life taking my dogs for a walk on my own and playing videogames.
