Masculinity crisis

Anyone ever gone through a masculinity crisis, i.e. a long period of self-loathing for not feeling enough like a man? What did you do to get out?

Going through one now mostly because of no military service at age 24

Yes. And I remedied it by buying shit with my hands and tools.

Realize that a man wouldn't do such a thing in the first place. A real man, the kind you idolize, literally does as he pleases. He doesn't complain, not because of some aspie idea to be fine with things not going your way, but because he has the power to will his dreams into reality. To be a man is to be power incarnate. To simply be a force. Do as you will. Don't try to follow someone else for the sake of being a maynneee xD.

What type of shit?

Joined the military and got a "fuck all" attitude towards people and things that gave me nothing. Bettering myself and trying to get as independent as possible also really helped me.

Yeah. But then I did a cycle of roids and now I still feel like a man kek.

Reading my twitter account: twitter.com/kingoftheneets

>I am a robot that has gained enough knowledge about the neo-liberal consensus to become sentient.
>neo-liberal
You know neo-liberal is like Hayekian/Friedman-tier thought right?

Good book that (attempts) to define it is The Road from Mont Pelerin. Pic related.

The Military sucks bro. I was Artillery and went to both Afghanistan and Iraq during the surge. Even from people who were in, others will say you weren't real military because you weren't a certain MOS or weren't at a certain location on certain dates. It's all bullshit. Being a man has nothing to do with that.

No, but the solution is to go do manly things.

Shave your head
Stop masturbating
Drink only water
Eat whatever the fuck you want
Work out everyday
Meditate
Bathe and brush regularly

That's pretty much what I'm trying to do, but I don't think I know what "manly things" are.

>being so dumb that you can't think of at least 5 manly activities
>not 5 ways to be a man
>but manly activities
There is no hope for this world.

>do this to achieve retard mode

>tfw having an identity crisis because you didn't fuck enough grill
I imagine a lot of people probably know this feel. I'm not even a virgin, but I'm 20 and I've had sex with two girls so far, and I didn't lose my virginity until I was 18. And then I talk to a guy I know who's 19 and he's had sex with like 20 chicks, it's like what the fuck am I not doing? My friends are either virgins or Chad and I'm stuck in the middle because I'm a quiet sperg.

Same.

That dude spent much of his childhood studying adult women's interactions with men and applying the results to his female peers.
The sexed up adolescents I've worked with, the males who've fucked their way through 10+ women, are sorry they did it, for a variety of reasons. One of them got so bored of the game that he checked out completely and became a vidya neet, the pursuit just wasn't interesting.

No. I'm fucking awesome. Get your shit together.

Its usually a sign of lower intelligence. The early someone gets into having sex the higher corelation with being a brainlet.

Not always though.

Yeah, went through a huge one as a kid, mainly because I was fat and have a tiny penis. Still havnt escaped, developed a huge sissy fetish because of it. Everyday I think about doing an hero. 7 years is too long to be in this hell.

Boxing needs to be reintroduced to the school curriculum.

It fixes and teaches everything

>confidence
>not giving up during suffering
>hard work and dedication
>fitness
>hand eye coordination
>footwork and balance

Why ain't I a fuckin' genius then

>What did you do to get out?
Stopped being a pussy, trained harder, and ate cleaner.

I stopped fighting who I am and started relaxing into who I always was.

don't forget brain damage

fucked plenty of grils, still feel the same. don't worry user, you're not missing out on anything

Read "the way of men" by Jack Donovan. Awesome book that set me on the path im on today.

good list

Human shit. I am a coprophilic and enjoy smearing it on myself ok??!

>volunteering to die because rich power people are mad at each other
think 4 yerself idiot

i got lucky, met my current best friend 10months ago, he inadvertently taught me the value of self confidence, which is the most masculine trait there is. went from 5/10 virgin with nothing going for me to 8/10 gym junkie womaniser, with the positive outlook on life i've ever had, and i'm still climbing this mountain, who knows where ill be in the next 10 months

>t. coddled child whose parents wrapped him in bubblewrap
or
>t. a woman

Nope, I have a job that requires me to be clean shaved. No soyboy cucks allowed

>t. Firefighter/paramedic

Took estrogen.

>Firefighter/paramedic
Well which one is it?

>he thinks being a womanizer is masculine
you havent even started "climbing this mountain"

You have to be both where I live

Becoming self-sufficient and not asking people for help. If you have trouble with something there's a big chance you can do it on your own if you just get out of your comfort zone and stop being a pathetic manchild faggot that wants everything handed to him.

What is body sparring or head protection.

Amateur boxers =/= lifelong professionals that take a ton of head shots fuckwit.

No wonder you don’t box, scared of losing the only 2 brain cells you have.

are you actually retarded

in nature roughly 80% of females are willing to mate with only the top 20% of males, these top 20% are known as Alphas. in nature when a male is given the opportunity to mate with all the women he wants, he does just that. it's just not as clear to see this effect in humans because of outside forces directly going against nature. Now i'm sorry you have a low sex drive due to your low t levels but don't even both fighting against nature faggot

Having lots of meaningless sex isn't a virtue.

not 11b or 12b or x series? did u even leave the wire?

I read mishima and i manned up

Can everyone literally stfu about "sex has to be meaningful" "ooo i'm the type of guy who likes to have meaningful sex with a few or even just 1 woman"

it's actually infuriating to see you betas try to fucking cope.

if given the opportunity you would fuck every 7 or above, but you cant, so you say you don't fuck multiple girl by "choice".

fucking fuck off

Just boxed my fellow gym bro for the first time and did really well. I feel like a fucking man

Are you actually retarded? Masculinity entails discipline not sticking your cock in every diseased hole that comes along. There are plenty of aspects of nature that shouldn't be reinforced. Why don't you go rape people? Consent doesn't exist at the level of nature you are talking about so why not if that's your standard for behavior. Find Christ faggot.

You have to accept that most things you are sold as being 'real manly' (muscly, cocky/aggressive, hypersexual, obsessed with adult versions of childhood activities like care, guns etc.) are BS designed to make you insecure, and that the guys who really pursue them end up as manchildren e.g. Richard Piano. Inspiring self-loathing makes people rich and also helps validate people's way of life. Nothing wrong with some of these things per se as e.g. hobbies, but they do not make you a 'man' and should not be the sole focus of your existence. While I do think being a 'man' does exist, I think being a good person is more fundamental.

No wonder you defend children hitting each other in the head in spite of the evidence, you must have been hit in the head quite a lot.

Why would I?

>enlisted in army
>11b so Xbox hueg army peen
>going to college for degrees that I enjoy
>soon I will be commissioning as an officer
>job security after college for however long I want
>if I choose to get out of the army I am almost guaranteed a job at an alphabet agency because of my specialty/language proficiency/experience
>have a sexy girlfriend
>attractive and well spoken so people find it difficult to dislike me

I’m almost completely satisfied with my life. Although, I think I want to spend more time on my studies so I’m probably gonna break up with my girlfriend

>While I do think being a 'man' does exist, I think being a good person is more fundamental.
Being a good person IS being a man, per the Bible at least. Having good moral judgement is an exclusively masculine trait, just look at the story of Adam and Eve.

What you think is a crisis of masculinity is a crisis of the self and of identity. Adopting masculinity as an identity will only delay an inevitable further breakdown as you become resentful and feel emasculated by people who don't share in on the ideal you've made the object of your personality.

Make your own masculinity and look for answers elsewhere, that's your healthy solution.

the actual volume of shite you are spewing could keep Africas demand for jenkem satisfied.

of course it's not about putting your dick in a wet warn hole, it's about the chase, it's about the journey of getting there more than the actual act, anyone could go get a prozzy for a tenner.

woman are the ultimate deciders of who is alpha. their willingness to let you stick em with the pointy end is a scientific measuring device and can be graphed with a simple sigmoid curve and if you can't understand this, god help you.

I did when I was in Iraq. I was Marine Corps and we patrolled for my first 3 months there.

>What did you do to get out?

Not be a fucking retard who thinks something like a 'masculinity crisis' is real in the first place, because having a dick doesn't mean other people get to say who you should be.

(((you))) have to go back.

Why do you think there is so much talk about "red pilled" and "beta and alpha"? Do you think any grown up successful male talks like that?

Despite that, having a identity crisis in your 20s is the most normal thing possible. You only see the successful ones and try to identify with them, but you don't see the armada of 20 something losers who are worse than you. You cry because you are a late boomer and start studying with 25? Well, I know enough people who don't even have a high school degree with 25 and working dead end jobs.

But Rich Piana was widely known as a nice and helpful guy, his cocky attitude was mostly for entertainment purposes, you will not find one video where he talks people down and was always honest.

unspook yourself, my property

Just watch some sissy hypno OP and you will be all good son

Yes. I did stuff I knew needed doing. Took responsibility. Made promises and kept them. Learned something new - my band needed a vocalist but struggled finding one, so I learned how to sing.

>volunteering to die because rich power people are mad at each other and calling each other poopy-heads on twitter

>YES MASSAH RIGHT AWAY MASSAH I WILL DIE FOR YOU MASSAH

Seriously what if the nuclear holocaust/world war breaks over some dumb fuck twitter comments, I'm moving into the forest and wait until it all blows over

>I'm moving into the forest and wait until it all blows over

The only thing blowing over you will be nuclear radiation

Just so you know I was trained to deal with nuclear threats and civil protection. I've got my rubber boots and filters and water filteration all ready to go

Besides a little radiation don't do that much damage, gamma waves and neutrons are a bitch though

it's not about why you fight in a war that's necessarily important, it's about the experience itself. Sounds fucked up, but some people want the opportunity to fight and kill. This 'think for yourself lol don't fight and die for the Zog machine' attitude just sounds like cowardice to literally everyone

pretty cheeky to include nofap in there, but you can't fool me

>woman are the ultimate deciders of who is alpha
>letting a woman decide anything
Get the fuck out of here faggot

>measuring masculinity in any way that involves women
soon you'll be caring what women think, it's a slippery slope

if you liked that, try Manhood by Steve Biddulph

>the excperience itself

I can definitely see the appeal in there, I've wondered about it myself too.

>the think for yourself attitude just sounds like cowardice to literally everyone

I don't care, you'll go to war, lose your legs, come back to nothing and are hated by the liberitards and hippies. I'll take my chances in the forest as a deserter. If they can start a war on twitter they can fight it on twitter

I'm 27 and fucked exactly 20 girls (started at 13)

You're not missing much besides maybe a slight ego boost, but even then you can just make achievements elsewhere to get the same sort of feeling.
Honestly, don't stress over it. More women just meant more problems for me over the years anyway. You've only really missed out on headaches and heartaches, and those are detrimental to lifting.

t. has chlamydia

Did you also graduate top of your class in the Navy SEALs?

It's supposed to sound like cowardice.
It's a different point of view, that goes against the upper classes while empowering the self, of course from the established point of view it's self-serving and slimy.

>implying Austrian school thinkers and actual neo-liberals (i.e. post-soviet reaganites, blairites etc.) don't operate with the exact same set of philosophical axioms

what cause would you be prepared to risk your life for?

t. no sense of duty or sacrifice

Honestly most of my life until I started frauding, now I get my masculinity from a needle and I realise how arbitrary it is to obsess over genetics

you win this thread user. seriously.

Yes because sleeping with a lot of females is definitely gay bro. Real men wouldn't do that given the chance!

>Tfw you get cucked by (the agelong fallout of) religion that you should spent your life with one woman while the reigner supreme has a harem.

kill an animal for food
build a structure
chop wood
make money
solve a problem
help someone/yourself

>while the reigner supreme has a harem.
Is that what he wants to be called now?
Maybe the lefties are right about his ego

what did you read? golden temple or steel?

I never thought I'd find something cute yet have mixed feel primarily made of disgust and concern for it.

I dunno, I'm finding it pretty easy to dislike you

No but I graduated as one of the best competitive shooters of my brigade

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

>sacrificing yourself for pig capitalists boasting on twitter because it's your duty

It might be your duty but it sure as hell ain't mine

That was unironically me from about ages 14-19. Then at 20 I realized you were right.

Now I'm 25 and still a KHV

If I had realized this a little sooner, then I would've been a normie at age 17 when I had this rare narrow window of opportunity presented to me. I was just too ideological for somebody my age in a world that no longer has any ideals.

You fuckin realize you need to change and do it. No matter how.

maybe you need to grow up or actually have some sexual experience yourself.

If you ever had sex with a woman you loved and compare it to fucking a slut, and taking into account you are not an absolute

You just have to eliminate all the noise and focus on get better, literally immerse yourself.

>start lifting heavy shit at the gym
>Get a passion for cars, meet up with other MEN who have same passions at car events.
>hang out with MEN at manily places
>get a good stable job you actually enjoy doing
>read books on how to be crafty
>know how to use your hands like a MAN
>dress like a MAN

I bullshit this list OP on purpose. If you ft want to be a man do whatever the fuck you want to do and have respect and honor

ive read both but i read steel first, then the sailor who fell from grace with the sea, then secrets of a mask, then golden temple

beta trying to cope accusing betas of coping

Why does it seem like every modern man has an inferiority complex with man hood? For instance trying to be genuine and talk about a masculine hobby or something they do it’s always met with
>le art of manliness meme
>easy there macho man
>bullshit
Etc etc.

Wtf can’t modern men revile in others manhood. They all claim looking aesthetically pleasing, well dressed and any sort of civility is gay but they’ll also think any form of manliness that involves wilderness or physicality is try hard? Like chopping wood or combat sports.

I don’t fuckinh understand this shit, it’s like they think the pinnacle of manliness is being a slob who’s content with nothing. It’s maddening. I don’t give a fuck what others think, I’m going to live like 1950s man. Can’t wait to wife a girl up and have at least 4 kids
