Searching for books on masculinity brings up shit. Pic related.

72% chance you're depressed or lonely. Going the anime-nazi route will only further degrade your ability to introspect and you'll become more of a joke because of it. Just start to fucking lift and don't eat like a pig all the time. All the other mystical Jungian bullshit will come naturally.

>Going the anime-nazi route will only further degrade your ability to introspect
You're wrong and I speak from experience.
The farther one falls away from themselves, the better they will see themselves when they turn aound again.

There's nothing wrong with OP also seeking out some masculine role models and philosophy, or even just anything related to masculinity in general.

Modern media rejects the masculine image completely. If one wants to immerse themselves in anything traditionally masculine these days theyre going to have to search for it. I dont see anything wrong with that desu.

Right but the most immediately accessible and by a vast margin the most popular contemporary media on being a man is all bizarre fucking PUA shit with some racial grievances thrown in.

>Fight Club?
BEE. you're looking for a faggot view on masculinity, especially a repressed one

Masculinity means different things at different times:

Seriously though, Fight Club as an exploration of sexuality is similar to American Psycho for the same reasons. You might want to examine yourself before you make unfortunate youtube videos like Palahniuk.

do have in mind that fight club is a critique on masculinity

Masculinity is pretty much dead. Most men today are more feminine than women.

leave your basement if you think this is remotely true

Well it is remotely true, but not completely true.

Men are extremely metrosexual these days.

Leave the house

what is sports?

What are action films?

Sports are literally gay. As in dick-suck-gay gay.

Last year I'd say that 72% wasn't far off but that was before I started reading. This time definitely not. I just read Swastika Night and Fight Club and wanted similar stuff exploring masculinity good or bad. The reason that I didn't ask for critique is because faggots will say it's bullshit due to the fact a lot of it is feminist and the reason I mentioned the pic so that I could show that I'm not an anime-nazi alpha male wannabe looking for a "self-help" book. I just want to explore masculinity good and bad.

What is TV series Justified?

Both revolve around physical action not why men feel the need for that action.

>There's nothing wrong with OP also seeking out some masculine role models and philosophy, or even just anything related to masculinity in general.

Would you care to present whatever contrived definition of masculinity you use for this to make any fucking sense whatsoever?

Models: Attracting women through honesty

So?

Weininger - Sex and Character
Evola - Eros and the Metaphysics of Love

And don't forget good ol' Pluto.

noice projection m8

read montaigne instead

Just stop fooling yourself and get started on dat HRT already.

So, they offer a caricature of masculinity, in lieu of the character of masculinity

>Sports are literally gay

Have you ever played sports? Sports are great for camaraderie and physical fitness - two important aspects of masculinity. They're also fun to watch on the telly with your mates while you bingedrink and banter each other.

>role models
The most insidious form of cryptocuckery. Reminds me of the display on my campus where a student claims her classes are harder because none of her TAs look like her.
