Men have been sharing the ‘unmanly’ things they still do anyway – 19 traits that have the balls to be different
It’s fair to say that masculinity is going through something of a crisis at the minute. Thanks to the presence of toxic influencers, it’s more confusing than ever for young lads to find their place.
To inject some positivity into the discussion, MuayThaiRunner decided to focus on the positive sides of masculinity. And they did so by asking men to share the so-called ‘unmanly’ things that they still do anyway.
And to get the ball rolling, they even shared a stereotype-defying example of their own:
‘I still love building, and playing with Legos.’
