*American men

EDIT: a few disagreed, at least with their votes, but you don't see this military obsession anywhere else, except perhaps North Korea.

EDIT2: I find it funny that I've gone from -2 to -5 and still nobody has written a reply explaining exactly what I've said is "wrong". The thing is that I think I'm right, and unless someone else explains why I'm wrong, that's not going to change anything! USA is a joke! Just like North Korea! Just like any authoritarian country! And in case you were on the fence: FUCK THE POLICE!

There are many places of the world you can't even wear camo because you literally have to be active military to do so.

What happened to men in the US that they can't carry their children's stuff, or can't even hold on to their girlfriend's handbag without having to hide in public? It's so weird.

You might look GAY for even holding a purse.

Yes but why is looking "Gay" so villified that many men would rather die.

This viral "comedy" video always bugged the fuck out of me.

Unfortunately for me, I look like the average maga chud...

When I hold my wife's purse, I become instantly flamboyant. "Do you like my purse? It goes with everything! It makes me feel like a bitch!" It makes the "dudes" cringe, and I fuckin LOVE it. I also don't mind being the one to pick up the industrial sized package of pads or tampons if I'm close to the store. (My daughter is at the point where she's pretty shy about it.

I am all in to take one for the team.
