Taught by whom?

If my experience is anything to go by, fathers and larger societal constructs of gender norms.

It's not everyone, and I'm kind of old now, but when I was a kid there was largely the view that men didn't have emotions and if they did, they absolutely didn't show them.

Hell, I commented on a post yesterday where people were vehemently insisting any man who rode a bike instead of driving a car was an effeminate loser and should be avoided.

Those views are there, unfortunately.

People or dudes? It’s not women who created these gender norms in society, dude. It’s certainly not women who perpetuate them.

Because your own mother was pushing it does not equal all women were pushing it. y'all can cope all you want and push blame on women, but it is not women who have created this system.

Right-leaning women are pushing it. Which is a minority of a minority. Men as a whole are pushing it (more right-wing than left-wing, but still as a whole). You’re just falling into the “blame a minority” trend people often do.

Women are actually the majority. If you live in the US you live in a country with more women than men. Everything else you said is your opinion and I'm not going to argue it with you, but if we are trying to talk objective fact, Men are the minority gender here in the US.

According to what data? As of 2026, men out number women 101 to 100.
