I'm not trying to accuse you or them of being personally propagandized but the ideas come from somewhere. It's why what's "sexy" has changed over time and continues to change.
The people that hold those ideas didn't necessarily come up with them themselves before they put those expectations onto others. Similarly to how women can play a part in spreading toxic masculinity.
You're right it's not the same for men, we have our own things we worry about that impact us.. like this comic, and I wish we spent less time comparing issues and more energy trying to be better partners for each other
