Unfortunately, just another symptom of a real lack of clear positive masculinity in media/culture.

Through most of history, a working steady job and not beating your wife was good enough to be a "man", but today there isn't a real clear path/ritual/trial to "achieve" manhood. If you only look at media, most of it promotes the dudebro image which doesn't really work in life, lol. Combined with the fact that women are having another major cultural revolution in terms of treatment and equality, these guys are just a lost generation of men, stuck between the old days of arranged marriages and a modern fuckboy.

If you encounter them in the wild, please treat them with compassion (set clear boundaries!) and understanding, so that one day they can understand that their masculinity comes from within themselves, which may one day lead to sex, not the other way around.
