That a bunch of conservative screeds against men wearing dresses and acting "feminine" came right before International Men's Day should be a reminder that men should be able to express themselves emotionally and in their appearance without discrimination or mockery
men should be able to open up about abuse or bullying, form fulfilling friendships with other men and women alike, and talk about themselves without fear of not upholding some arbitrary standard of "masculinity". If you identify as a man you're valid no matter what
I have a bunch of fulfilling platonic friendships with men and when people automatically assume we're dating or something it's part of the overall societal assumptions that only work to divide us. Don't let harmful societal standards isolate us and set us apart
