As a biological male and someone who identifies as a man, it's pretty weak, IMO, to need someone else to make you feel a particular way.

Are you in control of your feelings, or do you constantly need someone else to reinforce, or induce a feeling in you?

Personally, I'm in control of my feelings, and bluntly, nobody else has control over me. Neither for how I feel, or what I think/do; with the only exception to what I do being governed in part by legality. Eg. If I know a thing isn't legal to do, then I won't do that thing. Beyond the rule of law, I do, think, say, and feel, whatever, and however I want.

To me, having that much control over my own self is what makes me a person living in a free country. Anyone who does not have the ability, like I do, to think, feel, do, and love, whomever and, whatever they want, is someone who I want to support in gaining that right.

People in general like receiving positive feedback. There is no need to assign feedback to gender roles.

Just don't cast shit on a man that's had enough of it from his work or society. Sometimes we just want to feel human.

I'm stumped at the simple task of trying to imagine what does imply to "feel like a man".

You listen to Shania Twain’s hit Man! I Feel Like A Woman backwards

Yeah but none of this is misandry.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Check the usernames. Someone that claims misandry as their identity is just spreading it.

LOL! Almost that exact phrase is what I use whenever my wife asks me why I'm peeing outside in my backyard instead of just going inside to the bathroom.

I have to feel that "a woman needs to feel like a woman" wouldn't get a similar reaction.

It sounds like something terfs would say to explain why being a tradwife is good and desirable.
