WALSH: The Definition Of Masculinity Isn't 'Evolving.' It's Being Deformed And Destroyed. | Daily Wire:

Image result for flickr commons images John WayneIt seems that the "evolved" masculinity is more likely to prevent men from functioning rather than helping them to function. Ultimately, it makes them useless and obsolete. Maybe you will argue that men ought to be useless and obsolete. Maybe you will even argue that the dissolution of men represents an evolution of society at large. I will disagree on both counts, but the point is that you cannot say men themselves have evolved by disappearing. That's suicide, not evolution.
But isn't it necessary to change the definition of masculinity considering that so many men fall short of it? No, I think that is all the more reason to reassert the definition. The whole point of having a concept like masculinity is to establish standards by which things can be judged, and to which a person can strive.
