Sharkie posted:

One difference is that masculinity to valued more highly than femininity; men's fragility is associated with keeping power and maintaining gendered roles whereas women's insecurity can be seen as a reaction to having to obtain power and survive within imposed gendered roles. Plus men are insecure about their masculinity whereas women tend not to be insecure about their femininity, though of course some can be I guess.

Also "women are insecure" is a stereotype, whereas men are generally told they're not insecure or should not be at the risk of not being manly, therefore pointing out that men are super insecure is both true and also useful.

also i've met more insecure men than women

sure thing bud

anyways i thought the consensus on breast cancer awareness month is its just a big fundraising plot by komen and the real issue for women isnt random screenings which doesn't change much and women being able to afford actual treatment when they find out they have breast cancer

that is the consensus yes
