What is masculinity?

[Aldo]

Hello guys recently I've been contemplating on what  masculinity realy is. To me masculinity doesnt look like an energy or force. When i compare myself with a the oppoite sex i dont see a difference in terms of energy. I dont think there is much difference in a male and female besides the body structure, sexual compulsions and some superficial behaviours that are conditioned by society. So what is masculinity? Is it just a sexual compulsion? The more i work on my consciousness the more disidentified i get from my body. (One process that realy helps with this is just observing the body) And as i do this the more ridiculous the idea of masculinity gets while you realise that you are not your sexuality. 

There is a very big amount of people who think that masculinity means something. Eliot Hulse has talked a lot about this topic. He has some interesting ideas but i dont think he knows what he is talking about.

Not the video that I wanted to share.

There is one in which there is a sheet that clearly explains the differences.

You're welcome

By the way @Aldo masculinity and femininity isn't gender based.

You can be a man with a feminine core, or a woman with a masculine core (although it's rare), and you can also be balanced.
Everyone has the two core though, and neglecting the minor one for the major one leads to major imbalance in your life.

It's a concept. What is the difference between a Macho Man and a Flower Boy? can a macho mano also be a flower boy and vice versa?never ending story telling

@Shin Simple men dont understand women and vice versa and from there both demonize eachother and create all sorts of problems and movements because they think its the same...

For example man will try to solve things through finding a soulution while women will jump from topic to topic just to talk(thats how they solve things) and just from that there are endless fights...

I've got a vid called Masculinity vs Femininity. It's pretty good from what I can remember of it

And also How To Be A Man Part 2.

If Elliot Hulse is using Trump as a role model for how to be a man, God help us all. Trump is not a man, he's a man-baby. Don't be that. Watch my video above.
