Zone1 How do you define masculine? How do you define feminine?

[martybegan]

Masculine:

Feminine:

To the simple minded or someone who doesn't want to overcome a pre-conceived notion - I can see that. But it is not only entirely meaningful, but any attempt in altering these ingrained behaviors never goes well

What you are posting is nothing but a pre-conceived notion based on your own personal experiences

No.
I can't help the fact you are uneducated and uninformed in basic phycology, or choose to subscribe to the most recent theories of where there is no science or proof. Just grabbed out of the ether so you can virtue signal over it
Day 1 stuff.
Everything I have said is accepted human psychology for 100s of years.
You apparently don't want there to be any difference between male/female or masculine/feminine.
That is absurd and is a desire to ignore reality and replace it with white noise.
I knew there was going to be an agenda when you started this thread... and here it is.

In a different thread I put forth that masculine and feminine have a multitude of definitions depending upon who you are talking to.

So, if you were asked what made one masculine and what made one feminine, how would you answer the question.

Thanks in advance.

By using the questions -

What is a woman?

What is a man?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

And by the way dippy - I do almost all of the cooking, all of the laundry and a lot of the cleaning also. That has nothing to do the character traits of a man and a woman.
You created this thread to cling to your obvious hatred of what men are.

Dang, that was one epic rant. Well done. I have no hatred for anything.

I am an alpha, traditional male who is an excellent father and husband.

One thing about being an alpha, you never need to tell anyone you are. It is like being smart. Smart people never feel the need to tell anyone how smart they are.

My 2 children have grown and doing Goddamn good! I mean freaking great!

Well done. It is a good feeling when your children do well.

My 28 year old son is a Respiratory Specialist specializing in infant respiratory care. He is published. at 28 years old, he headed up a study and they came up with better ways to intubate infants that will save lives.
28! Published medical professional.

My 28 year old daughter is now an International business associate for medical device company working on expanding her companies business beyond our borders. Her salary put her in the top 7% for the nation as a whole and the top one or two for her age group.

My daughter is a Core charge RT and a major metropolitan hospital and trauma center. Both married with children, and doing at the very least better than 95% of the rest of the population in their age bracket.

My 20 year old son is still in still in school well on his way to becoming a Civil Engineer and working 30 plus hours a week while he does it.

Neither are married as both are too young for such things. There is a time and a place for everything.

Ask my wife how happy she is anytime you want. I am a fantastic husband for her. I am a man, and I take care of shit. And I do it well.
I am proud to masculine, proud of being a male with the traits that come with it.

My wife would give the same answer about me. Weird how that works.

Seems in the end you and I are not all that different.

That has to piss you off to no end.

By using the questions -

What is a woman?

What is a man?

A woman has X chromosomes (XX) and a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (XY).

Not sure how that helps the discussion.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

I do not want to put my thumb on the scale

So, where ARE you putting it?

 

[Captain Caveman]

A woman has X chromosomes (XX) and a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (XY).

Not sure how that helps the discussion.

A woman and a man have characteristics. The characteristics of women is called feminine and those of men is defined as masculine. So these are traditionally defined by society and some elements of these change over time.

For examples, current society deems dress wearing as feminine.

 

[Kruska]

Actually according to me, just the opposite is true. Which is the whole point.

According to you; Blond (masculine) or Blonde (feminine) are not sexes, they just relate to the sexes Male and Female - WTF are you talking about?
as my previous post (See above reply in bold) has already clarified.

A Blond refers exclusively to a male(sex) and its a masculine term, noun
A Blonde refers exclusively to a female (sex) and it's a feminine term, noun

You Just talk, post and endlessly demonstrate- your obvious stupidity, in this thread.

Great post

According to you; Blond (masculine) or Blonde (feminine) are not sexes,

Correct, they are not sexes, they are words that have a gender assigned to them. Though Blond is not masculine, it can be used for either.

A Blond refers exclusively to a male(sex) and its a masculine term, noun
A Blonde refers exclusively to a female (sex) and it's a feminine term, noun

This is being less and less the case.

Blond vs Blonde: Here’s the Correct Spelling

The difference between "blond" and "blonde" is purely one of spelling and grammatical gender, and this difference is quickly disappearing in the present day...

englishcomposition.org

You probably know that blond/blonde is an adjective describing hair of a yellow-gold color.
The difference between blond and blonde is purely one of spelling and grammatical gender, and this difference is quickly disappearing in the present day.

Blond(e) in English is originally borrowed from French, in which adjectives take different forms depending on the gender (sex) of their nouns—male or female. We do not generally recognize this distinction in English, although we have many gendered nouns for people, such as actor/actress, or the obvious boy/girl, etc. However, we sometimes hold on to old habits in any language, especially for extremely basic words, such as blond(e).
Major style guides recommend maintaining this distinction for the moment, although it is fading:
My sister has blonde hair even though my father’s is blond.
However, in practice, blond is becoming the default in America, while blonde is becoming the default in the UK. So, if you don’t know, use blond in US English and blonde for UK English.

Born male is always masculine. Might be very or not very, but always masculine.

Born female is always feminine. Might be very, or not very, but always feminine.

A male can’t be feminine and a female can’t be masculine

Born male is always masculine. Might be very or not very, but always masculine.

Born female is always feminine. Might be very, or not very, but always feminine.

A male can’t be feminine and a female can’t be masculine

A male can have feminine traits and a female can have masculine traits.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

A male can have feminine traits and a female can have masculine traits.

And the blue sky is sometimes gray, orange, pink etc.
But everyone calls the sky blue. Because it almost always is
Got any other meaningless points?
Only virtue signaling idiots who want to replace reality want to argue there are no discernible differences between men and women behaviorally that covers the vast majority of people.
The left s currently trying to erase masculinity, and there is already a HUGE price that is being paid for doing it.

Good thing I did not argue that.

UhHuh

The terms are far too subjective for much agreement to be possible. Yang is masculine and yin is feminine is about as precise as we can get.

No
It is not that subjective at all.
No more or less subjective as saying the sky is blue. It is not always blue, but overwhelmingly so.
Same for males and females.
Unfucked with, over 95% of males and females will have predictable behaviorally differences that are recognized by everyone who doesn't want to ignore reality.
There are exceptions to every rule. Yin/Yang has that small dot of the opposite color in each side as an acknowledgement of that fact.
The left is trying to convince the world that there is no Yin/Tang. Just one large gray circle.
And in doing so - is creating one of the most fucked up generations in mankind's history.
With approaching 25% claiming to be non binary. That is a disaster in the making. Already a disaster. Over 50% of kids are taking anti-depressants. That is unacceptable.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

No you idiot, it's - My sister has blond hair and she is a blonde, even though my father's is blond. Since my father is a male he is a blond, whilst my sister is a female and therefore she is a blonde.

A Blond refers exclusively to a male(sex) and its a masculine term, noun
A Blonde refers exclusively to a female (sex) and it's a feminine term, noun

You Just keep talking, posting and endlessly demonstrating - your obvious stupidity, in this thread. Go back to school.

This is the clean zone, keep your insults out of this part of the forum.

A Blond refers exclusively to a male(sex) and its a masculine term, noun
A Blonde refers exclusively to a female (sex) and it's a feminine term, noun

These two statements were once true, not so much any more.

Language, like everything, evolves over time.

Sex is irrelevant?

Only after marriage.
