re: "I wanted my son to reject masculine stereotypes. Then he fell in love with tractors"

Despite being loony, he's doing a good dad thing. And his son might make a man of him yet.

I took on being an at-home father because I wanted to bond with my son, and I realized that meant I needed to let him discover his own interests. He had to define his own identity, not influenced by my own bias of what I deemed to be too masculine.

I started taking joy in his joy. He radiates wearing his shirts emblazoned with diggers and dozers and excavators. At 3 ½ years old, he can name dozens of types of tractors (I always thought there was only one). He makes up quasi-gibberish tractor stories, sings quasi-gibberish tractor songs. Together, we clean the living room: He uses his tractors to put all his toys away. Sometimes my dad comes over and we drive tiny plastic machinery from room to room. My son beams. My dad beams. I beam, too.

To me, femininity was connected to empathy and kindness while masculinity equated to being frigid. Men didn’t hug. Men didn’t say I love you. Men were angry. Aggressive. Inept as parents.

You know, you can love your kids as well as other people and respect people and still be a masculine man. In fact, it’s what you are meant to be.

The kid has hope despite having a pussy for a dad.

They so badly want a trans kid for the virtue points.

Yep. The Hollywood types (Charlize Theron and others gender robbing their kids) only had kids as a fashion accessory. This moron selfishly had a kid for a virtue signaling beacon.

This poor baby. He's going to be suffering abuse until the day he turns 18 and God willing, manages to overcome this.

I've never seen a form of mental child abuse on the horizon more than the story I just read.

All my life, I’ve prided myself on blurring gender lines.

What a dumbass thing to take so much pride in.

These type of people are long past any critical thinking or logic. It's all about trying to one-up their woke peers.

she's very pretty, wasn't expecting that. wtf is she doing with that fool?

After turning 2 years old, my son, Avishai, started demanding that he only wear tractor shirts, and my mind spiraled into darkness.

this right here is all i needed to read to decide this person is weak, and has never faced real travesty or hardship in their lives.
