Happy Men's Day!!

Ok International men's day is in november 19th, therefore Happy Day boys!!!

[emelinet]

so i missed it but international men's day was november 19th! so i hope you had a happy's men's day.

in today's climate, let's start focusing this day on:

supporting queer and trans guys and however they choose to express themselves

lowering suicide rates among men and boys

the disproportionate incarceration of black and brown men

normalizing men being feminine and/or gender non-conforming, regardless of sexual orientation

positive male role models who support feminism

normalizing eating disorders and body image issues among men and boys, and working to help guys struggling with it

❤

how to celebrate international men's day (November 19th)

step 1: find any guy you have a good relationship with (if you don't have one consider spending today fixing that)

step 2: send him a pic that goes real hard. like you say "hell yeah" out loud when you see it hard. alternatively you can send vids of people throwing fruit, veggies or sheets of ice off high places and getting demolished.

step 3: attach a message like "I saw this and thought you might like it"

important: don't tell them you did this for a holiday. make it seem like you're thinking about them. in fact this post might make them feel suspicious on November 19th try a different time like right now or next week or something

Happy International Men's day!

You're welcome for all the inventions, and upholding of civilisation and discovery, women. Maybe consider nagging us less?

#Men's day

घर की जिम्मेदारी उठाते हैँ

रास्तो पर अकेले चल कर जाते हैँ

बेटी को परी बनाते हैँ

बहन को हर मुशीबत से बचाते हैँ

बीवी के हर नाज़ो नखरे उठाते हैँ

माँ के हाथ का बने खाने को जन्नत बताते हैँ

ये मर्द भी बड़े प्यार से सपने सजाते हैँ...

Ghar ki zimmedari uthate hai

Rasto pr akele chal kr jaate hai

Beti ko pari bnate hai

Bahan ko hr mushibat se bachaate hai

Biwi ke hr naazo nakhre uthaate hai

Maa ke haath ke bne khane ko jannat btaate hai

Ye Mard bhi bde pyaar se sapne sajaate hai..

✨ Men's day PSA ✨

by your friendly neighborhood transmasc men's lib activist ⁓

To the women, male feminists, gays, nonbinaries and transmascs who haven't gotten with the program yet:

If you want the rest of us (incl all trans & otherwise genderqueer ppl) to be free, cishet men need to be freed, because misandry and gender roles affect all of us, but they're the ones defining society's mainstream conception of what it is to be a Man™.

And cishet men can't do that by themselves, so they need your allyship!

Here's my old video on men's issues if you need a general intro to men's lib. Feel free to also check out my videos on men's studies and matriarchy, as well as the various things linked in their descriptions.

Here's some simple things you can do for the men in your life:

question your misandry & anti-men/-masculinity biases

ex. do you think it's fine to make fun of/be mean to men? how do you feel about your own masculine qualities? would you do/think the same thing to/about them if they were a woman/queer person? etc

meet men with kindness & give them the benefit of the doubt

men, like anyone else, are people and not a monolith, the vast majority of them are perfectly lovely and safe to interact with and don't deserve your prejudice, they deserve to be treated as well as anyone else & are usually used to being treated significantly worse

include them in stuff & teach them skills they traditionally don't get to participate in

there are plenty of matriarchal skills that are hecking useful & not available to a lot of cishet men the way they are to women and queer people, ex. make-up, hair/nails/skin care, fashion, sewing/knitting/crafting, or even just like base social skills/presentability

value them

ex. show that you want for them to be alive, healthy, and happy; compliment them/their looks; (where applicable) express your attraction to them incl what abt them you're attracted to; etc

support them in their own self-liberation efforts

ex. emotions/mental health/self-worth, fashion/self-care, parenting/home-making, etc

respect their current limits & comfort zone

ex. if they're not/not yet comfy w something more extremely out of their comfort zone, don't push it, as it might discourage them; understand that certain things don't come to them as easily (yet) as they do to you

remember intersectionality as with all things

ex. don't forget that plenty of men have marginalised identities (mental health, disability, class, race, queerness, etc) and therefore are not the Image of Privilege you may make Men™ out to be; don't invalidate/erase transmascs' & queer men's claim to female gender role things/femininity in order to validate their manhood/masculinity; be mindful of different issues & stereotypes affecting men of different ethnicities; etc

I love men. Not in a romantic way I just love them. I went to the grocery store and there was two guys walking around and one of them said very excitedly "LETS GET OREOS" and the other said very flatly "no" "WE CAN DIP THEM IN MILK" "no" I saw them later. They got their Oreos and milk. The excited one said "let's get hot cocoa!" I didn't get to see if they got their hot cocoa too. I hope they did. I know they don't know this, cause I didn't tell them, but I hope they know there are people in the world that love them. And I'm one of them.

Happy Men's Day
