Macho Paradigm
The Macho Paradigm is the stupid rule that says men have to be the strongest, loudest, and most stupid people in the room. It’s like being forced to wear a helmet and shout ‘I’m a man’ at a karaoke bar.
My dad said, 'Men don’t cry, they just die quietly.'
My brother got mocked for taking a nap during a video game.
My uncle said, 'Real men don’t need help.' when he broke his arm.
