Thank God this side of the internet exist. All this masculinity and sigma stuff going on is really great. I was so lost when I was 13-15. I was a complete and utter loser. I have been self improving for over 8 months now. My life is infinitely better then it used to be
@clutchcord1633 You're right, but Patrick Bateman should actually be the negative example. The entire movie shows that he actually has comically low self-esteem and everything he does is not because he feels comfortable, but because he needs external validation.
Patrick made me see life from a different point of view, now I am happier, mindly stronger and confident. I am a new man. We are all Patrick Bateman. Each one his way. Peace for every Patrick Bateman.
idk if I'm the only girl who admires Patrick. Since I found out about the movie I have upgraded my work-out and skincare routines and I'm just more confident in general. Love him and this movie.
Es interesante ver el que gran malestar de Patrick, a pesar de ser el un psicopata; esta en el echo de que es su sociedad quien no lo castiga, quien se mantiene indifirente a su ser, quien hace que su confesion no signifique nada... Mientras que en crimen y castigo, Raskolnikov encuentra la paz y la promesa de un mañana brilloso justo en cumplir con su condena.
American psycho; Fist Club; Breaking Bad; I am thinking about the nature of masculinity and myself. On the on hand masculinity is necessary and is demanded from the society. On the other hand, all outcomes of masculinity are judged and criticised (i.e someone talks shit about your girlfriend, you punch him in the teeth. Now everyone believe s that it is necessary to say that you are wrong, that you had to act peacefully.) I can clearly see that despite what some people claim, masculinity is not always toxic, though it can also be (example: Heasinberg, Tyler Durden, Patrick Bateman). I cannot understand what masculinity is, though. A set of characteristics which are considered as ones of a male? Not sure. My definition is: masculinity - is a collected suffering which helps one care less about his or her self and, thus, act in a way considered as brave or courageous (Example, work your ass of on two jobs just to provide everything for your family). Also, a collected suffering which can be retranslated on others if needed. (Example: fist fight, military conflict, argument) However, masculine creature is not a bull. Not an agressive, easy-provoked monster. Such a creature, on the contrary, may be silent and calm. (Example: Jesse Pinkman at the end of the serial. And even Walter White soon after he was diagnosed with cancer.) It is just that masculinity contains a mechanism of "self-explosion". So it has to be controlled. Acceptance of everything, pluralism, tolerance and peace poison masculinity. What to do? I don't recommend starting a war. Just go to a boxing club. That will be enough, I believe.
You make a teally good point but i think that you should accept other ideologies and opinions even if they are different from yours but only if they don't affect you in any way
