To me this description feels like its written by someone very far away from what he seeks. It suffers from taking a lot of stereotypes for granted thus as hippies having long hair means that they aren’t manly. Historically there nothing particularly manly about having short hair. Hippies more often have beards. Calling that femine misses the whole point. Man in the military where everything is orderly don’t have beards, but rejecting those values and growing your beard isn’t about rejecting “traditional masculinity”.
Sensitivity and intellectualism is not the same thing.
Hurting each other is not the point of most fighting. Most male animals who fight with each other don’t fight in a way that’s dangerous to each other but to test each others strength.
I think you are making a mistake when you view raids as a central part of human existence. The usual violent group activity is hunting and not raiding.
High testosterone is not about aggression it’s about dominance. From my stackexchange answer: “boys who had a history of high physical aggression, from age 6 to 12, were found to have lower testosterone levels at age 13 compared with boys with no history of high physical aggression.”
Your experience of what it means to be gay is confused. Plenty of gay people do practice BDSM with is about expressing violence.
All in all, the only reason I called it Maletopia is because I wanted to focus on how the fighting tribes of Mannfolk serve the emotional needs of masculine men. Really, Maletopia is simply a subset of Utopia where everybody else, too, finds groups where they can be themselves.
Being themselves likely isn’t about living up to 20st century stereotypes of what it means to be male.
I also say that as seeing myself in the 21st century given that the people I know who hold seminars about manliness don’t consider manliness to be at odds with being sensitive.
