manly

Apparently, these guys didn't get the memo. For anyone who missed it, here it is again: WE ARE NOT ANIMALS AND YOU DON'T NEED TO ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE. That said, these men tried to assert their godly dominance in absolutely ridiculous ways. You would not want to find yourself anywhere near these toxic displays of fragile, validation-seeking egos. But if you do, don't forget to write about it on Reddit so us normal human beings can laugh and shake our heads at the absurdity of some men. 

Imgur user and adept Photoshopper bonebowlwas able to catch his young son doing some pretty impressive things for a young man his age. 

He says "Our son was born premature 9 weeks early weighing just under 3 lbs. I like to joke that he wasn't premature, he's just advanced.  So I took some pictures of him doing some manly grown-up things."

In today's age of fluid sexuality and gender, some men feel the need to "defend" their masculinity from the impending destruction of all things manly in the face of nicely presented shrimps or a pink hair tie. For some reason, being genetically male isn't enough and these men need to prove that they are MEN. I'm not sure where their ideas of what a man is came from, because last time I checked, you won't instantly turn into a woman if eat yoghurt. Anyway, people like this exist and here are some of the most ridiculous stories we found on Reddit. Don't learn from these stories, OK? Your masculinity is not in danger.
