A man’s value is his ability to provide.

That’s what society teaches from a young age.

Part of being an adult is assessing what "everyone" knows and tells you to see whether it's actually true, and if so whether it's relevant to you and the life you want to make for yourself. Granted, this guy is only 23, so he's got a long way to go with that process.

The problem is that people will exclude and discriminate you if you're not the tradmen which only value is that he's the provider.

If the opinions of shallow-minded wanna-be gender police matter that much to you, then there is nothing I can do to help.

It's not something about if it matters to me or not. It's not something at all in my mind.

It's about the fact that these people are the same ones that write the laws and rule the cops. It's their systemical impact what matters, not their opinions alone. Because they're still institutionalizing sexism against both men and, specially, women.

As for me, I try to live my life the way I want to, as much as it's possible for me to do that to the extent of my socioeconomic reality, but it's a fact that because precisely of that I face more difficulties than those who live their life just as mere cashiers with legs, because the laws and the culture are rewarding and giving them privileges.
