The Loss of Masculinity in Society

There was a time when men were masculine, a time when men were men and not effeminate embarrassments to their parents. But effeminacy has increasingly become fashionable in today's culture and there are reasons why this is so as well as should not be.

From eye shadow, colorful hair, lipstick and more effeminate behaviors, more and more biological males are acting and behaving like their female counterparts.

Additionally, boys should not be spending inordinate amounts of time admiring themselves in the mirror, seeking out and buying the latest trendy and fashionable clothing, or even taking hours out of each and every day to ensure that he presents himself in such a manner so as to attain validation from others. 

None of this should not be so, but there are several reasons for this perverted and growing phenomenon.

Role models

Testosterone levels are decreasing as more and more soy based products are being consumed, but males also have relatively few – if any – strong role models in modern America or for that matter, anywhere in the world.

Add to the above the fact that more and more young lads are being raised by single mothers or in female-dominant homes, because the father has run out for a loaf of bread and never returned. That not only leaves boys without a male role model but then they are carted off to public schools… where their instruction, indoctrination and discipline are performed almost entirely by women, most of whom are liberal-inclined.

Left fatherless, these young boys are left to fend on their own. Of course, they want to be part of the in-crowd, and so they take to social media and observe the habits of their peers and then adopt effeminate qualities that befit their specific tastes. In this manner they are then able to maximize their pleasure and minimize their pain.

Conduct

One's conduct is far more important than looks. For example, watch modern music videos today and what you will observe is horrible conduct. Nearly every pop song is all about me, me, me. This is the false imagery of masculinity propagated to the male populace by wicked, lying minions of Satan who want to separate males from God.

Then venture into a bookstore and see what you find in the male self-help niche. It is rife and totally saturated with the worship of individuality, the assertion of dominance, and the encouragement to conquer at any cost. In short, these self-help books should be in the self-harm section if there was such a niche.  

In all reality, the very essence of masculine behavior is the ability to maintain self-control.

St. Basil's address to young men

Here is a link of what it take's to be a man. https://www.tertullian.org/fathers/basil_litterature01.htm

I also encourage you to read Father Josiah Trenham’s lecture series entitled "Reflections on Transgenderism." Link is here but there's a cost, so look around on ODF Drive or the Internet Archive for it.

What God says

The Lord our Creator has plenty to say about effeminate behavior. Let's take a look at several verses and let Him speak.

"A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this" (Deuteronomy 22:5, NIV).

"For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error" (Romans 1:26-27, ESV).

"Understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted" (1 Timothy 1:9-11, ESV).

"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect" (Romans 12:2, ESV).

Final words

If you're into self and the effeminate lifestyle just stop it, grow up, and act kike the man God designed you to be. You are supposed to act like a man rather than some creepy rendition of an abomination.

Trust me, if you continue to act in an effeminate manner, you will not only bring harm upon yourself but eternal damnation.
