So based on this thread, I have to conclude that the danger of traditional masculinity has been massively overreported.
The real answer is violence. Toxic males are too quick to react to the slightest perceived transgressions with overwhelming violence.
But this is social media and we are looking for funny answers.
I watched an extremely drunk dude kick his own ass at the nightclub because I accidentally touched his hand when reaching for my drink. He started drunkenly yelling at me that I was some kind of homo for wanting to touch him. I told him it was an accident, and walked outside to have a cigarette. He followed me outside and tried to fight me. But, he was so drunk that I saw his punch coming a mile away and just stepped back a couple of inches. The momentum from his punch carried him all the way around in a circle and then he fell forward and smacked his head on a brick planter. The sound was awful. He knocked himself out cold, and blood was everywhere. I just went back inside while the bouncers tried to wake him up, and I never saw him again.
Greatest thing I've read all night.
Haha, I'm glad it was entertaining.
Good thing this thread isn't what the dangers of traditional masculinity are solely reported on.
This thread asked about the most absurd, not the most dangerous.
