According to GQ Magazine, “new masculinity” is men wearing earrings and giant dresses that resemble sleeping bags while crying.
Yes, really.
“@Pharrell covers GQ’s New Masculinity issue, an exploration of identity, culture, and style in 2019,” tweeted the magazine.

The cover shot shows the musician wearing an earring while dressed in what many people are describing as a cross between a dress and a sleeping bag.
Other images from the shoot show Pharrell crying and wearing a long leopard print coat.

According to GQ editor-in-chief Will Welch, the issue is “an exploration of the ways that traditional notions of masculinity are being challenged, shifted, and overturned” as part of masculinity’s “Shut Up and Listen moment” in a “pervasive culture of sexual intimidation and violence and blatant gender inequality.”
“This GQ cover celebrates a feminization of men, not masculinity. Real masculinity is the desire & ability to protect, the desire to lead, strength & emotional fortitude. Masculinity is NOT the chauvinistic BS media perpetuates & nor is this cover. Men don’t go to war in a dress,” commented Robby Starbuck.

As we document in the video below, the new definition of “masculinity” is not what it used to be.
Yes, we have no bananas................
A less masculine Xerxes....
>> Not even a liberal woman would be attracted to that. <<
I dunno... looks an awful lot like an upside-down bag of fries...
“...raging dumpster fire...”
Best turn-of-a-phrase yet today!
No... Just... No...

The ONLY way a REAL man would wear that because it A - literally is a sleeping bag and is practical to carry around so you can sleep anywhere or B- can be instantly setup as a tent to sleep in because that’s a practical use.
Otherwise that’s just stupid and gay.
They are WRONG!!!! Most men are opposed!
I grew up with the prior editor-in-chief of the GQ magazine. Good guy, not sure what happened to him he wasn’t that way back in the day.
Oh and C - it’s actually got a cooling system in the jacket where you can keep a dozen or so beers ready for drinking
Reminds me of Carol Burnett in that Gone With The Wind skit.
Yes... so masculine I bet women are lining up to f*** this guy....Or men are.
Candy Corn.
The new masculinity is the old masculinity exemplified by Trump.
My brother said he was so happy to se Trump elected as kids finally have someone in the WH to admire and respect and to aim to be like. We haven’t had a role model in the WH since Reagan prior to Trump
That magazine will fold in a year.
I wonder if I could wear that to work
Looked better on her!.............
Yep. Go look up “80s club kids” (there but for punk rock go I... lol).
i wish i could take credit for it, is common phrase today
