If you could go back into time thirty or forty or fifty years ago, and pluck a group of citizens out of the past, and immediately bring them to 2016, and sit them in front of a television set, I can guarantee one of the first reactions everyone would have is “why the hell is everyone talking and acting like a homo?”

It’s been a gradual change in speaking, comportment, mannerisms and such, over the past years, and most people today aren’t even cognizant of it.

Not exactly the same topic, but I think Tony Soprano summed up modern masculinity pretty accurately:

"Let me tell ya something. Nowadays, everybody's gotta go to shrinks, and counselors, and go on "Sally Jessy Raphael" and talk about their problems. What happened to Gary Cooper? The strong, silent type. That was an American. He wasn't in touch with his feelings. He just did what he had to do. See, what they didn't know was once they got Gary Cooper in touch with his feelings that they wouldn't be able to shut him up! And then it's dysfunction this, and dysfunction that, and dysfunction vaffancul!"
