Masculine backlash?

It's not some random deal.  American men rank physical fitness very highly.  In order to be  part of the group you have to   keep  up.  Most mens activites with other men are physically based  and often competitive at that.

I think you have a distorted view of masculinity. I doubt you have such a distorted view of femininity. If I was to say a woman who doesn't wear make up, high heels, have long hair, and conform to what media dictates a woman should be isn't going to be part of the group then you would say I am wrong. There are all types of women and men, correct?

I am starting to weight lift because it makes me feel good about myself. However, I know transmen who would rather not workout and would prefer to shop, watch stereotypical female oriented films, etc. They are still men and don't deserve to be ridiculed for that.
