i hear so much about toxic masculinity and how bad the patriarchy is and how Men are "keeping women down" and it makes me sick. i love Men. i love masculinity. And i never want you to be afraid of who you are or doubt your own strength. Men are awesome and this is my love letter to you all.
Today's society wouldn't even exist without you. So thank you so much for my mobile phone that lets me stay connected with all my friends. Thank you so much for the internet that makes it possible for me to express these feelings right. Thank you so much for cars and public transport so i don't have to walk everywhere. Thank you so much for the houses you built so that i can live in them. Because all those things wouldn't exist without Men, without our patriarchal society. Men did this. You did this. You built the cornerstones of our world. Men build the houses and girls make them homes.
We work well together like that. So thank you for giving us the opportunity to support you like that. Thank you for all the sacrifices you had to make, thank you for all the hardships you endure. Real men are protectors too. So thank you for keeping us safe. Thank you for upholding the law and thank you for risking your life to fight fires and rescue people from dangerous situations.
The world would be a very different place without masculinity and all the greatness you brought with you. So i am terribly sorry for all that "toxic masculinity" talk. i am sorry for all the feminism that made your life miserable. And i am so sorry for the "blame game" against Men that happens everywhere. i don't want you to be ashamed of your masculinity, of being a man, of not conforming to society views on what a man should do. i want you to be happy in your bodies.
i am sorry there are hardly any good role models on being a Man. i am sorry that there is a lot of body shaming but never any support about male bodies. i am sorry how society shuns you when you are having emotional problems and i am sorry how your motives come into questions so often. i am sorry for how stupid we girls act sometimes and i am sorry we can be such an annoyance to you.
So i wanna say here, you Men are appreciated. Maybe not by everyone, but by us good girls. By the girls who are not afraid of their femininity. Not only did you built this world we are living in, dear Men, you *are* our world. We love that we can rely on you, that you are holding strong even against the worst storms. You are our safe haven, our strength.
Thank you for being there. Thank you for giving us all these opportunities to make life great. Thank you for providing for us and making us feel special. Thank you for tackling even the most complicated problems and thank you for never running out of solutions. Thank you for your courage to never falter and withstand the hardest of circumstances. Thank you for being Men.
In return, we promise to always love you, honor you, and obey you. To support you in your endeavors and to always have your back. When you come home for a hard days work we will be there giving you the strength to continue. We will take your constructive energy and turn it into beautiful creativity. We will appreciate the things you create and we promise to add beauty to them. We will be there for you when life gets tough and you can be sure to always have a home with us.
i am sorry for the many Men who struggle to find their way in this world because they are no support systems for you. i am sorry for the many Men who struggle with their masculinity because everyone tells them it is toxic behavior. i want you to know that it is not. Be yourself, be who you want to be, and go your way with a head held high. i am sorry for all the setbacks and failures you will encounter but please remember it is not about how often you fail, it is how you deal with it, how you learn from it, and how you push yourself up. i want you to know that it is Ok to struggle sometimes. Just be you. Because you are awesome.
So, dear Men, thank you for everything. i know society can be mean and treat you bad at times, but i want you to know that there are good girls out there that love who you are, that bask in your masculine strength, and that think the world of you. Thank you for being Men.
sincerely,
the good girls

MissCharley6 months agoAuthorHey everyone, I appreciate all of your comments. I wish we could dive into deeper conversations here, but we can always continue our discussions via email at xxxcharleychase@gmail.com, and I'm active on Google Chat as well. Returning to the topic at hand, I'm grateful for your feedback. Life is a journey, and I'm a firm believer that both debate and progress are essential parts of it. Especially now, as we're at a pivotal moment for humanity, grappling with the dynamics of gender roles and activities—it's a time where we must either adapt, re-learn, or take a step back to ensure we're addressing these aspects appropriately.
LegendInMyOwnMindabout 1 year agoYou nailed it, sister! By the grace of God, my wife could have written it word for word were she so inclined. We are equal, not interchangeable. The latter viewpoint leaves men as second-rate women cursed with having penises. This writing proves you to be a first-rate woman who appreciates a first-rate man.
Anonymousabout 1 year agoPretty good understanding of men's psychology. If a man doesn't get respect and loyalty from a woman she quickly becomes no more than a convenient cum-dump if even that. Women as a rule forget the old saying "just put a bag over her head and fuck her." Sure, men want to be with the most attractive gals, but when the situation gets dire its any port in a storm. A woman who chooses men whose best quality is that they constantly cater to her will eventually find out how tiresome it is to have a human lap dog. There are plenty of butch broads, (not necessarily butch dykes) but they are either rejected out of hand or relegated to double bagger status by men who are looking for real women to connect with. Men and women alike; enjoy your primal sexual identities because you really have been made for each other. Evolution has seen to it!
