This post struck me:
Ties in with what I've been observing in the culture. To play devil's advocate a little, what we see as effeminate, weak, etc., actually seems to be working for a lot of men as a sexual strategy. Just as there has been a tipping point for fatness where it just doesn't have as much of a stigma as it used to, it's now perfectly acceptable to be a chip-munked cheeked pajama boy who says the right things, e.g. can make ironic references to the latest episode of Girls, rolls his eyes at those against gay marriage, etc. They get laid. They get girlfriends.
There may well be a tipping point where the old-school throwback masculinity just doesn't succeed as well as a means of getting women. I believe this is the case in Japan, and maybe in Scandinavia. Roosh talked about it in his writings about Denmark. Being more masculine than everyone else doesn't get you the hottest women there. Playing the androgynous dandy role better than everyone else does.
There will always be different niches. If you work out in Japan and are buff and take no shit, you will get laid, but so will the sapling-thin dude with a stack of fashion magazines and his hairdresser on speed dial. That's actually a larger niche than being buff in that country.
Maybe that's where we are heading. Tone down your big, loud voice fellas.

guys with effeminate voices had more girls around them. I guess its not as intimidating. I used to be complimented on my deeper voice, but now these high frequency talkers get the attention. Just an observation.

Dr Johnson rumbles with the RawGod. And lives to regret it.
