@_noleyyy_: I’ve been a part of these games and still find myself playing them sometimes. Part of it is innate in young men. However, it often wreaks of desperation and insecurity. It shows that you feel threatened and must compensate by asserting your perceived masculine assets. A goal of yours and mine should be to recognize this machismo game and not fall to the petty squabbling of toxic masculine nature. I hope this message reaches the right people. Resist the pull to play. Find comfort in your own calm sanctuary. In this case, not playing, is winning. #SelfImprovement #discipline #philosophy #mindset #masculinity
