I feel like a whole generation of kids are missing out on positive male role models.

Step up, and pass on the good vibes and knowledge

And to fill the void they turn to the manosphere. It's heartbreaking.

    The Manosphere cooked up this bullshit “this generation missed out on real men” post in the first place

    I was in foster care. My mom was a druggie alcoholic.

    Now, I have 5 kids: 2 girls, and 3 boys.

    My oldest, a girl, needed my help. I gave her life advice her mom wouldn't. My second oldest - a girl - I helped transition. My third, I help him pick dresses and skirts, because he gets embarrassed around his mom. My fourth, we learned our own sign language when he was younger, as he was nonverbal autistic until he was 6. My fifth, his mom and I help him daily though leukemia.

    I guess it would be better without me helping them.

    Your an ass. Male role models can help, like female role models. My help is different from my wife's, but it in no way diminishes her contributions.

    That's a real literal interpretation. Lack of healthy male role models in a boy's life can easily lead to manosphere content. Just look around.

    I couldn't teach a boy to fish but I was lucky to have good role models (men and women born shaped me of course).
