The inability to take a joke is a highly feminine behavior. Men routinely bust each other’s balls as a bonding ritual. It’s a test of friendship and brotherhood. When an entire class of people declare themselves as off limits for all criticism and mockery, they are removing themselves from the pool of potential friends and brothers. They are othering themselves by refusing to participate in your bonding rituals.
It’s not about lgbtq+ peoples joining our hierarchies. It’s about tearing our hierarchies down and replacing them with new ones that privilege a new high caste of protected identities.
It is more than just a bonding ritual, it is a test.
Do your feelings matter more than results? Can you take criticism? Are you brave and forthright enough to speak your mind when it is unpleasant? Do you go running for mom to tell tales when your feelings get hurt? How do you act under pressure? Are you able to forgive and move on when hot heads prevail?
These are all really, really useful things to know if a team is doing anything stressful and dangerous. Like felling trees, building roofing or fighting as a squad.
A man who has a big cry the first time someone hurts their feelings is absolutely going to fall apart when your squad is being shot at.

TIL there was a Zoolander 2.
He may be a real faggot, and he may say he's really sorry about it. but I bet you he doesn't read the Huffpost or Yahoo! Entertainment.
That's the top tier faggotry end of the Internet that is.
He gave an interview to Huffpost, bet he read that.
