I can't imagine an accessory screaming, "I'm insecure in my masculinity!" any more than this.

Fellas? Is it gay to take care of the child you made with a woman?

[–] sqgl@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

If one is attracted to perfume and makeup and pretty colors then women partners are the easy choice. Just sayin' 🤪

Not at all. But it's stupid to carry a camo bag while you do it.

Apparently you can have a whole child and still feel unmanly enough to buy this, lol.

So a pink diper bag is fine, but this one screams insecure masculinity. Sure. How about, if you like the design, buy it. And if you don't, don't. Your comment is like a guy saying that make up screams insecure femininity.

I think all people who wear camo look stupid and I'm not afraid to say it. Kinda like how I know I don't want to engage with anyone wearing an American flag tshirt. Fuck all of them.

Also, yes. A pink diaper bag is a great way to telegraph that you aren't afraid of what others think. Or maybe that you care so much that you chose pink, but at least that's not indicative of a bizarre respect for combat and war.

If you intentionally chose/wear something to make a statement (or "telegraph something") isn't that the exact same thing with the camo diaper bag, they might also want to telegraph something - so you are not that different.

I was speaking about a hypothetical third person, but you misread it and made it as though I was making these decisions. I don't have children and make no decisions about diaper bags. And ye, I'm hyper different from assholes who wear camo, drive trucks, or buy black rifle coffee. Fuck every one of them.

I'd get that type of diaper bag, if I had kids. I like the look. Most of my bags and backpacks are black MOLLE-covered military looking shit. You can like a functional aesthetic without being insecure about your masculinity. Some people just thinks it looks good, you know?

No different than 'feminine' bags with cute flowers on them
