Straw"woman" my ass.
"Good. "Masculinity" and "femininity" are nothing but arbitrary nonsense"
You're more than welcome to be a weirdo and reject every single thing your parents ever tired to teach you... ONCE you're on your own.
Of course choices have consequences socially.
So just to give you an extreme example, if you're the kind of person who likes to strangle chicken in his basement or whatever just the lulz, don't be surprised if people are not gonna want to hang out with you.
"that gets reshuffled whenever values shift so the "cool" virtues are always on the "masculine" side. And no, this is not something my SJW Cultural Marxist Women's Studies Teacher indoctinated me with (or some nonsense like that). It is my own obvious observation."
Okay so basically you live in a fantasy world, got it.
But just to point out, even if you think it's all bullshit and made up (despite this being the case pretty much worldwide, no matter what country or culture you go there is a common masculinity and common femininity even if some of the details differ), that's still the current culture we live in. So it makes sense to raise boys and girls in a way that makes them adapt best to said culture rather than pretending with no evidence at all + counter-evidence that men and women are identical except the genitals.
By the way, there are no "cool virtues". A full masculine society would be just as bad as a full feminized society. You need a society with both. They complement each other.
"A woman who is attracted to machismo is not one I would want to associate with."
Machismo =/= masculinity
"Ever heard of tomboys?"
Sure, outliers exists. If you look hard enough you'll also find people who like to fuck trees, what's your point?
"You have demonstrated time and time again that you despise respect and instead advocate an antisocial As-Much-As-I-Can-Get-Away-With attitude."
I respect people who earn it. I don't give it away for free, certainly not with far left sites that attack my fellow conservatives with lies and exaggerations.
"Erm, it is your side (so to speak) who think that women should not be drafted because soldiers are unfeminine and far too harsh for the fragile damsels in distress blablabla... "
Okay I'll give you that, I will occasionally disagree with "my side" as well.
And granted far fewer women would be suitable for combat roles than men, they should not be free of that obligation simply because they are women. They wanted the right to vote and that's a perfectly fair demand since government needs to be by consent of the people, not just the men. But with rights also come obligations. Either everyone is subject to the draft or nobody is.
And I don't see any of your feminists marching in the streets begging to be eligible for the draft, (in fact this is a situation that most women probably enjoy cause let's face it, few people actually want to be drafted so they'll tacitly accept not being drafted, it works in their favor) instead I see you complaining about trivial bullshit like coffees in elevators or "manspreading" or "catcalling" all of which are trivial and completely pale in comparison to the privilege of never having to be sent to a war to DIE or get seriously injured or mentally scared for life (and the chances of that happening are through the roof).
At the very least people unsuited for combat should support the war effort financially or hire a soldier to fight in their place. There is no reason why for example a woman who gets called for the draft can't just pick a "champion" to fight in her place and all she has to do it pay him. Plenty of people to choose from if you start with the welfare bums, convicts (provided they have some discipline, obviously you don't want violent murderers in the army) and other rejects.
Or fill in non-combat roles well away from the battlefield.
Personally I prefer a professional army but let's face it. A large-scale crisis would almost certainly bring back the draft.
""Don't be shallow!" is Political Correctness Gone Mad now? "
Having an ideal that people can aspire to isn't being shallow and in any case there's a difference between being shallow and being sexist. That difference is lost on SJWs.
But there is no reason why someone can't improve both looks and personality.
And yeah pursuing unrealistic standards of anything can be unhealthy, you need to know your limits. DOESN'T MEAN those standards should be lowered so people feel good about themselves.
