Do you realize or agree that the three main female characters are more masculine than the three main male characters?
And the three main female characters are not masculine.
Do you agree or disagree?

Well the guys are playing nerds, so not a lot of traditional masculinity there. There's a "gay" aggression in Sheldon's character. Lol. I'm not sure if I should be offended by that. It's like he's a blend of nerd and queen.

Nonsense, he is an actor, he plays the part as it's written and the writers and director want. You think gay actors can't play straight if they wish?

The facial expressions, voice inflections, and physical mannerisms of the actor also influence the portrayal of the character. I think gay Parsons adds some natural 'queen' to the character, though Sheldon Cooper is straight.
Of course I'm queer, macho as fuck , and I don't particularly like the effeminate stereotype of gay males. But yeah, Sheldon is a fucking swish.

He acts like an effeminate sissy on Big Bang Theory. Nothing to do with being gay, he's just not a good example of masculinity. But neither are the other three guys on Big Bang Theory. Or two of the three guys on "Friends". Those 5 guys are an insult to masculinity. Nothing to do with sexual preference.

I don't think or feel there is anything wrong with being effeminate or swish like you say. That doesn't mean you are not a good person or a contributor to a good society. But the all 4 characters on Big Bang Theory, and 2 of the 3 guys on Friends, are not just poor examples of masculinity, they are pathetic characters. Insults to manhood. I'm not saying they are criminals, or threats to humanity. Just pathetic insults to manhood and masculinity. I realize these two shows are comedies. And laughing at the characters is part of it. I'm just making an observation.

It's just when stereotypes are applied to all gays or all blacks then there is a problem.
I'm wondering if some of this is related to generation and social class though? 20-something males look at things differently than 50-something males. We would say they are less masculine. But amongst their generation, I'm not so sure.

I agree. Younger generation males are not only less masculine, they are anti masculine "toxic masculinity". That toxic masculinity is part of the "woke" platform. And most of this woke platform is powered directly and indirectly by women. Most of Black Lives Matter, Defund and Abolish the Police is being powered by women and vagina men. "Vagina men - men raised by single mothers with no positive male role models. Or men thinking they will get more "action" from women if they support all women's issues."

That's just human nature.
