After reading this, it made me too wonder how our Escapist feel about this topic.
"Some men admitted they don't have women heroes because they see women as "antagonistic to men" or "less likely to do heroic things".
"Other people agreed that whether men admit it or not, they probably don't have women heroes.
Women role models just aren't held up with same reverence and respect as their male counterparts. "
Then you have the people who think that only gay men have women heroes:
Do guys here think of women when asked the questions of :
"who do you most look up to and/or admire?"
"Who did you wish you could be like when you grew up?"
"who is your favorite Hero?'"
Or others, but you get the idea.
Do guys generally view women as people they look up to and emulate or ever think, "I wish I could be more like her"? As children do guys look at women as " I want to be like her when I grow up" or would that be weird? Women and girls have plenty of male heroes, but do men do the same thing to women in the same way?
Keep in mind Admiring a quality or a set of qualities doesn't mean you can't be critical of them for other things or see them as perfect. You can like something about them and dislike everything else as well.
Men are sharing why they don't have female role models and it's sparked a debate about masculinity
