NT conformation has driven me crazy for a long time.

Theres a kinda yes and mostly no for this. Yeah with fashion men dont have to dress well. But according to my guy friend, theres a ton of alpha male thing going down. If a guys doesnt conform to some at least semi-macho role, they'll be seen often as gay. And since women are taught to fear men, there a lot of "creep" judgements that women make out of men. Many guys have probably been called a creep, some more then others. So if a guy is weird, it means he's a creep. If a guys not macho, means he's gay or a wimp.

agree...and yes they
do compete with their friends too. I've witnessed it. There's a lot of subtle competition amongst even friends. For men, for social status, for whatever. There's this thing, they'll still be all nice and sweet to their competitors or enemies but they'll talk s**t behind their backs and backstab them. Have you ever heard the phrase, "keep your friends close, keep your enemies even closer?" Have you heard the term, frenemies. Or perhaps I watch too much reality TV. Well it does happen. I havent witnessed the particularly nasty stuff tho. I've witnessed friends s**t talking behind their friends back and being nice to their face numerous times.
