I think men are going to have to define foe themselves what secure masculinity looks like and how to achieve it.

Not worrying about it has been a solution that has worked well for me. Having a close friend who's lesbian helped a lot too. She taught me a lot about being true to one's self, and I love her for it. In the next life, if she's into men or I'm a woman, we'll get together. In this life, we don't have sex, but there are plenty of other ways to show love for someone. She's my sister from another mother.

Having women friends is generally a good vaccine against this nonsense
