It’s *ridic* how much each episode revolves around men and their fragile—if not toxic—masculinity 🙄
Episode 5 saw Alabama Hannah and her remaining men jet across the pond to find love and haggis in Scotland. But while all the men were working hard to show our Bach babe that they’re modern day Bravehearts, the episode proved something different: that they’re actually just straight up brutes.
I have waited my entire life just to see Tyler C in a kilt and I am now satisfied 😩👅 #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/YvshxiR8akThis week’s date—which saw the men throw axes, carry buckets of milk, wrestle and use too many Braveheart references to count—follows the seriously dangerous rugby date from episode 4 , and a string of aggressive, hyper-masculine dates in previous seasons of the show.
Annoyingly, Hannah appears to be 100% on board with these competitive group dates, repeatedly saying that she wants a man who’s physically strong—which apparently is indicative of a strong heart?—but TBH girl, that doesn’t add up. Just look at Luke P., a man who dominated on the rugby pitch, but we can all pretty much agree is the president of the red flag society.
Which, we’re sorry Mike, but that is *not* the correct use of the word livelihood. Also, it’s just straight up wrong. In essence, Mike is saying that Luke S’s masculinity and manhood are tied to his ability to stay on the show. His manhood is in direct relation to the affection of a woman, and we have to say: that’s no bueno.
This feels especially wrong considering our current social and political landscape. Positioning women as prey is just not a good look in the wake of #MeToo, which highlighted just how often powerful men behave in predatory ways.
