>>83557my bet would be urbanisation and life getting easier. The americans who went to ww2 had lived through the depression, and the european continent was bulldozed by the war. Britain didn't fully end rationing until 1954. The east was stuck under Soviet rule, and the west had to rebuild from rubble.
The emasculation started with the baby boomers, you can see this clearly with vietnam and the hippy movement. The Korean war saw many lose their lives but people weren't SLFs about it and didn't bitch and whine. In comparison 10 years later when the boomers start getting sent to fight it mindraped them to the point of hating those who were forced to go fight when they came home, and having gay sex and smoking nigga weed. The same oldfags who legalised gay marriage, protested war and smoked pot are the ones who now blame the Millenials/Zoomers for all of this and whine about them not being "real men"
