An unnecessary show of force, attack, and brutality to inflict harm with reckless abandon to further his own interest and/or exact revenge without mercy. He is actually the most dangerous man in the room because he is precisely not of masculine fortitude. When we hear about child abuse, trafficking, sexual assaults, and mass shootings, we know who he is before we know who he is. He is the prototypical self-proclaimed victim living in his mother's basement retreating to the couch and sitting in contempt while the storm of his own creation brews to fill with rage and ruthlessness. He doesn’t take responsibility or ownership to create internal value so that he can shape his life… he can’t or won’t carry a load and refuses to take action to be more… until one day, he does. Only now, he turns to hate, violence, and acts of cowardice with an onslaught of cruelty. The consequences lead to whatever gives him a sense of conquest and forced surrender over the victim because he can... men are on average bigger and stronger than women and can overpower them physically. “Anatomy is destiny," said Sigmund Freud. In the modern world though, he can simply take his dad's AR-15 and now he feels like a real man. No glory.
He is the harmless and fragile butterfly, adrift at the mercy of whatever wind blows in his direction... until he finds an even more harmless organism, or worse, a semi-automatic machine gun.
