Macho Paradigm

The Macho Paradigm© is the overall system of conditioning of masculine or male dominated culture, esp. here in the U.S. This is the system by which parents and society raise children, primarily boys by emphasizing macho stereotypes, expectations, behaviors, standards of emotional repression through the shaming of boys in particular that if they don't live up to these standards they are considered weak and inadequate. This is often done by a comparison to and , the condescension of femininity/female stereotypical behavior such as emotional, gentle, sensitive as the epitome of weakness. Anyone can be negatively affected by The Macho Paradigm© but most of all males are harmed by it's constant pressure it puts on them to live up to a stereotype of what a man is even if it causes pain on him or those around him. Things like chauvinism and misogyny as well as peer pressure could theoretically be traced back to The Macho Paradigm© as a root source of that programming that causes people to not only repress themselves to appear tough and cool but then to shame others into the same macho conformity. ©2014/DM

Examples of Peer Pressure Quips in the Macho Paradigm©:
'Man-Up' . 'Don't be a pussy' . 'He hits/throws like a girl'

Noun-The Macho Paradigm is the system we live in at the root of everything.

'The Macho Paradigm is one of the main causes in culture that drives men to put each other down when they are not tough or macho enough and sometimes even bully them'.

'Many boys feel like they can never measure up living in a culture influenced by The Macho Paradigm©'.

parabollock mirror

In politics, it is a second stream of bullshit that mirrors that of someone else with a mutual interest of deception. The matching steam of deception is called a parabollock mirror from the British root of bollocks, representing bullshit or deception.

An an example, from Canadian politics, is the introduction of a cover story by Nigel Wright to match the legally protected stream of bullshit that Stephen Harper has been offering over the last couple months on the Senate expense scandal of Mike Duffy. In this example, Stephen Harper looks to his former staffer to provide a cover story of mirrored deceit and thus forms the parabollock mirror of his untruthful story.
