            oh, yeah, absolutely. you can just move into modern asian media and see the standard for masculinity shift. a korean male lead meant to be the romantic interest will be in a pink suit and clearly be wearing makeup. toned body but otherwise soft-looking features we’d see incels here claiming were clearly feminine. its a stark contrast to what we see as masculine in the west. or in a historical chinese drama you might see a man who is meant to be heroic in pastel, flower print hanfu with a really fancy pin in his hair in the shape of a butterfly or something.
