The use of the word whining defines male shaming at its very core: an attack on ones masculinity.
Real men don't whine, therefore…
It is an attempt to shut down or control anything that does not fit the world view (or agenda) of the person issuing the shaming.
Women have historically enjoyed the ability to complain openly about matters they do not like without criticism.
Whining implies senseless, victim behavior. Complaining for the sake of complaining.
Men discussing issues of concern that need to be addressed are not whining.
Women (feminists in particular) would like to have ownership on the right to complain.
Men just need to remain quiet and man up.
Theyll let us know what it and is not a problem and how we need to fix it.
