A man can not feel like man without going to church, American males becoming very weird.

Back in Texas, Buck tells me he and his fellow converts are turning their backs on instant gratification and American consumerism.
“We’re thinking of things long term,” Buck says, "like traditions, love for your family, love for you community, love for neighbours.
This is weird?

Would you, as a man, find something like this fulfilling?
Or rather a cool dude priest who does weight lifting?
“I don’t want to go to services that feel like a Taylor Swift concert,” Father Moses says. “If you look at the language of the ‘worship music’, it’s all emotion - that’s not men.”
Capitalism won’t like this if the idea takes off.

Sure, sounds lovely. Kids are having fun. What’s not to like.
What’s more important in a church? The pastor or the congregation?
I don’t need some alpha to lead me, so for me, as a man, I’m neutral in the weight lifting aspect. For all I care he could be swinging a golf club. Dedication to an activity is fine. He sells it as manliness? Ok. Fine by me, but not my thang. If that’s what makes some men better husbands and dads and sons, also fine by me.
Really just a bs hit piece by the BBC.

Yes. Weird is you need go to church to be a man. Men should know to take care of family. Save the time and money given to the church for the wife, and time to work for better family Life.

Both are important, the people more, however to some degree, the concept always dictates what kind of people is it going to attract the most.
I am not fan of any kind of organized religion, as it often tends to get fanatic, but I understand, that for some, the Orthodox Church is a place in life they need, somewhere to belong to in a world which has gone extreme in other ways.
Meh, stranger than eating the body of Christ?
What? It’s in our genes?
No.
What’s in our genes and is to mate and gtfo.
It’s a social coping mechanism. Some people don’t like baseball and philosophy. Meathead church it is!

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are approximately 10 million women aged 18–25 in the United States.Reports indicate that around 1.4 million American women are content creators on OnlyFans
It’s not surprising men are turning away from this nonsense. I’m glad I’m no longer in the dating pool and found someone that’s not insane and has good values.

Those numbers seems to trace back to washingtonexaminer doing some extrapolation of data - assuming they’re roughly correct, #1 might be arguably true (if we’re going to go ahead and limp people into groups to judge like the above), and #2 shows a small percentage of women taking advantage of that:
Adults aged 18 to 45 — nearly all of the users of OnlyFans — comprise little more than a third of the U.S. population, or just shy of 119 million in total. This means that we can (again, very, very roughly) deduce that about 2% of American women aged 18 to 45 are selling themselves on OnlyFans, and about 1% of men are doing the same.
The problem is way more bleak on the demand side of the equation. According to OnlyFans, nearly half of its 220 million users are Americans, or more than 94 million. Considering that 87% of users overall are male, we can assume that’s about 82 million American men, three-quarters of whom are reportedly in that 18-45 age bracket.
I’m guessing the majority of creators are young women as we are talking about young men here.
Let’s say it’s 5% adjusted for age since the overall is 2% as the number you gave. I think that’s reasonable.
That’s pretty significant when you consider how social dynamics work now with online presence.
Let’s say you go to a school with 2000 kids. 50/50 split. That’s 50 girls you go to school with that has OF. It’s significant, idk about you but I didn’t know a single person in my school that went into porn or became a stripper. I’m sure some kids did at their school but it wasn’t a regular thing. Certainly not dozens of them.
But that’s not how social dynamics work anymore, young people have double lives. One in real life and one on social media. You no longer know just the people in your school or area. A quick scroll on social media and you’ll see OF girls pushing their content all the time.
I didn’t have this growing up. So yeah, we want to keep putting the problem in young men for everything and they’ll keep putting themselves into an early grave.
But we won’t have a conversation with women that these types of behaviors are harmful to the relationship between men and women

They are ok if suckers pay them to look at the 
on a screen. They aren’t ok if the same people ask them out though, that makes one a creep and a misogynist.

A young woman I knew slightly only in a professional setting recently asked if I’d seen her OF. 
I asked her boss if that question was normal, she was gone the next time I stopped by there. 
Like everything else in life boys have to be taught how to be and grow into men. And if male role models are deficient or absent the knowledge gaps and ‘desire to be something more’ will be filled by someone or something to satisfy that absence.

Well if the man wants to mate in USA or Taiwan, he needs know how to make money I would think. Women for the most part do not like poor men, prefer ones that make more money than them. (With the gender pay gap, should be the normal standard). In Taiwan the man is expected to take care of the family by providing money for the basics. (Food, house, car, ect), I would expect in the USA is the same.
