Edit 3:
Limited daily posts are such trash -_- You really couldn't do this any other time?
Certainly.
Traditionally masculine traits and adjectives include Chivalrous, Stern, Paternal, Firm, Strategist, Stability (emotional stability, monetary stability...), Dependable, Serious, Protective, Practical or Pragmatic, Disciplined, Athletic, Progressive, Self-Assured.
If you want more physical traits, then you have Muscular, Scruffy, Large, Imposing, Deep-Voiced, Strong...
Or, you know...
read what Aveyond-Dreams said because if I'm agreeing with him, odds are his words are what page I'm on
thinking for yourself isn't a bad thing Boblawblah.
It's called context. Third time you haven't read past my post and come in to judge. Is this all you do, police people? Or are you stalking me for any ambiguity? Others have ambiguity in their posts too, why aren't you doing that to them? I wonder if this is reportable though, because, I told you before,
please get off my back, you are making me uncomfortable. Not because you want me to explain myself, 0 qualms with that. But because of the way you ask things, when it takes just one minute to look up or think. If I were wrong, I'd get, but you're just being weird. Anyway.
Modern masculinity and femininity tend to conflate stuff from eachother's traditional style. Often I see people define masculinity by the traits I mentioned on my previous post, which devalues what masculinity is meant to be. And worse, when I see masculinity being brought up, people react with "Misogyny!!" when really it's not. It doesn't have to be bad, just like how traditionally-feminine traits don't have to be bad, do they? Toxic masculinity is what you're considering if that's the case: dominant, forceful, aggressive...
Now take all I said and question yourselves. With such traits, can you make a Roegadyn work without debasing them like Grynewaht? As I said, even Gosetsu was loud and boisterous. You don't need to make characters that are loud just to express that they're men or have masculine traits (in the case of female characters), do you? So why insist on adding that to Roegadyn when they're the largest and muscular race we have? Because it's every. damn. Roegadyn out there. The potential to portray masculinity with such a physique rarely ever discards the stereotype and focuses on those traits.
You can argue that "when they were sundered, souls were incarnated into the traits they possessed the most", which would indeed create races born out of stereotypes... but a) No, because several characters break their race's stereotype both in and out of the Scions, and b) we know souls reincarnate into different bodies and races. Remember how a Sahagin had the Echo?
If anyone wants to ask stuff like this, they're free to do so. But maybe read the context before asking, because that generally has an answer.
