Calm down. I never implied masculinity isn't a spectrum or that men can't behave in many different ways, nor am I advocating for a "hyper dominant macho" guy.
The fact that you're even bringing this up shows you don't understand what I'm saying.
Genuinely, how many men have you heard say "That's so kind of you!" before? Especially to something as (relatively) trivial as getting a free croissant. Especially a guy who dresses like Lukas and plays sports.
I just pointed out that my reaction was the opposite, I'm very calm lol it just felt curious to me. As for the sentence, I myself tend to be thankful when people do nice things for me, and I'm not feminine, so it doesn't stand out that much for me. But again, it's just curious how we both have very different perspectives on what's "normal" for a man to behave like.
