A stated vs. revealed preferences problem plagues some brands of modern-day feminism. An example: criticizing traditional gender roles while showing admiration for men who display certain qualities associated with traditional gender roles (e.g., women love "strong men" trope) and dismissing those w/o said qualities.

can you share an image or video to see this practically?

Can't think of any atm. But if you look, the signs are usually there. A good example is that nearly every romantic novel features the aforementioned trope in *some* form. It plays out IRL too where people talk about "nice guys don't get laid" and whatnot. (Ironic that some nice guys may identify as "feminist" too).

i literally took a screenshot of our exchange and sent it to chatgtp:

“create an ad for a brand that represents this”

the ad:

Yep. That's an example of the stereotypical "classic man". It's a good ideal to aspire to (as a guy), don't get me wrong. It's just ironic that people cherry-pick which parts of the traditional gender structure they like.
