We need testosterone. We need agressive men and protectors...we need them because there's other agressive men that are evil. So  we need protectors from ourselves. We need the good, strong people to protect us from bad strong people.... you're seeing a feminization of male spices.
Joe Rogan on JRE

The MMA commentator asserts that there is a need for strong-willed men with elevated testosterone levels to stand up against those who perpetrate harm. He contended that individuals of unwavering moral character and physical robustness play a pivotal role in shielding others from those who wield both physical strength and ethical ambiguity. He also emphasizes that this is an essential requirement for the well-being of society.

Rogan’s perspective goes beyond conventional stereotypes of masculinity. Instead, it focuses on the idea that being assertive and morally upright are qualities that should be harnessed for the greater good.

In JRE #1936, Joe Rogan discussed how the “toxic masculinity” concept has made many men feel bad about their natural traits. He highlighted that many guys feel unfairly labeled as evil just because they’re male. They often found it hard to deal with societal expectations of traditional masculinity. Furthermore, it can feel that their natural instincts and interests are seen as foolish or wrong.

He emphasized that regardless of gender, it is critical to see everyone in today’s world as fellow human beings.
