If there is still space I would like to join
wow, how did i miss this?
any spots open?
All spots are now filled.
I think this deserves a topic outside of a limited edition nft. I’m very interested in the community attempting to refine this idea further (i think we can do better than alpha and bad ass). I think it’s easy to get caught up in the symbols and image of what where trying to define as well as society’s associations and idea’s.
We should look at core values and not this type of stuff “( in several traditionally masculine areas. He will gain proficiency with cars, guns, weapons, etc. Other areas can be those such as logic, debate, chess, etc)” sounds like were talking about james bond. I don’t think thats the place to start thats a romanced male opinion on his best self (essentially moulded by what you think would best fufill your desires in life)
What core values are you thinking of?
Your individual priority’s are going to be subjective Virtues List - Virtues For Life has some great idea’s in a format i like eg.
Helpfulness
Making it easier to do a job, deal with a problem, etc.; giving help
Complements: Graciousness, Service
Transcends: Negativity
Going back too the archetypal angle mentioned earlier in the thread this img sums that up pretty well. We can see here that the toxic element isn’t an inherent weakness in the concept,energy,archetype etc. As people like to think but more of an insufficiency in it’s expression. (the pic is obviously just a general guide this topic is not set it stone and is open to interpertation)
If that is the case than than the environment (mind and ego) are not in favourable state too many conflicting opinions and beliefs blocking it)
As always a solid place to build from physical->Mental->Spiritual
physical: exercise, diet, drinking too much?,habits, activity’s, skills, interests etc
mental: ethics, attitudes, beliefs and opinions that further our proper development etc
spiritual: Not sure, this part is probably personal preference and more abstract but developing goodwill to all of life (love) is always a great start
might sound like a weird point to emphasize but i think the skills part is paticularly important i think when the objects around us where simpler and men could fix cars,machines etc as well as make and fabricate things, it may have given us a feeling of having more worth beyond being qualified for a single job (i have seen some grown men get looked at like a complete loser or child cause they were fire or layed off) anyway kinda off topic as i wasnt talking exclusively about nft idea’s just thinking outloud.
I’m interested, is there a way I can join?
You don’t have to be an alpha male to get hate. Just having a little bit of self-directedness is enough. All you have to do is Not suppress your own thoughts and feelings. That equates to being self-directed. Listening to yourself. Trusting yourself.
Walk around like that and watch the hate roll in. See how many times someone will say “man” to you in a conversation in a malicious passive aggressive tone of voice that indicates they are being sarcastic and that they want you to think or feel like you are not very much of a man when all you did is say “hi”.
Interested!
For some reason (some years ago when the Gillette “toxic masculinity” commercial surfaced), this video popped into my Youtube suggestions. Maybe it will be helpful

Is a place still available? If yes, I would like to join this project.
Is this Masculine flow?
i think that the messiah attributes (christ, siddharta, krishna) are the composition of the de-diferentiation and non-identification with any ideal of any gender.
masculinity and femininity are both based on sexual difference.
which means: There’s not a “being” or “essence” that makes something masculine or something femenine.
it’s the difference that makes it that way, it’s an ex-trinsic attribute, not in-trinsic. In other words, it’s outside of “what is”, this can be examplified with the following question:
“what is the femenine without the masculine?” or viceversa… what’s the masculine without the femenine? the differentiation is what makes them exist, not an essence or being.
for example,
what would mean to “be femenine” if “being masculine” would include:
- crying about anything or express emotions openly or express weakness and failure openly.
- caring tenderly about the weak.
the femenine would cease to exist in that scenario, because it only exists by opposition and differentiation.
if you deconstruct all oppositions and differentiations, both femenine and masculine cease to exists, also the identification and ideology that posses both.
that’s what a messiah achieves.
@JAAJ I bought Quintessence of Masculinity today. What does this one you posted do? It’s just a description of the Divine Masculinity or are there also embedded energies so i should hear it regularly?
And you are some kind of genius. I read your response to the OP. I couldn’t express verbally what you did or maybe it would take me dozens of hours to write such a response. It’s exactly what i think and feel about that topic.
I‘m into male development since 2017, just new to Sapien Medicine. And for me it’s the most important topic. It also has so much to do with self love and the law of attraction. Thx
Thank you very much.
I don’t know. I never gotten this one since the description of it is too abstract for me. I was not involved in the making of this.
Besides that, I also have a ton of masculinity related NFTs, so this one felt redundant to me personally.
Since you have it now, please post a testimonial in the respective thread after you have used it for some time.
Also go for trauma healing and check out the fields in the Self Love Stack.
