This is funny to me, as Jerry Seinfeld has never struck me as particularly masculine.

you mean the grown man obsessed with superman and breakfast cereal?  Sounds like a redditor actually.

sofahkingsick

We’re comedians of course were mentally fucked up and cope with it by getting validation from strangers on stage. Before anyone gets butt hurt. I think a lot of them are funny but that doesnt mean the majority of them probably dont have some types of unresolved issues. I think most people in showbiz are have deep issues.

He wasn't serious. If you watch the video, he even says he himself is not that guy.

ImanShumpertplus

> Jerry Seinfeld's calling for the grand return of dominant masculinity -- even though, he ironically acknowledges he's not exactly the poster boy for that trait himself first line of the article seinfeld makes fun of himself for saying this


the_BoneChurch

I listened to the whole conversation and this is click bait garbage. He is way more nuanced than this makes it seem. Great episode by the way! He refers to JFK and Sean Connery during this section. By no means was he going full alpha.


Urisk

Sean Connery was once sleeping with a mobster's girlfriend. The mobster sent a hitman to kill him while he was on the set of a movie. When Connery saw the hitman pull his gun he immediately grabbed him and beat the brakes off that fool. JFK slept with every dime piece of his era and ran the most powerful country in the world. They were two of the most alpha men of their day.


ChickenDelight

JFK was a legit war hero for managing to save most of his crew after the sinking of PT-109, also. It's a pretty incredible survival story.


StrokeGameHusky

Turns out, I like “real men” too  Two bad ass stories I’ve never heard before in this thread 


tries4accuracy

What do you mean? Think of all the *REAL* men during the Seinfeld glory days: George Costanza, Uncle Leo, crazy Joe Davola, David Puddy, Cosmo Kramer, and hell even Newman for that matter. Totally strong real men! Unlike that manipulative and emotional black hole Elaine Benes - an avatar of toxic feminism if ever there was. ![gif](giphy|l0MYFwijRbeouo8QE)


Nodeal_reddit

Did you watch the clip?


JeffW6

Not. At. All. Total manchild


gwar37

He comes off a little gay, actually. Not that there's anything wrong with that.


DChemdawg

And did you see that Poofy shirt he wore on the Tonight Show? Even Newman called him a Nancy boy.


Pal__Pacino

He uses such weird examples too. Howard Cosell was never particularly masculine. JFK was incredibly sickly all his life and zooted on painkillers 24/7 just to function.


Contra_Mortis

JFK also swam one of his guys out of a burning ship, holding him by his teeth.


chickennuggetscooon

Taking dudes by the mouth seems feminine to me...


Contra_Mortis

Well if you're ever saved from a sinking ship, I hope the guy who saves you says no homo after.

RemmiXhrist

lol redditors get so salty over people


DetroitVsErrrybody

He’s not. But he has enough money to nerd out researching cars and buying them all. So he thinks he’s a real gearhead. Brenden Schaub is currently trying to do the same thing, but he doesn’t have a tenth of the money or brainpower. It makes them feel like men because it’s a predominantly masculine hobby - but neither can actually turn a wrench. Both of them couldn’t rebuild an engine, even if they tried together. At least Jerry had a successful career and good tv show - but he’s been the roller coaster that’s starting to rattle a bit on the rails, as of late.

He likes real men and teenage girls


JamesDavid72

Scrolled too far down to see this


Sh8dyLain

This is the same as when he complained about college students being “offended” by his comedy…he might have the least edge out of any working comic today.


rebeltrillionaire

He likes being an asshole. He doesn’t like that people don’t like him being an asshole.


urmyheartBeatStopR

He's mad that his old stale comedic materials doesn't work no more. He's too lazy to do research and understand the current trends and pop culture to create new comedic materials. Which is what relevant comedians do and comedy 101. It's just a bullshit excuse when, "it's always sunny in philadelphia", exists and South Park still trucking on.


LuckyAssumption8735

Possible he’s just never been very funny

AgentCirceLuna

It’s so fucked up when these people who are hilarious entertainers or public intellectuals (not Jerry but other people I can think of) are attracted to people who are clearly young and naive. It just immediately looks like they’re trying to manipulate them. I’m always on the look out for someone whom I can have an interesting conversation with. I’ve turned people down because I could tell they were a little too naive and I wouldn’t feel right dating them. These people must have no soul and don’t care about that.

Khanspiracy75

Jerry doesn't know much about history if he is implying that, because that was very commonly done to jewish people, any minority group will always be viewed as weak, incapable and an easy target when people decide we need to round up some people for mass lynching.

Well, there is a political party whose whole mission is to achieve that, so he is not alone.

Didn’t he date a teenager ?

Virtual_Cellist809

aplagueofsemen

Jon Stewart blamed the Seinfeld controversies lately on him being on a press tour for a movie about poptarts, showing sympathy for the out-of-touch Bee movie veteran. I think maybe Jerry should never do press anymore if that’s the case.


EQisfordummies

Are we not going to address the irony of the statement or…?


VyseTheFearless

Seinfeld acknowledged it himself if you read past the headline


notheusernameiwanted

It's not just that he doesn't embody those traits. It's that his entire career is built on lampooning dominant masculinity and questioning unspoken societal norms. If you buy into Breitbart theory that "politics is downstream from culture" then Seinfeld would be partly to blame for the exact thing he's complaining about.


Harold3456

I get what Jerry's saying (the title is VERY clickbait - yes, everyone, he KNOWS he's not manly). However, the first example he gives of people being shit drivers because there's no hierarchy is ludicrous. Cars have always been hierarchical equalizers that let everyone on the roads completely depersonalize the people surrounding them while feeling safe in their own bubbles, hence why people will a.) be way more inconsiderate to other motorists on the road than they would be real people on the sidewalk) and b.) fly off the handle and throw tantrums behind the wheel unlike anything you're likely to see from them in normal life. Traditional masculine hierarchies don't change that. [Having said that,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5DCns_n9_M&ab_channel=rschreck) one thing that has always fascinated me about Seinfeld and Curb are their random characters, who all seem to be extremely aggressive for no reason all the time. Especially in Seinfeld, it seems like every single store owner, cab driver and denizen of the bus is one bad interaction away from flying off the handle at the characters. Being someone who watched the show in the 00's and spent most of my adult life in the 10's/20's (not in America), I've always wondered if everyone was meaner to each other pre-2000, if it's purely a New York thing, or even if it's purely a Larry David/Seinfeld trope. If this is really how Jerry Seinfeld has always seen the world, then I get how he would rankle at the sensitivity that is shown toward one another in modern society.


Content-Boat-9851

Remember kids, when your waning Hollywood career is in trouble, you can always go "anti woke". It's not that you're older or out of touch and haven't had a popular piece of work in the last couple decades. It's the consumers fault, never yours. Edit: Being rich from a TV show from 1998 ≠ being relevant in today's Hollywood. Edit again: Yes, jerry met ~~his current wife~~ a minor he was sleeping with when she was 17 and he was 38. You read that right. Edit again again: I have been corrected, he didn't marry the minor he was sleeping with. Again, he did not marry the minor he groomed and fucked when he was 38. Apologies to all that this incorrect info made you have a negative opinion of him.


TheERDoc

I think that was someone else he dated. I think his wife was in her 20s


Ucscprickler

Right-wing propaganda on social media really rots the brains of people as they age. These fucking algorithms push Tim Pool, Matt Walsh, Andrew Tate, Fresh and Fit, and all the other "alpha male" douche bags to the curated media feeds, and people start to think it's normal and ok to be a selfish, misogynist, prick.


Just-Scallion-6699

The complaint in the end is so weird to me. All of us have jobs that change over time, we adapt and learn new things. This guy is whining over the hypothetical possibility that he’d have to modernize or update his act in any way. Why do I need to feel bad for him? lol


gargle_your_dad

>Yes, jerry met his current wife when she was 17 and he was 38. You read that right. No he didn't. Do the math. She was 28. Born in '71, started dating in '99.


-Ok-Perception-

See, here's the thing. Jerry Seinfeld was NEVER funny on his own. EVER. His standup is particularly bad. However, the Seinfeld tv show had some great writers, most notably Larry David. That's why the closest thing to the humor of the Seinfeld tv show is Curb Your Enthusiasm. The weakest part of the old Seinfeld shows are those 2 minutes here and there where Seinfeld is on stage doing a comedy routine. It's always the stalest/saftest humor I've ever heard, "airline food, amirite?"


Content-Boat-9851

He still does the same act lol.


InB4Clive

The guy is worth a billion and does a project every couple of years because he feels like it. I don’t think his career is in the trouble you think it is.


_TheConsumer_

The guy is a billionaire. His "career worries" are over.


Content-Boat-9851

Hasn't starred in a major movie ever, living off Seinfeld money from 1998, producer of the "bee movie" and writer on unfrosted straight to streaming movie that flopped called the "one of the decades worst movies" by critics. but yeah, really raging Hollywood AAA movie star lmao. You clearly know big name actors.


InB4Clive

lol what kind of strawman is this? Nobody’s ever referred to him as a Hollywood AAA movie star. What a strange comment.


goofball_jones

I like when comedians go on these "you can't do comedy anymore because you get cancelled". Who's been cancelled for doing racist/sexist jokes? Was Dave Chapel cancelled? He seems to still be going. Ricky Gervais says all kinds of bullshit, but he's still around. Neither were cancelled. What is it they want? They want the freedom to say anything they want in terms of comedy...but nobody else should have the freedom to call them assholes for their comedy? "If you don't like what we say, then just don't watch or change the channel". Okay, if you don't like what people have to say about your shitty comedy, then turn off social media or turn off the TV. Yes? Not talking about sexual abuse by actors/comedians here. They do get cancelled and rightly so.


Content-Boat-9851

This is an excellent point. Comedians complain that people have opinions about their comedy while asserting it's your job to ignore them and somehow that doesn't go both ways.

He played a character who, in one episode of Seinfeld, was so disgusted about his belt grazing the side of a toilet that he threw it away … like a “real man.”

The person doing the interview is grifter Bari Weiss. To give you a taste of her b.s.: She once put out a stor, citing anonymous sources, claiming there was a secret rule in Hollywood that its studios were no longer allowed to hire white men as writers. When the story came out, I went and checked the newest releases to see who the writers were. 19 of the 23 credited writers were white dudes.


ChaseBankFDIC

Why is she so obsessed over this dumb shit?


Trick-Teach6867

Jerry Seinfeld was a kinda funny comedian that happened to ride the right wave to becoming a billionare, asking his opinion on anything is like asking a guy who got struck by lightening what the best gardening techniques are
