My wife and I are expecting our first child and we’re planning on making him my Jr.

Please don’t tell me that masculinity is stupid or toxic. I’m 27, and I want to become more traditionally masculine. Growing up, I was bullied a lot (I have ASD) and as a result, I’ve never really had high confidence and I’ve always been afraid of confrontation. I don’t want to be like that anymore. I also didn’t grow up with an active father, so I don’t know how to do a lot of manly things like working with tools or fixing different things.
