Leather as a masculine cocoon
of emerging roles
a personality may undertake
within its existence
from birth until death
Spiritual Parameters bound by the physical laws
therefore forcing the spirit
to learn and grow
In the current time period
in which they exist
Been passed on from previous masculine generations like a caterpillar in chrysalis our outer garb is jumping
to protect soldiers from harm from weapons
CUIRASS as in shields used by soldiers in the ancient Greek and Roman era
during this time period leather was the first paper product to be written on by druids amd price of early Catholicism
leather also known to be used as sandals and footwear
Rationing Of Leather
During World War Two
certain things were rationed
for poor people such as the supply of leather.
This was especially true in Germany
but in the United States
this had a socio psychological aspect
to a change in culture.
As leather had been used for military and utility purposes,
before this, there could be seen a blend between the public sphere
that of the governed
Bought leather outside of the military spectrum
which carried over into the public
This is where a leather gets its masculine edge. Aside from carrying many of the same traits, traits that the male psyche tend to cling on to early on as a stereotype.
This was during a time period when military was a bound obligation to every male in order to serve his country and would see a man to a man to be a traitor and thrown in jail. For not obliging which in a lot of ways gives men an excuse for being such followers and homogenized
when things were tightly rationed, including leather in the United States
as with any commodity if a person had enough money, they could purchase supplies that were rationed at a higher rate.
This is also at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. When the haves and have nots were divided greatly by poverty.
The other end of the impoverished spectrum is the Uber wealthy who were the factory owners, politicians
Sons of wealthy white men who were making their massive profits off of the backs of slaves
The strong fusion between military men and wearing leather as a utilitarian textile changed after the Great Depression and World War Two
poor whites who were thought of no different than their colored counterparts often with the same education level.
WAhich was being leveled in order to make the products that we're making their bosses rich leather was one of these products
The weapon of money
So these wealthy young whites didn't have to serve in the military because they could buy their way out of service
yet wanted to replicate the masculine vibe that came with the leather apparel.
Worn by their fellow yet not thought of his equal peers
would buy military leather garb and wear it as a civilian
in order to muster an air of grandiosity and upper vantage point in the social hierarchy
cigars had the same effect in culture during that time period
cigars and smoking were thought of more in terms of military men
Rich White Boys
For the rich white boys
who were the sons of the plantation owners
the factory owners
The mine owners who raped slaves for sport
is the owner of poor men
the owner of colored men
the owner of women of which they considered
no more valuable than a mule
or any other animal the same
wave of wealthy generations that exists today
mainly white
Okay, let's say all white but for the token
who isn't even a token
amongst the generations young ladies
but for charity in a slip up
whose hormonal urges
were to slay the family's purebred
inbreeding enough to spare the family
the homage of a mentally handicapped
genetically flawed product of austerity
In the ample resources of DNA
DNA, which exists in the world
the upper crust not caught
in the act of splicing their genes.
If not for the fact that those genetics fray
if spliced too often from the same fabric
they're all white fabric and wielding
They were symbolic of upper class and luxury
could only be afforded by a certain tier of the social hierarchy.
Fitting In To The Stereotype
As far as the social hierarchy goes
by fitting into the mold of the majority
you are automatically working your way up the hierarchy
as opposed to being in the minority
which is a way of thinking of movement
in the hierarchy as not trying to progress upward
therefore slipping down in the hierarchy
of field of social placement
that involves your ability
to have resources

Social Hierarchy
is a symbolic representation
of your place in the social hierarchy
At this point in time
the stereotype of masculinity
was a blend of nature versus nurture
Much more so the nurture side of that equation
dynamics of the social hierarchy
in the majority and minority
this mold is what affects your placement
have to fit into is very rigid
social hierarchies in no regard are fair by nature
but they are a fact of nature
a phenomenon that exists across all species of animal
in some form or other
while the current Neoliberal system
does not seem fair compared
to its counterpart and predecessor
which involved might makes right
or if you're bigger and can take it
it's yours
that created the patriarchy and capitalism
