CMV: Telling a man to "man up" is just as bad as telling a woman to "get back in the kitchen".

I say this because for some reason, in today's day and age, it's perfectly fine to tell a man to "man up". It's not only disrespectful, but also stereotyping. Everyone is different, and some men take this as an insult to their manhood. This shouldn't be allowed in today's society and it's time we put a stop to it, along with "get back in the kitchen." A man should be able to express his emotions without being judged by others, just like a woman has the right to work and express her own opinions without being judged.<br><br>EDIT:<br><br>Alright so this got a lot more attention than I thought it would. First off, yes, I am aware I am a male. Why does that matter? I just want to have a discussion about this topic. Second, I am also aware I am on Reddit. Yes, there is a lot of sexism on Reddit and I can't control that.<br><br>As for the arguments so far, a small amount of people have said that "man up" means "be strong". However, I think this only enforces the stereotype that men need to be strong. Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses, and it shouldn't be a requirement for men to be "strong" in order to be considered a man.<br><br>The only people who have tried to change my view have used "historical context" as an excuse, saying that this phrase was used back in the day when men were in the draft, which makes no sense to me at all.<br><br>EDIT 2:<br><br>I'm just going to stop responding to people. The only people trying to change my view haven't been able to do so because they justifying the use of the phrase "man up". You can't try to change someone's view by justifying the use of the phrase "man up", you need to try and convince me that it is okay to use this phrase unsociably, and nobody has done that so far.
