In the given text, the emphasis is on the increased urgency that women might experience.

In the latest issue of FUTURZWEI, titled "Numbers of Horror," the column "Voice of My Generation" delves into an intriguing conversation at a house party in Berlin. The article, penned by Ruth Fuentes and Aron Boks, raises questions about the role of gender in well-meaning behavior and the potential reinforcement of traditional gender roles.

The party, with its relaxed atmosphere and hip elements, was the setting for an encounter between the author and a man. The man, seemingly unsure of his actions, was called out on his behavior, which the author found to be sexist.

The man, upon being challenged, displayed a sense of uncertainty and even offered to let the author go first in line, assuming she may need it more due to her gender. While this gesture may have been well-meaning, the author felt that it was a reinforcement of gender roles and a small loss of power in the interaction.

The article also questions the presence of a poster in the hallway titled "What is also masculine," featuring various drawings of young men with hip haircuts and listing traits like "crying," "being sensitive," etc. The author wonders whether these traits are just normal behaviors of respectful people, and whether it's chauvinistic to even think about whether they could be masculine.

The role of feminism and the end of it are also topics raised in the article. The author questions the need for such a poster in a supposedly enlightened crowd, and whether it contributes to the perpetuation of traditional gender roles.

The new issue of FUTURZWEI, available in the shop, features contributions from Matthias Brandt, Dana Giesecke, Maja Göpel, Wolf Lotter, Armin Nassehi, Sönke Neitzel, Katja Salamo, and Harald Welzer. The issue focuses on military spending and fighting hunger.

Ruth Fuentes, born in 1995, was a Panter Volunteer until January 2023, and is currently 29 years old. Aron Boks, born in 1997, lives in Berlin as a slam poet and writer, and is 27 years old.

The search results do not provide specific information about who hung the poster with tips for male upbringing in the allegedly enlightened adult group. The author expresses a desire to argue with the man but feels that their well-meaning caution, feigned uncertainty, and displays of empathy are reinforcing gender roles.

The author continues to ponder the man's urinary habits in the apartment, a question left unanswered in the article. The conversation, however, serves as a reminder of the complexities of gender roles and the need for continuous introspection and dialogue.
