Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Tyler, 30, clapped back at a recent comment from a critic.
“He is so feminine,” the troll had written under one of the Teen Mom star’s recent posts.
But Tyler proudly told his 3.2m followers: “The femininity I inherited from my upbringing is one of my most confidentially secure traits as a man.
“I have no shame baby!”
Replying directly to the troll, he elaborated: “I was raised in a household full of women and I have no shame about any of the energies I may have inherited from it.
“I never witnessed the standards of acceptance in our society when it comes to masculine versus feminine and I feel blessed every day for that.”
Tyler and his wife Catelynn, 30, share daughters Novalee, seven, Vaeda, three, and Rya, one, as well as Carly, 13, whom they placed for adoption while they were still in high school.
In his comment, the proud dad continued: “I’m actually raising a household full of future women and I have the emotional maturity and experience to really help them as they grow up!

“I truly believe that is why I was not blessed with having my father around.”
He concluded: “Everything happens for a reason, and after witnessing so much toxic masculinity and the issues that come with it, I’m grateful I do not have to live my life with those sad limitations!”
‘GO TYLER GO!’
Fans gushed over Tyler’s inspiring post.
“I love this!” wrote one on social media.
“Go Tyler go! Raise empowered women that know what a man should be and know how they should be treated. I think this post is awesome.”
Another agreed: “I don’t think he is feminine to be honest, but it’s amazing that he remains strong and confident in himself despite what people think.”
“Good for him. His attitude is refreshing,” wrote a third.
OH MY, TY
Tyler’s words come after he impressed his fans with his recent weight loss transformation in a sexy new pic.
On Thursday, the MTV personality showed off his toned biceps and strong jawline as he held up his phone for a mirror selfie.

The gym-fanatic told his fans that he had shed 24 pounds in five months as he shared an impressive before-and-after photo.
Catelynn is often proud to show off her handsome hubby on social media.
In August, she bragged: “Look at my man. He’s like a fine wine – gets better and better with age!”
