There is no such thing as toxic masculinity. fuck societal terms. fuck political correctness.
A new word invented by the "woke" crowd to describe toxic traits that are society considered masculine. These traits include violence, sexual aggression, and dominance. In reality this is just a new word for anti-social personality disorder. This personality disorder can be observed in both males and females but is more prevalent in males which is why the "woke" crowd has deemed these traits as masculine. These traits can be applied to society as a whole regardless of gender. The fact that these traits are being labeled as masculine in the first place is sexist.
Person A: Serial Killers exhibit the most toxic masculinity. Person B: Isn't that just anti-social personality disorder.
A term to describe aggression, particularly from a male. The female equivalent of the term, for aggression from a female, feminine toxicity, does not exist or has not been pushed in popular U.S. media as there is no push for such an openly sexist term as there has been for the term "toxic masculinity."
Ron Swanson's toxic masculinity is a danger towards the U.S.!
A social science term that describes narrow repressive type of ideas about the male gender role, that defines masculinity as exaggerated masculine traits like being violent, unemotional, sexually aggressive, and so forth. Also suggests that men who act too emotional or maybe aren’t violent enough or don’t do all of the things that “real men” do, can get their “man card” taken away. Many people confuse the difference between Masculinity and toxic Masculinity. However, one can be masculine without having toxic Masculinity. Some beliefs of toxic masculinity is that: -interactions between men and women always has to be competitive and not cooperative. -men can never truly understand women and that men and women can never just be friends. -That REAL men need to be strong and that showing emotion is a sign of weakness... unless it’s anger, that is considered okay. -The idea that men can never be victims of abuse and talking about it is shameful. -The idea that REAL men always want sex and are ready for it at any time. -The idea that violence is the answer to everything and that REAL men solve their problems through violence. -The idea that men could never be single parents and that men shouldn’t be very interactive in their children’s learning and development and that men should always be the dominant one in the relationship or else he’s a “Cuck.” -The idea that any interest in a range of things that are strictly considered feminine would be an emasculation of a guy.
Guy: A Real Man doesn’t stay home and take care of his kids while his wife works. You’re a cuck. Other guy: I don’t need your toxic Masculinity and preconceived notions of what it means to be a “real mean.”
is when you think you have to stand up to pee in order to somehow prove to yourself that you're a real man. A real man, however, stands up to pee because he choses to, not because somebody's idea of masculinity says he should. Likewise, he can damn well chose to sit down to piss if he so desires.
Masculinity is awesome. It is when it becomes forced that it becomes toxic masculinity, and it helps nobody.
