I just live my life trying to be a good dude to people, and I never hear anyone talk about "masculinity" or whatever. I only see it on internet threads like this. Is this something that's talked about on cable news or something?

But you can be masculine without treating women like crap or trying to fight every dude you meet who says or does something you don't like.
Toxic masculinity = being a raging ###### bag and thinking it's normal.

It's true. It's the height of masculinity when you have to pay your way into a group of friends to get your back when you start fights in bars.
And you know, do all those weird things to each other during the hazing process. I guess I wasn't man enough to want all that.

My experience is that there are more chicks around when you are in a fraternity. I liked having more chicks around. I liked the parties we had packed with chicks. For some crazy reason, it's easier to get chicks when there are tons around.

the USC game in the parking lot. You really see it in music today. We both lamented on how music sucks now. I made the comment that music has lost it's "edge", and he agreed. This essentially KILLED rock music totally. It has been replaced by what I call "Pastel Rock", which is what you would hear on The Blend on sirriusxm. Bunch of men singing ##### lyrics in falsetto voice. If you want something that approaches rock music, with an edge, it will be sung by a FEMALE singer. Otherwise you have what they CALL rock now, which is really metal music, and not rock. Pisses me off to no end to listen to the top chart songs today and when you choose "rock" as the genre you get mostly metal.
And then there's even a change in the language itself. The ? sound, which is pronounced "eh", like sex, bet, best, etc. Most younger people now have replaced that traditional "eh" sound with an "?" which sounds like "ah" like bat, cat, alligator, etc.
So my "best frend" is now pronounced "bast frand". It's subtle, but overall it gives a gheyness effect to a lot of words, and it's so common now, especially among teens and young adults, and it's annoying as heck. It takes a masculine sounding word and makes it sound more feminine.
And don't get me started on gender neutral kids meal toys. The toys suck now, but they are also not designed to be gender specific. Except McDonald's. Waiting on that boycott and crisis to arise.

I mean, that’s possible.
Jan 17, 2019, 3:50 PM

Another possibility is that you are a person who can recognize obvious social issues, such as the high rate of suicide among men (3.5x that of women) and incarceration (10x that of women). Or, that you think there’s some correlation between toxic masculinity and issues for some women, say, the 20% of who have been raped or victims of attempted rape.

why indict men and masculinity for the rape of women?
Jan 17, 2019, 3:59 PM
|
|
why can't it just be bad people who did the ######?
As for suicide, same question? Could it not also be "toxic femininity" that places undue stress on en such that they kill themselves? Housewives werent jumping off buildings during the market collapse. Society (and women) expect a lot of men. How does that equate to toxic masculinity?
As for incarceration there are any number of reasons for gender disparity. Men are MUCH more likely to get the death penalty for a crime everything else being equal. Men receive harsher sentences in general and prosecutorial discretion favors women. Hey, we all know men are not favored in custody disputes.
so-called toxic masculinity is a mere scapegoat for other ills, IMO.

If you are a male, you've already been prejudged and found guilty of something. Gillette just put it in a commercial saying it out loud.
Can you imagine the uproar had that commercial that condemned all Muslims for the actions of a few? What if it showed two Muslim their kuffiyeh, one telling his friend to not blow up that Mosque? Chiding his friends for beheading children in the streets and that they should stop?
"Be the best Muslim you can be."
Yeah..that would have gone over big.

would go over if they referred to the abusive Catholic priests as examples of toxic homosexuality, or the Chicago gang violence as an example of toxic Afrocentricity?
I wonder if they'd be baffled when all the members of that group got angry, even when told "nooo, you're one of the "good" ones."
But somehow it's ok to paint 50% of the world's population with that broad brush and not feel a whit of remorse.

privilege, if you were to explain what it is to someone like say, The Prodigal(Just messing wit you Prod, kinda), who totally lives in a vacuum and is devoid of any knowledge of or influences from society at large.....They would find it completely ludicrous. It's laughably stupid. Same thing with toxic masculinity....
However, when you are able to apply pressure to people with guilt, they'll buy into some of the most ridiculous things you can imagine. Kids do it to their parents all of the time. Cry, whine, and act pitiful until rational thought is no longer part of the equation. People do it to their friends, and spouses. People don't like to feel guilty, and they'll abandon what they have to in order to free themselves from it.

This commercial stuff is the result of politically aligned special interest groups, who have a disproportionate voice in this country, pressuring organizations to further their narrow agendas. And under pressure of very bad press campaigns, they cave because if you are not a part of the victim class, you can't complain or you are immediately branded as sexist, racist, part of rape culture, etc. Debate is dead.... and with it dies Democracy.
People who take crap like this at face value are living in a friggin matrix simulation.
