Okay, obviously not all masculinity is toxic, that's just ridiculous. But toxic masculinity IS a thing. Like the idea that men shouldn't show there emotions, or the idea that close male friendships or platonic affection between two guys are automatically gay. This is coming from a girl who, obviously, has never had to deal with toxic masculinity.
Sadly I think a lot of the worlds men-turned-whatever switch because they get persecuted for being a guy only the to face persecution as whatever they become. I think humanity just wants to pick a bone but their are no dogs around so they kill the first they find
They aren’t saying being masculine is toxic, they’re saying bullying other guys for not being masculine enough, treating women like shit, and generally being a dick to everyone is toxic masculinity because guys who are masculine but do these things aren’t toxic.
Reply to me with a meme or an ignorant comment, that’s what your generation is good at, along with taking selfies and seeking validation for your shitty personality and the way you treat others. Things that matter, like voting and giving a f**k - don’t matter to you. So, go back to playing fort nite and call of duty while you call the other players “f*gs” and “racial slurs,” completely being toxic, but stay your ignorant ass of the internet and out of society you heartless piece of shit.
Yes, I provide three points of evidence that show you are wrong, and you instantly go to ad hominem, then double down showing how much subconscious bias you have against men by claiming that Gillette was 100% correct in how it wants men to be women; but I'm the ignorant self toxic one.
Nah, I agree with Gillette 100% and it’s about time they said what should be known. Having to tell grown men that it’s disrespectful to be shitty to a woman or to bully people is incredible. This is common sense and decency as a human being. There’s nothing wrong with being masculine, but when you use your masculinity as a weapon to oppress others, than you’re a toxic pathetic human being. I want women to succeed, a woman gave birth to me.
Look, there are behaviors that most people can agree are objectionable. I am not a rapist. I do not grope or harass women, and generally support them as being equivalent to men. There are things that women do that are objectionable as well. It is not all men or women that are a problem. Some few bad actors "give the rest a bad name." When you say things like "toxic masculinity" you aren't addressing just the bad actors, you attacking an entire sex - whether you meant to or not.
My beard isn't because of caring what others like. It's because I'm enough of a wreck that I actually forget I have one. That and if I don't have a beard, everyone thinks I'm a woman because without one I look like a brunette Ellen DeGeneres.
Yet feminists who don’t do those things constantly are labeled as ugly, unprofessional, and undesirable. Some have even lost jobs for using their natural hair, wearing less or no makeup, and getting butt reductions.
I understand the joke and it is funny but when you view things from their perspective they don’t blame feminism for forcing them to look that way. They blame men who force them to and magazines for programming their children into accepting it.
From what I understand, their arguement isn’t that all masculinity is toxic but that there is a toxicity to over masculinity when one fails to consider the other perspective.
Well, then try getting more friends who are women and ask them if this has ever happened to them. And if you are a woman, then tell those women who are telling you to do those things to f**k off. Especially if you work for 'em.
I'm not a woman, and I have gotten so tired of telling women to stand up for gender equality in the workplace that I have stopped bothering telling them to tell the feminists to f**k off about enforcing hair styling and makeup requirements.
That is why i keep saying that that I have seen.You seem to have a problem differentiating between anecdotal evidence and datum. All of the evidence I have seen indicates that the most misogynistic people in the workplace are women. You foolishly claim that I must be trying tout myself as some expert claiming that there aren't any sexist men, when I have clearly stated that I only reference what I have seen. Good job at ignoring reality to further confirm your own bias.
Forgive my skepticism. It is my experience that women are not so open about their experiences, especially in the workplace. I don't think you're lying and I'm certainly not saying women cannot be misogynistic. However, I don't see how your experience is valid in countering my argument that men inflict their personal preferences of women's appearances in the workplace. If anything, I'm happy that those sort of things don't happen in your experience. But if you are saying that just because it doesn't happen to you, or the people you know; means that it doesn't happen at all - then you can see why I might disagree with you.
4 u harold, this is u. I know the score like the back of my hand
Them other boys, I don't give a damn
They kiss on the ring, I carry the crown
Nothing can break, nothing can break me down
Don't need no advice, I got a plan
I know the direction, the lay of the land
I know the score like the back of my hand
Them other boys, I don't give a damn
I'm the man, come round
Nothing can break, nothing can break me down
I'm the man, come round and
Nothing can break, you can't break me down
I got gas in the tank
I got money in the bank
I got news for you baby, you're looking at the man
I got skin in the game
I got a household name
I got news for you baby, you're looking at the man
When it comes to Friday, I always earn
But don't try to teach me, I got nothing to learn
'Cause baby I'm gifted
WOMEN WEAR MAKEUP, DYE THEIR HAIR WITH CHEMICALS, PAINT THEIR NAILS, GET SILICONE BUTT AND BREAST IMPLANTS AND HAVE BACTERIAL INJECTIONS TO REMOVE WRINKLES; THEN THEY SAY BEING MASCULINE IS TOXIC
hotkeys: D = random, W = like, S = dislike, A = back
