OP here.
Femininity can be toxic just like masculinity. Right now we have a society where masculinity is considered toxic and anything feminine is considered good and morally correct. It creates an imbalance, and that was the point of my post.
Lets take mental health for example. If someone has triggers the feminine approach would be to comfort them and try to create an environment where that person isn't exposed to their triggers. The masculine approach would be to tell them to toughen up.
Thing is you need a bit of both. You need to give people some level of support but at the same time exposure to their trigger can help them overcome it in some scenarios. Or in other words "toughen up".
I see masculinity and femininity as a yin and yang type thing.
