Obviously this is not what it means to be masculine, but many suggest that it is. Promoting anti-social toxic behaviors and equating them with masculinity is toxic masculinity.
- choko 4y agoCorrect, this is NOT what it means to be masculine, which means the behavior is just toxic. No good is served by coupling the two words and has only served to denigrate all masculinity. We don't typically use the term toxic femininity, even though there are women out there that display toxic traits which they link to feminity.
