    ...problems. The problem is, you're still rewarded very handsomely in today's world in MANY circles for demonstrating the tenants of toxic masculinity. Dominate your competitors, show no weakness, feelings are for cowards, win at all costs, losers are wimps, project virility in all phases of...

    Racist infrastructure bill is racist...

    I think about this all the time too. Pride in your work and achievements, strength (or manliness I guess), merit based growth / advancement, and many other things are certainly at the core of how I was raised. They can certainly create a lot of angst framed the way you’re talking about them...

    Jesus Christ our kids are soft

    That is effing stupid AF. Someone slap this kid then feed him some black coffee, bacon, and over easy eggs so he can finally grow some hair on his berries. Why are people cheering, stop cheering this type of stupidity on (not the safety measures, but the political hero worship that so many in...

    Opinion: The Youngkin playbook won’t work for Herschel Walker

    ...Rep. Paul A. Gosar (R-Ariz.) for posting a violent video. Republicans, it seems, have habituated themselves to unseemly characters. In a party of toxic masculinity, an affinity for violence might be a plus for their candidates. Walker, a novice candidate, has predictably avoided the...

    Yeah, IMHO it's hard to differentiate doing "manly" things vs. the psychological need to be manly as it relates to toxic masculinity. You can do a lot of hunting, shooting, and sports without feeding an innate desire to dominate those around you. But make no mistake for someone that...

    I think you are definitely on to something. Much of that mindset is probably subconcscious and baked in, too. Oddly, my dad is a Vietnam War combat vet, avid outdoorsman/fishing/hunting guy who likes shooting guns and sports and other traditional "manly" stuff - as do I - but both of us have...

    I don't know if toxic masculinity is still the approved term for it, but in general - that's the biggest problem IMHO. We still have very active generations that were brought up to dominate, be aggressive, show no weakness, etc. Kinder, gentler was not how you won. Nice guys finish last...

    Oklahoma football player Spencer Jones gets his ass beat in

    Shoving the shoulder was technically assault. Chalk it up to mutual combat and forget about it. That was some awesome toxic masculinity. Really gets my juices flowing.

    Jesus Christ our kids are soft

    Talking about how soft someone is . . . that's bullying. Doing it behind their back is the most cowardly weak form of bullying that exists. Also now this is about taking care of your body? Let me quote what you said First of all the kid is not in bad shape. He's not muscular, but he's...

    What is a "woman?"

    Love how you think that me being comfortable in my non-toxic masculinity and not needing to diminish others sexuality makes you think I'm weak.

    What should the theme song be for the Iowa Hawkeyes?

    ...aggressive and heavier (but not too heavy, the song needs a wider appeal) than the average song. Dare I say it, it should ooze "toxic masculinity." The jump around at UW is fun, etc. and it gets the crowd going, but it isn't exactly creating or reinforcing an attitude, personality, or...

    “Resistance: How Women Saved Democracy from Donald Trump”

    ...media. The hate email and tweets, often threatening and antisemitic, were a preview of what was to come for me and for scores of women when MAGA’s cult of toxic masculinity implicitly encouraged its devotees to harass and threaten critics of its leader. For months, I harbored some hope that...

    What is a "woman?"

    ...think that being comfortable or compassionate for other’s beliefs about their sexuality makes you weak at all. You using the term toxic masculinity unironically, however, is a whole different story. I think we can be compassionate towards others without perpetuating a lie about what they are...

    Opinion: Elections are about the future. Democrats forget this at their own peril

    ...under President Biden. Republicans’ 2016 nostalgic appeal was an anomaly. They bet that disgruntled Whites longed for an America where toxic masculinity was celebrated, where a college education was not needed to sustain a comfortable middle-class lifestyle, where Whites could take refuge in...

    Republicans fault Buttigieg for time off with newborns. Democrats say he’s showing the need for paid parental leave.

    ...a new child into your life and it’s going to change everything in your home and you’re going to need time to adjust to that, to bond with that child to go through the transition.” Allred said attacks on Buttigieg are rooted in toxic masculinity and other worldviews that suggest men don’t need...

    Michael Gerson: Opinion: Kevin McCarthy emerges as a demagogue in his own right

    ...a violation of federal law. But that is presumably the point: McCarthy wants to show his chest hair and spitting skills in a party where toxic masculinity has become the dominant political philosophy. It is possible, even probable, that the minority leader is also hiding something — either...
