1	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." if women can perpetuate "toxic masculinity", the idea doesn't have anything to do with masculinity This statement is the basis of your misunderstanding as it is categorically false. I don't really know how to explain such an incredibly simple concept that thing A can affect thing B, even if thing A is a different thing. It feels like trying to prove 1+1=2. Like Indian culture can affect English culture, even though they aren't English and vice versa. Women can affect masculinity, even if they ar…	/r/MensRights	19/01/19 02:14 AM
1	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." Good shit now you're paying attention. You are absolutely 100% right. Both women and men perpetuate negative ideas about masculinity. This is not a fight of women vs men, this is women and men vs toxic masculinity and the people that perpetuate it. The misogynists that infest this subreddit spend insane amounts of time and effort trying to convince well-meaning people like you that it is a fight between women and men, because then you are forced to take the side of men, and fight women. If they …	/r/MensRights	19/01/19 01:15 AM
2	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." Cool you aren't interested in details, fine. You can check out if you don't care enough, but you forfeit your right to shout your opinion and get mad about stuff if you aren't willing to consider nuance beyond "rape is bad". edit: also i would be fascinated to know what you disagree with in that article you linked, it seems totally reasonable to me, lots of issues this subreddit likes to complain about addressed as issues of toxic masculinity	/r/MensRights	19/01/19 12:50 AM
3	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." Ok you just want to find a way to make this an attack on you personally for some reason. I can't reason with someone who is so desperate to find a reason to be insulted and then be so thin skinned that an insult makes them incoherently angry.	/r/MensRights	19/01/19 12:24 AM
4	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." Toxic masculinity is the idea that society's ideas of masculinity encourage those bad things in men. Violence, aggression and anger are symptoms that show up more in men than women. And that is bad for men and feminists want to fix it in order to help men and women. Of course there is a reason for the term to exist because it describes something. It describes the distinct features of masculinity we think cause those disproportionate negative symptoms in men.	/r/MensRights	18/01/19 11:22 PM
2	"Toxic Masculinity isn't the problem. Lack of Masculinity is." If you lack the capability to parse basic English phrases it does. That's like saying " there are red cars" implies all cars are red. You have to be intentionally, and likely maliciously, trying to misinterpret the English language in order to think toxic masculinity implies masculinity is bad. But being intentionally dishonest in order to feel like a victim is pretty normal for this subreddit.	/r/MensRights	18/01/19 11:04 PM
-1	Apparently to Vice news talking about men’s rights is comparable to white supremacy and the Nazi’s "How dare you call me combative!? Downvoted!"	/r/MensRights	01/12/17 08:48 PM
-4	What feminism would stand for if they were for equality The point they are making is that feminists apparently want the male equivalents of all these things e.g. male circumcision and the forcing men to sign up for selective service at 18 etc. Which would be real hypocritical and cruel if true. The problem being that is an absurd strawman that has nothing to do with feminism, which doesn't advocate at all for the reduction of men's rights, only the increase of women's up to an equal footing. Most reasonable people are perfectly aware of this. The res…	/r/MensRights	19/02/17 09:49 PM
4	When I was in the Army this made me want to rip my hair out. Male to female rapes continue to happen, do you think /r/mensrights would upvote me to +40 for calling all men rapists? Oh wait, that kind of equality is exactly what you lot fight against, but you couldn't pass up an opportunity to be cynical and cruel to a group of vulnerable people based on the actions of a minority. You know, I only ever pass this subreddit occasionally via /r/all, but the amount of hypocrisy, misogyny, and downright cruelty to certain demographics always makes me angry, so …	/r/MensRights	01/09/12 01:56 AM
4	When I was in the Army this made me want to rip my hair out. I accept all of that fully, now please me why you think that means it's acceptable for the top voted comment in this entire thread to call them all cheating parasites considering you accept it's a minority of women, and the majority are faithful, and do have to live in this awful situation?	/r/MensRights	01/09/12 12:28 AM
-18	When I was in the Army this made me want to rip my hair out. Not often enough for AnnArchist to insult a huge group of people in a horrible position (army wives) and essentially call them lazy parasites and whores. Not knowing from one day to the next whether your husband was killed overnight while holding together a family and for many of them still working their own jobs is not an easy thing to do. I actually agree with the original post, that poster is sexist and unfair, but what AnnArchist said just makes me angry. Edit: I should mention that this all…	/r/MensRights	31/08/12 11:38 PM
-54	When I was in the Army this made me want to rip my hair out. What a horrible comment that is. You cynical bastard.	/r/MensRights	31/08/12 10:47 PM
