I just put up a new video with some thoughts about masculinity being considered toxic.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like the only "positive" quality of masculinity you're talking about is self-sacrifice. When men talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place, that's the rock. Self-sacrifice is positive for the people men sacrifice themselves for, but not necessarily for the man, and it's not always voluntary either.

Amazing video! I feel like you fill a void that exists on youtube. I find it hard to find psychology videos on youtube around this subject that I find helpful and I'm glad I subbed. I hope you keep posting more stuff! :)

I finished watching your video.

I have to say I like your take on everything.

It's amazing what rational people can come up with so long as they're not trying to interpret everything through the lense of "men bad, women good".

Yes masculine behavioral patterns can be bad for men, and even for women and society on occasion.

But it's not because men are bad or need to "be better". Those men are suffering. Their needs in life aren't being met. And so they lash out in unhealthy ways.

Women do the same thing and we have sympathy for them. We tell them to get help. We view their actions as excusable because she was hurting or suffering or had something bad happen to her.

People just don't seem to have the same empathy or compassion for men though.
