Students Hate Toxic Masculinity... But Can't Define What It Is

Well I suppose 'cooties' sounds a bit childish when you're over 18.

Deep down, I know what toxic masculinity is. It's a wildcard argument for women. Him: 'I don't think you sleeping with other men is good for our relationship'. Her: 'That's toxic masculinity'

I wonder what would happen if someone asked these students if they knew the difference between a College Student and a Useful Idiot?

I’ve always thought of ‘Toxic Masculinity’ as what women say when a married man won’t sleep with them.

As best I can tell here's the right answer:

Toxic masculinity is the social constructs that stigmatize male victimhood while promoting agression and emotionlessness.

It's different from regular masculinity, which promotes honor, responsibility, and fraternity/comradery.

That's because toxic masculinity is basically "anything bad that men do can be attributed to masculinity, so there must be some toxic element to it, even if that isn't empirically supported either generally or according to specific elements of masculinity"

Marxism is by and large a thought experiment and used as a means to power. There's no empirical approach or even attempt in its modern forms such as feminism.

Just declare someone an enemy, and if they object then that's just proof that they're the problem since they're not even listening.
