I remember one Father's Day, when I was little. My sister and I gave my father a "How to Fix Anything", do it your self book. He was furious that we put him in a "masculine" box, thinking that the only thing we thought of, when we thought of him was a "fix it guy".
One the other hand, I remember him going absolutely crazy on me when I told him about how I was learning about radio waves, and how they are created when photon collides with an electron. He screamed at me "No wonder you can't catch a man! Men don't like smart ass talky women!"
I do think expectation and gender roles need to be looked at more closely.

I think "toxic femininity" is a result of crafty females using their ever evolving wiles to make men think "it was his idea", or use guilt trips, peer pressure and manipulation to get an upper hand in societies where women have been oppressed for generations.

Guys that have problems holding in their emotions might just have a chemical Imbalance. In a pussified world it might be driving some guys over the edge, emotionally. Reverse psychology. Your a Man being told by the world not to be a Man. Confusing for the younger generation who don't know anything else.

Sounds like the course is going to take him from being a capable, strong guy into an emotional, weak minded pussy.
Toxic masculinity? Ffs...

That's the way way is been headed for a while now. Genetically altered food grown in poison. Dangerous chemicals in water. A world that's become socially insane. What could possibly go wrong?
