#toxmasc
the argument about a lot of these toxmasc films is that they show that toxic masculinity is bad...but the thing is that bad/good is often less important than narrative primacy.

who gets to be at the center of the story matters more than any moral statement, good or bad.

Don't get me started with the kind of bloke who interrupts conversations on toxmasc to go 'so this means you think ALL masculinity is toxic???' Like no m8, when we say 'don't drink salt water' we don't mean 'all water is salty'

Ironically some toxmasc clown "remembering the great speaker CK" was the first local recommendation from youtube besides the major news outlets.

what i’ve come to learn and understand, is learning how to cook *is* fighting fascism

and if i do write that gender divide post this will go into it. this is how we beat toxmasc imo

This is exactly the thing when the subject of toxic masculinity comes up — or even feminism itself. People fly off the handle at the terms and surface presentation without understanding that toxmasc is deeply harmful to men and feminism usually understands that as well.

So many toxmasc dudes in wrestling gear at the airport.

me in high school if either a) i were 10% more understanding/unafraid of my inclination toward girlhood, or b) my friends att were 10% more misogyny+toxmasc as humor

part and parcel of performative toxmasc is using sexhaving/conquest/ownership of female bodies as status symbols for climbing the hierarchy of *other males*; it's very disconnected from sex as enjoyable connection to another person

ToxMasc i Sveriges store idol, tidenes mest elendige krigsleder men av ulike perioder av svensk høyreekstremisme vært dyrket som DEN STORE KUNG, omtrent samtidig med Ludde over.

he's a little sullen bc he associates caregiving with women (not entirely wrong) even tho his mom (not his mama) is toxmasc af who throws a fit if we dress him in pink.

Okay I hate everything about the thing you screenshotted.

I hate how smug and judgmental it is. How condescending.

To be clear, I’m none of the things this described other than striving to grow past toxmasc upbringing.

But this preening bullshit is maddening and gross.

Maybe I'm just that jaded with toxmasc (yes that's a term now), but I take them seriously *because* of how effeminate they are.

Well, this place may be tumbleweed central, but at least I’m not getting Bitcoin ads, ToxMasc grifters and Chapo Wannabe Shitposters on my TL. Seems like a fair trade.

Toxmasc

Absolute recipe for disaster, even if you remove Liverpool from that thinking so as to not speculate

Ganz schön viel toxmasc Scheisse dabei. Hätte allerdings gedacht 67 sei wieder verschwunden und LARPen find ich jetzt garnicht mal so Gen-Alpha spezifisch. Nutz ich als Millenial schon gefühlt 10 Jahre.

Wie steht ihr eigentlich zu diesem Virgin-Chad Meme?
Hätte da 'nen richtig tollen Anwendungsfall wo's passen würde ... allerdings keinen Bock auf allosexuelle toxmasc Scheisse

I had to and am still working through a lot of toxmasc stuff. But yeah, so many things no longer threaten that part of me.

Is it also a mechanism to push the resultant moral outrage over sexual violence onto other minority groups who do not benefit from patriarchal oppression?

Does viewing men as having a bio-essential lean to sexual violence, anger, and harm, actually SUPPORT a patriarchal/toxmasc status quo?
August 29, 2025 at 10:15 AM
Well doing that sounds a lot like me "mansplaining feminism". I got 50 hostile responses so most top-level replies have been on meta conversation.

How feminism trickles down to avg men who have done less reading than me is much more culturally important to stop toxmasc than obscure feminist authors

It's going to sound like some ToxMasc bullshido madness but we have to come to terms with our strongest asset; bodies. You have to think of yourself as a body and accept what happens.

When it comes down to it, we either stand or we fall by this

#WillFerrell telling it like it is:
#WomonPower!

La #MasculinitéToxique va croître encore un tit peu car de faibles hommes vont se sentir émasculés de ne plus être hégémoniques
Pauv' tit pits!

More power to us!

The toxmasc boys need to read this.
I would actually appreciate reading an article about if / why men don't view dating in this way
There’s a viral theory called "Shrekking" that beautiful college women are “dating down,” but they don’t quite see it that way.

“I would rather be with someone who treats me well but isn’t as good looking than have someone who doesn’t treat me well but has good looks.”

“Straight Gamer Men” The Toxmasc Tateites tend to have a type. I think using the term “activists” is stupid in this context. The devs were being culturally accurate. An artist will see the beauty wherever it is. However, as a gamer as well, I do love some glamtasy on occasion. Accuracy first.

Hangperson Adam Page að hitta botninn og reyna toxmasc style að klifra upp alveg sjálfur.
Prince Nana að reyna endurheimta heirloom sloppinn sinn
Queen Aminata að loksins fá breik.
Christian Cage og öll patriarchy shenanigans, að vera enn að finna ferskt efni í að sökka sem föðurfígúra er unaðslegt.

The most charitable guess I can give:

It might've been an attempt to defang the future of the toxmasc movement by setting a broader & supportive definition early in young kids' minds, so the Tate-isms applied (when they're inevitably exposed to those later) come off as fake?

IDK that's a long shot
