Toxic masculinity has ALWAYS meant extreme and malicious bravado. Always. Still does.

You are the one changing the definition and insisting women are attacking you somehow. Feminists want life to be better for BOTH men and women. I don't give a flying fuck how funny or vulnerable a man wants to be. What I care about is that so many men STILL beat up their wives and girlfriends, and do you know we don't even prosecute rape in this country? It's basically legal. Men get off scott free for rape. The conviction rate is less than a single percent. THAT is toxic masculinity. I don't give a shit if you're like Will Ferrell. What I'm sick of are men running around like crazy people raping and killing and behaving as though women are the ones who are too emotional to run things.

Women by and large are NOT your enemy. MEN are your own worst enemies.
