That is not really how gay relationships work.

A good example would be from a Grindr profile I recently read:

"Men basically have two feelings: hungry and horny. So if I don't see you with an erection, I'll make you a sandwich."

That is how you find and keep a man, amirite?

Hilariously that is a HUGE part of that nasty toxic masculinity.

George Carlin had an interesting bit about the stupid shit lots of men are guilty of doing, well before these types of attitudes and behaviors became known as toxic masculinity.

Pretty much everything EI, Raptor and Bash said is toxic masculinity.

Toxic Masculinity is essentially just when a male acts in a way that harms other(and perhaps even himself) just to seem "powerful". There is also Toxic Femininity, which I feel is overlooked at times(girls looking down upon other girls because of clothes, makeup, hobbies).

Both essentially take the olden stereotypes of a gender(women are pretty, men are stronk) and try to project their adherence to said stereotype with inherently destructive behaviour. It's bad.

i don't believe that any of these kids are inherently evil, any more than king joffrey was. their minds were warped and twisted to a point where, in this video, they all feel 100% justified in mocking and mob-menacing senior citizens, as they likely would have if they chose to tear him into pieces.

Toxic femininity is overlooked.."at times" ? Indeed? Let's explore this a bit shall we. What does this mean? It sounds like you're saying it's only some of the time it gets overlooked, when I'd argue most of the time it either gets overlooked or put under a label other than "toxic femininity".

Do you feel women would be okay with a similar commercial calling out toxic femininity? "Don't gold dig, don't fat shame other women cuz women can be catty and talk shit about each other more than men talk shit about women".

Do you feel they'd embrace such a message?

Toxic nativity? Toxic nativeness? Is that a thing?

Not sure about gold digging, tbh, but given how much body positivity matters to most current left-leaning female activists, I doubt a commercial where a b!tch gets called out for fat/****/illness shaming would be looked down upon.
I'm sure it'd recieve the same praise this commercial did. The key difference is Toxic Masculinity is more talked about because it has far more people defending it, than Toxic Femininity does.

Well why wouldn't toxic masculinity be talked about more when it's the far more abused term out of the two?

Are you sure the key difference isn't that Toxic Masculinity is more talked about because it has far more people accusing others of it?

I did, then we spent 15 minutes of corrective training. We can’t smoke soldiers anymore, so it’s now called corrective training.

As the corrective training was taking place, I was letting her know the exact reasons why she’s been punished. Didn’t want her running to PLT Sgt and claims I unfairly punished her.

There is nothing toxic about two people who want to be ****ed and fed.
