Unless you're here to tell us that the way to fix this is to ignore these damaged men and their social isolation and instead waffle more about how people need to respect women, despite women being viewed far more positively than men already?

I responded to you several times about ways to help the issue. They still hate women, through and through, but their issues are valid. Men need positive reinforcement, and the chains of toxic masculinity that bind them to be a certain way or another need to be peed on because they hurt men as a whole.


It's not sufficient to talk about positive reinforcement rather than confront misandry. This is ignored because it means criticizing womens behavior too.

Calling it toxic masculinity is a means to once again shift focus onto lecturing men and demanding they change instead of actually dealing with their problems.


So we're not complaining about the phenomena, just the names we give them. Maybe it's a bad name but misandry is a broad category of behaviors and opinions while toxic masculinity is a narrower one.

What? How is it nonsense if it explains the issues you talk of aswell? The idea behind toxic masculinity is to give men the possiblity to be individuals, free of the toxicity following maleness. The idea has always been that society and culture is behind it, not men. Men are victims, same as all, of the culture that crushes us all.

I agree that the terminology isn't the same but these kind of women who force themselves and eachother to act a certain way go into the same quadrant as men who espouse toxic masculinity.


Look at the difference between these terms, think really hard about it, and if you still don't see the problem, there's no point.

There is no misandry in wanting to break down the societal norm about masculinity and the made up negatives that come with it. You can criticize women all you want, but they are not to blame for the acts of a fucking murderer.

And that is very sad. That you feel that your emotions should be muted out of how you were raised. You are a victim of the system in that way.

The terminology was developed by earlier feminists who were, by far, very as you'd put it "gynocentric" and extremely racist as well. I don't think anyone would object to you using toxic femininity to describe women enforcing social roles on each other though, fits quite well.

If you grew up in the 50's you'd be a completely different person with totally different tastes in sexuality. Most people would get by in any sexual norm situation (minus polygamy, which introduces artificial scarcity to the number of sexual partners), but different systems have different ways to deal with those who can't get by on their own.

It's not masculinity. It's the effects of misandry on men.

The reason feminists use the terminology they use is the massive section of them who cry and shit their pants when the notion of misandry is brought up, so even the ones who accept it end up using stupid terms like toxic masculinity instead of telling the truth and calling it internalized misandry because they're tied at the hip to a massive section of female supremacists who constantly toxify their discourse and terminology.

Herein lies the problem. You're assuming toxic masculinity is enforced by men on men. There is no evidence of that. In fact, the evidence suggests it's more likely to be women that enforce the norms.

I've always understood the term as being very detrimental to men and that yes, it is a terrible conduct of society. A society that victimizes men into thinking that to be a real mantm they have to be robots, emotionless. Maybe I'm a misandrist then, but I don't think I am.

Indeed it is. You needing to have a girlfriend, boys not crying, boys not showing emotions, boys being boys when they fight. This is far far older than feminism.

Sure there might be misandrists. But I highly doubt a woman who wants men to not be tied to societal norms is one. Toxic masculinty fits the properties perfectly, it toxifies what a man is supposed to be negatively.

Toxic masculinity is the idea of an unattainable "masculine" ideal that causes harm to men
Misandry is hatred of/sexism towards men
Internalized misogyny is women who hate/are sexist towards women
Toxic femininity should be used as a term more. It would mean an unattainable "feminine" ideal that causes harm towards women
Toxic masculinity/femininity is different from internalized misandry/misogyny

This is a narrative gynocentric feminism has asserted because of the prejudice of its founders, it is not based in fact, it is merely asserted dogmatically based on an anti-male framework. Study and evidence shows this isn't the case.
Men are lax about enforcing norms around other men.
Women enforce them everywhere.
When you mix the groups, men start enforcing them.

Women do ofc enforce the norms because society dictates that this is what a man is supposed to be, but it's toxic masculintiy that's causing it.


I think that what Ostro objects is that it's called ''toxic masculinity''. When in reality is just toxicity in general. We do it to men, we do it to women. You have no idea how many times my choice not to have children when I'm in my late 30s has been seen as bad and selfish by other women, and other men. My desire to focus on career and my partner only have been seen as meek and very un-feminine by other women I know. Or as mean by some men. I dare say it's the same thing men go through when they're told that ''men don't cry'', ''only girls cry'', ''man up'', etc.

Well, prostitution is legal here. So you can get an escort and pay for the girlfriend experience.

So set up a fund to help lonely men afford that :unsure:

Didn't you adopt the Nordic model in like 2014?


No idea. Also, I meant here as in Germany (where I live now) . Not even sure how it works in NL.
