To be pejorative of course, most of those are objectively actual things. It’s like when I say they’re entitled to their “opinion” I’m actually implying they don’t know asshole from elbow.
This right here. People like you that push that shit at teenage boys. This is why they are turning right. I know a lot of people who flipped parties purely cuz they can’t stand that sort of bullshit. Or that flipped because they are wick and tired of every straight white guy being called a racist. We are all pissed that our parents and grandparents fucked up the system with their apathy and blind trust in institutions that fucked us over.
Well, I’m sure you realize you’ll be taken less seriously when you take such a broadly mocking approach up front and then only temper it when asked. You sound a bit like the feminists you’re criticizing.
Why did you put quotes around toxic masculinity?
