    It's incredibly dangerous to call an inherent quality in all men toxic and throwing out blanket statements and generalizations about half of the human population. Not because men haven't committed great atrocities or evil, but to shame a man for being a man is absurd. This is why so many young men have become cynical of their lives and the world when they're constantly being told that their masculinity is toxic. It's not helpful or healthy to a young man's development to tell him that he should be ashamed of his masculine qualities, something that he did not choose and cannot control.

      First off, I do hate the term Toxic Masculinity, it has been used the wrong way by i'm guessing the left side in America (I'm not american)
      and has become a frequently used term for some of the biggest idiots on the net.
      But: What it means does infact exist and it does hurt men. If you hide your feelings, and dont process emotions you are more likely to take your own life, male suicide rate beacause of this is higher than females. Also in realtionships men need to talk about feelings also, and if you have (HATE TO USE THIS TERM) Toxic masculinity, you are unable to do so, as a result the relationship is more likely to end. this is only one of reasons why this matters tough.
      The word meaning cluster of reasons why men reinforce the wrong side of their idealogy should be rebranded to something like male alienation.

    Toxic: of, pertaining to, affected with, or caused by a toxin or poison: a toxic condition. acting as or having the effect of a poison; poisonous: a toxic drug.
    Masculinity: Qualities or attributes regarded as characteristic of men or boys.
    Toxic Masculinity - Qualities of men or boys that have a poisonous effect on themselves, others and society as a whole.
    What typical qualities of men or boys are considered toxic?
    Toxic Masculinity - a derogatory term used by feminists to deride all men by referring to the behaviours of some men. I think the use of the term and the inherent assumption underlying it is itself toxic.

      Look up the Wikipedia article on toxic masculinity. It's much worse.
      It's any behavior exhibited by men that is toxic or harmful to themselves, other men, or other women, or society as a whole, or any behavior that is expected of men that the expectation is harmful to men or women or society as a whole, OR any expectation men have of other men that is harmful to me or society as a whole, OR any expectation of men by women that is harmful to men or society as a whole, OR any behavior at all exhibited any anyone that is harmful to men or society as a whole.
      Basically, toxic masculinity is a catchall term to lay the blame of anything bad happening in society at the feet of masculinity and men.
      It's a hate term targeted at men by feminists.

    The question, "What's the most 'F' up thing...", can be applied to anyone and anything. He's just begging the question and beating the answer from those that could answer in their own way and from their experiences.
