"Toxic masculinity" isnt a real thing. You've just bought into the leftist psyop.
Some men, like some women do bad shit.
Why is there no such term as "toxic femininity"?
What is it when a postpartum depressed woman like Andrea Yates drowns her own 5 children in a bathtub? What about Jodi Arias murdering her boyfriend for dumping her?
What about Asia Argento having sex with an underage boy?
These are just a few examples of the thousands upon thousands of anti-social behaviors committed by women that are analogous to those committed by men but the term "toxic femininity" doesn't exist.
Why not?.... Wouldn't that only be fair and accurate?
Because there is no war on women
The term "toxic masculinity" is an instrument of weaponized language. With it the progressive left / commies / SJW's, etc. can take any and all anti-social acts committed by any person who happens to be a man and denigrate all men by attributing the act to their maleness rather than the individual's pathology who committed it.
Stop spewing nonsense here.
Either wake up or fuck off.
And weaponized language in many cases is a perfect example of something magicians have been doing for years. It is called 'magician's choice,' or, more technically, Equivocation.
Wikipedia Entry on Equivocation
Quote:Quote:
Equivocation (or the magician's choice) is a verbal technique by which a magician gives an audience member an apparently free choice, but frames the next stage of the trick in such a way that each choice has the same end result.[1] For example, the performer may deal two cards to the table and ask a spectator to select one: if the spectator chooses the card on the left, the performer will say something like "you keep this card, I'll take the remaining card". If the spectator chooses the card on the right, the performer will take that card. Thus, the choice of which card to use is really made by the magician.
SJWs are only pretending to have a free and open debate, but just like the magician, they always arrive at the same conclusion: BadMen.
Even using the term 'toxic masculinity' means you have surrendered the debate to them, and all that is left is determining exactly where it is raising its ugly head now.
Man kills wife? Toxic Masculinity.
Wife Kills man? Battered Wife Syndrome. Still Toxic Masculinity.
That is why framing is so important and choosing what terms you are willing to use is so important.
Which is just the long version of saying I agree with Pap the Tapper.
