CMV: The term 'toxic masculinity' creates what it supposedly describes

So you agree that something exists, which is being labelled as "toxic masculinity", but that this thing has been given the wrong label?

Yeah, but not necessarily one thing. Also, social and biological aren't distinct according to neuroscience. It's all very complicated, and you can't just slap a label on it.

And you think that if we gave that thing a compassionate label (i.e. not a vindictive one) then men would be more open about their emotions?

How to make men more open is more of an engineering question. You can't expect it to work if you going off ideological assumptions.

I don't know the answers, and I don't think you do either.
