Then I apologize for my assumptions and redact my harsh words.

Did the mention of juggalos give it away? You're such a super brilliant detective aren't you? Here's a golden star!

Cheers.
A simple google search would show you "toxic masculinity" and "man" are not interchangeable. Ideas such that men must always want sex, that you're not a real man if you haven't been in a fight, that men can't enjoy art or love or "softer" things without being a homosexual, etc. This what we mean.

Are there idiots who extrapolate those characteristics as being inherent to men? Yes. ARE THEY IDIOTS? ALSO YES.

The article I posted was arguing against the social convention that touch from and among men must inherently sexualized. The world would be better for everyone if platonic touch for men became a social norm. You should be in favor of this. I'd step away from the Stephen Molyneaux videos for a bit and examine the rational, non-hysterical social and gender arguments out there. At the very least, you'd stop with the kneejerk reactions to terms that you a) don't understand and b) actually support your broader aims.

Lucem and Frownland nailed it, thanks dudes.

edit: always loved Lucem's sig. Delightfully dark.

In regards to the topic - because we got our rights, just like how white people in America already got theirs. Saying "we demand more rights" is basically saying you miss being as oppressive as you were 70, 80, 90 years ago when women and colored people were even bigger minorities and even had separate rights. In less spoken terms, women and minorities still do have separate rights, so that's why. In a nutshell, it's ludicrous.

Not it isn't.. wow. You sound like the people that argue people in America have no right to complain because people in Africa are worse off.
