    Seeing regular masculinity as toxic. Just out right judging people for not being more feminine and doing normal guy stuff.

    Like bunch of guys joking around having fun. "Oh that’s toxic masculinity.

      Yeah, I kind of agree. Toxic masculinity is a thing, but it doesn’t mean all masculinity is automatically toxic.

      Then again, usually when I’m hanging out with guys and the testosterone level runs a bit high, someone will crack a joke about it and we’ll laugh at ourselves.

      I think having a fragile ego and not being able to joke about yourself and/or your masculinity probably does make it on in the toxic list.
