[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people’s notion of bro culture seems to be inconsistent with its larger connotations. Bro culture is not merely the presence of guys hanging out at frats and socially drinking. It’s also a toxic, macho male culture that encourages overly competitive, and aggressive behavior (even bullying) towards women (misogynistic) and those with less wealth. Viewed from that perspective, I take issue with the inclusion of some schools here, especially Davidson. My son currently attends the school and bro culture, with its wider, negative connotations, is definitely not a mainstream campus culture. [/quote]

Please consider the possibility that the term can mean different things to different people. The connotations you have for it may be very different from others'. It's like the term "feminist." To some, it just simply means anyone who believes that there should be equality between the sexes; others envision hyper-aggressive, man-hating lesbians. [/quote] Thank you for the laugh. [/quote]
