[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you solve toxic masculinity by having men take ownership of some of the better human traits and teaching boys to have these. You solve it apparently through hardship where men don't have time to think about making women conform to their every desire and have to think about real issues. I think bad men like Hitler turn men away from toxic masculinity eventually when they can see real examples of people taxing violence to an extreme.[/quote]

My issue with this that it posits there’s some broad issue to be solved that’s inherent to men.  Thats hogwash.  There are bad people. Period.  There isn’t some pre-disposal for men to somehow have negative human traits that have to be programmed out.  Really?  It takes looking at someone like Hitler to get men to realize “Oh I shouldn’t be bad?”  It’s really not even worth engaging with such a rotten-to-the core, genuinely mentally sick point of view.    Also I’ve seen just as much women try to shape men to their “every desire”. Again, that falls into the category of “there’s bad people, period.”  These people are the exception and hardly the rule.

Just saw some headlines with trump supporters normalizing some of his addled statements about him needing Hitler's generals. :shock: 
Hitler is not scary anymore, he might be a role model soon enough. :( [/quote]
