[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toxic behavior from ANY gender means the inability to control one’s emotions. Overly aggressive behavior like physical or verbal intimidation when the situation does not call for it, being a jerk because you can, entitled behavior regarding sex, attention, money, affection, manipulation of someone’s emotions, violence in the form of hitting, pushing, shoving, throwing things, damaging property etc., crying or threatening to harm oneself to get one’s way.

As you can see I don’t believe in toxic male behavior, I believe in toxic behaviors. Being strong, assertive, aggressive in certain situations like sports/business, not being a pushover, and showing mental toughness are great traits for all genders.[/quote]

With all due respect, this thread is about toxic masculinity.

Do better.[/quote] I am doing better, as someone raising both sexes I refuse to let them buy into social constructs of any type or to let the world convince them that toxicity is somehow gender based. [/quote]

No one claimed women have no issues whatsoever linked to their gender.  Go start your own thread on toxic femininity, if you actually believe that exists.

toxic masculinity.[/quote] The Op original asked how do you raise your son if you believe in toxic masculinity. I am responding as some raising both genders to see Roxy in society. Did a womam not cast one of the deciding votes to remove women’s reproductive rights? Didn’t women play a real role in helping to elect Trump? My daughter  experiencing  “mean girl” behavior in middle schools and on social media? So yes I am helping my children become educated on toxic behaviors and what they can do to recognize and curtail it. I don’t buy the  narrative that my son is more wired for bad behavior then my daughter. [/quote]
