[quote=Anonymous][url][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually it is used by moms with the super energetic rough and tumble type boys who get dirty a lot and play sports a lot. They assume everyone is like them. We are not like them. My son is socially anxious, quiet, timid, and non-athletic. So are lots of boys. To me, "boymom" is the mom equivalent of toxic masculinity. [/quote] So, super energetic rough and tumble boys who like sports are engaging in toxic masculinity?[/quote] Of course some are. - Locker room talk - trash talk - hazing - cultural history of “jocks” bullying non-athletic kids I can list many more toxic things that stem from the culture of male athletics. [/quote] Weird. I feel like my boys are avoiding bullies because they are boys. Listening to my friends who have girls can be harrowing! The bullying between girls sounds crazy and painful.[/quote]
