Is toxic masculinity a real concern? Are men in our sphere more prone to dark triad type traits?
When I first heard this phrase many years ago, I laughed out loud. But the saying hasn’t gone away all these years later and sometimes I do wonder if men can be assholes. I can think of many incidents where I was a complete dick to somebody, or did something impulsive and regretted it.
After looking through a lot of the posts, and a lot of the comments in this forum, I can see and hear the entitlement and inflated ego’s of some of the members, myself included.
Toxic masculinity is just a hilarious catchphrase for calling out bad behavior so that’s why I found it funny at first, but there is some truth to it.
I think there is a difference between being an asshole and having a strong spine. There is a line between the 2 behaviors and I have crossed over to the asshole side plenty of times. But now I am much better at being the strong silent type as Tony Soprano likes to put it.
I am curious if you guys do self reflection and think about how you have treated people in the past. Do you consider yourself a good person? What even is a good person?
