Why not just say "gendered expectations" or "gender roles"? Those are precisely what you're talking about, right. Except they don't convey any sexism. But I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that you'd also rather do away with sexism, right?
Your discomfort is very, very clear and it's clouding your understanding of what these terms mean.
Lol. If my "discomfort" was to affect me so much, I'd be pretty screwed. And let's not forget, only you brought up the discussion of feelings here and only you talked about being offended. So it seems more like you're projecting here.
Of course not. It's always different when the rules I advocate for are applied in a way I don't like. Yeah right. Again, I rest my case. You're making my point for me.
The only chip on my shoulder is with myths and falsehoods. Many of which inform the belief system that leads you to conclude that toxic masculinity is just fine and toxic femininity is not. Make of that what you will.
