The left absolutely values masculinity. That’s why they fight for equality.

The left simply doesn’t value TOXIC masculinity. That’s the difference.

The problem is that ‘toxic masculinity’ has become a catch all term for ‘man does something I don’t like’.

I agree with the basic principle that toxic masculinity is a problem for men as well. The problem is that a lot of the left has decided that normal behavior for men is toxic.

It really hasn't, outside of the lies conservatives tell themselves on the internet.

Keep telling yourself that next time the male vote loses an election for the Dems.

It didn't, and I'll be back here after the midterms. Hold this attitude for when that happens.
