Toxic Masculinity Does Not Exist.

Now you see it...

Now you don't. 

That's how you make "Toxic Masculinity"...disappear.   :) 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Toxic Masculinity? What even in the living fucking hell is that? I mean, the term would be subjective and arbitrary. Applicable to some, from one person, or someone, but not to or from others. What one might view as "toxic" another views as sexy, or hot, or caring, protective, a good provider, a good father, husband, brother, nephew, cousin, neighbor, employee, employer, friend or whatever other title you might give him. 

Some people are toxic, or have toxic personalities. People, meaning both men and women. There are just as many toxic women as there are men, perhaps more. But ascribing any characteristic you don't like or agree with to a man or men in general as "toxic" just makes you...a dumbass. Seriously, that sort of sweeping generalization makes the accuser toxic, not those accused. 

I'm tired of the media, social media, blogs, podcasts etc... always talking about "Toxic Masculinity". That masculinity, is what built...your home, office, car, roads and freeways, bridges, dams, sewers, airplanes, railroads, grew your food, agriculture, butchered your meat. There is historically very little that was not built with sweat, brute force, strength, power, manhandling, masculine energy. Sure, in modern times there are more tech things, more robots, automation, things that build stuff, but that is new. For decades prior, centuries, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, it took men to build...the cities and towns we live in. 

Whalers, seamen, tribesmen, indigenous people, farmers, ranchers, hunters, explorers, miners, cowboys, warriors, from anywhere and everywhere, regardless of race, color, creed, origin, that masculine energy and power, that drive and motivation, determination, that's what built the societies we all enjoy comfortably today. 

I get it. The "world" is built, in most places pretty safe, so some women get a degree, start an OnlyFans, make a few bucks, and bitch constantly about men. But the thing is "SweetyPieGumDrop", that highrise condo you live in, built by men. That car you drive, built by men. The road you drive on, built by men. The Starbucks, men. The elevator you ride up/down, men. Your food, most or much of your clothes, cell or computer, medicine, vacation getaway, the plane you took to get there, the products and merchandise that crosses the oceans that is protected from Pirates and thieves...men. 

So, to end this little rant, a synopsis of sorts, to finalize it, to conclude my thoughts, to wrap up my point, to finish it, to bring to a close my rambling diatribe...men.  :)
