That you acknowledge a 'male' and 'female' brain supports my point. In general, men and women are wired differently. My argument is that we don't fix the aspects of the 'male' brain, that a vocal minority don't like, by encouraging men to behave with more of a 'female' brain.

I fundamentally disagree, and the animal Kingdom supports me entirely. It's too easy to forget we carry millions of years of evolution which informs the way our brains operate. The effect make and female hormones has on brain development and function cannot be dismissed.

A few examples would be risk-taking, competitiveness, and emotional suppression. All things beneficial in traditional (most of the last 150,000 years of human society) male roles. Society has changed greatly, but our innate traits have not.

Yucky? Don't put words in my mouth. If you'd read ANY of the clinical literature on this subject, you would know that what is often claimed to be toxic masculinity are traditionally male traits. When asked what traits aren't toxic, women list female traits. Your kneejerk reaction exposed your bias.

Don't put words in my mouth. Nothing you've said reflects well on you. You haven't the faintest idea what I know about or care about so I'll thank you to keep whatever twisted model you have of me, and other men you don't know, to yourself to avoid further embarrassment.

Your prejudices are obvious, and your problem to solve. I can say otherwise with total conviction. Myself, and my friends do not seek to dominate anyone, and we are in no way violent. That you seek to paint so many of us as thugs just shows how disconnected from reality you are.

Adult men aren't emotionally intelligent? Not decent? THAT's heinous.

As long as we stop trying to 'fix' men by making them behave more like women.
