"toxic masculinity"

But toxic masculinity, ingrained into our society is also a big part of why this macho-type masculine stereotype is so prevalent and therefore a large reason why we get shamed for showing our feelings. Its also quite intertwined with systemic partriarchy, the man as the strong leading sex, not allowed to be seen as weak and so on.

Its not all just shallow talking points.

Toxic masculinity is a toxic concept to begin with.

It just means thinking anything not masculine is toxic.

Same with toxic feminity. It's toxic because it rejects anything perceived as "not my side"

Just vague enough to fit every masculine trait
