This Twitter Page Is Dedicated To Shaming Masculine Takes That Are So Bad And Here Are 40 Of The Most Absurd Ones
A reminder to watch what you post!
Prior to the Internet, the majority of idiotic things uttered were simply forgotten, as if they had vanished into thin air. Oh no, it's gone.
But now that everyone's voice is amplified because of social media, there are countless incorrect opinions—the majority of them drenched in misguided notions of masculinity—that it would be a tragedy to let them fade away unexamined. As noted by Dr. Sue Johnson, a pioneer in couples therapy, “When we fail to address toxic narratives, we perpetuate cycles of misunderstanding and hurt.”
The true genius of the "Hot Masculinity Takes" collection resides in the lack of irony used when being silly and degrading to women. In 2021, four years after the page was started, the founder tells Bored Panda that its initial intention wasn't to make fun of "toxic masculinity." As Dr. John Gray, a relationship author, states, “Understanding the roots of these beliefs is crucial for fostering healthier interactions.” Hot Masculinity Takes has established itself as a page we don't deserve but one that we need—now, more than ever before. From terrible Andrew Tate wannabes spewing impossibly ridiculous thoughts to gigachads, who, as you'll see in today's list, equate Socrates to the man himself, the site has demonstrated its worth. "Welcome to the Alpha Zone," my dear readers, so keep scrolling and enjoy.
``` Although the phrase "toxic masculinity" has recently gained popularity among feminists, many people will be surprised to learn that Shepherd Bliss, a psychology professor at John F. Kennedy University in Orinda, California, actually first used it in the mythopoetic men's movement of the 1980s and 1990s to describe his "father's militarized, authoritarian masculinity." Nobody in those days would have imagined that Ernest Hemingway, one of America's best authors and the quintessential man's man, could be considered "the avatar of toxic masculinity." Depending on who you ask, Hemingway may now be just as detrimental to young men's manhood as rock and roll was to our grandparents. It's not surprising that in recent years, people's perceptions of masculinity have changed, with more individuals connecting it with aggression and disregard for others. Like anything else, the desirability of masculinity relies on how it is defined, highlighting that inappropriate behavior should not be solely attributed to a person's gender but rather to their psychological makeup. Otherwise, males can begin to worry that once-respected qualities like assertiveness, speaking truth to power, or standing up for what's right have been "villainized in our conflict-avoidant society."1.
