Toxic masculinity is a term that refers to the negative aspects of exaggerated hyper-masculine traits and behaviors.

Masculinity isn't inherently toxic. But there are prevalent toxic behaviors that society treats as masculine, and so encourages men into them.

I guess I'm on the fence about it. I definitely can see the use in calling out that it's things that certain subsections of society expect of men, but it's still just "toxic behaviors" to me. Thank you for answering my question though!
