Toxic masculinity is a global phenomenon, but nowhere is it more virulent than in this hypermodern, connected society. What can other countries learn from this ‘ground zero’ of misogyny?

    Where the fuck do you live, Afghanistan?

    Nope. North America. It’s where this is most frequently seen.

    In fact, men supporting men is a lot better in Islam than it is in western culture. You can hug other men and talk about insecurities with each other far more freely there. It’s homosexuality, specifically, that they have an issue with.

      Maybe you should move to Afghanistan? Your community sounds fucked beyond belief. And I can assure it isn’t the norm in most parts of the world.

        I’m not responsible for the anti-male gender bigotries that others hold.

        As an egalitarianist I’ll call it out when I have the opportunity to do so, but I’m staying right where I am, thanks.
