Over the past few years, the media has been filled with messages about toxic masculinity. It almost appears that being a man is toxic. We're condemned for being masculine. It makes me wonder if women are upset that they're incapable of mastering masculinity, no matter how hard they try. Therefore, they shame men for effortlessly being masculine.  That’s like condemning a tall person for being tall. 

Women feign emotional injury and use everything at their disposal to penalize men. Men are being severely punished in family courts. Women use the court system to keep fathers out of the lives of their children. In the workplace, there's a clear effort to hire women instead of men, even if the man is more qualified. 

We're also seeing an increase of physical and emotional abuse from women towards men. The Harvard Medical School found that 70% of domestic violence is started by women. There's also an increase of women raping or molesting young boys.

However, when you look deeper, you see children are suffering most from the toxicity women are imposing on society. Suicide rates amongst children have increased exponentially in the single mother household. Furthermore, of the 27 mass shooters, 26 came from single mother households.

While all of this bad behavior is happening, women are claiming it’s toxic masculinity driving them to act this way. Perhaps the reality is women’s attempt to be more masculine has backfired. Being a man has less to do with activity and more to do with the biology of a man. We're not equal.  And women attempting to do everything men do isn't in the best interest of society.
