whatever you are trying to say there.. try this.

what is the difference between toxic masculinity and masculinity?
why is the APA now warning against masculinity as being harmful?

Now for context:

[FONT=&quot]The new “Guidelines for the Psychological Practice with Boys and Men,” marks the first-ever report published by the association aimed at helping practitioners care for their male patients “despite social forces that can harm mental health.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Citing more than 40 years of research, the APA warns against the “masculinity ideology,” which it defines as “a particular constellation of standards that have held sway over large segments of the population, including: anti-femininity, achievement, eschewal of the appearance of weakness, and adventure risk and violence.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]“Traditional masculinity ideology has been shown to limit males’ psychological development, constrain their behavior, result in gender role strain and gender role conflict and negatively influence mental health and physical health,” according to the 36-page report, featured in January’s issue of Monitor on Psychology.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Conforming to the norms of the “masculinity ideology” can result in suppressing emotions and masking distress in young boys as well more risk-taking and aggressive behavior and a lack of willingness to seek out help.The report additionally contends this can lead to traits like homophobia and pave the way for sexual harassment, bullying and violence against others and themselves.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The APA also invoked a series of sobering statistics to emphasize that “traditional masculinity — marked by stoicism, competitiveness, dominance and aggression — is, on the whole, harmful.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]For example, despite being four times more likely to die of suicide than women, men are significantly less likely to be diagnosed with internalizing disorders because they don’t “conform to traditional stereotypes about men’s emotionality.” Men in the United States also commit an estimated 90 percent more homicides than women and are also much more likely to be arrested for domestic violence.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Despite its warnings, the APA also encouraged men to embrace the positive aspects of traditional masculinity, like leadership and courage.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]“Though men benefit from patriarchy, they are also impinged upon by patriarchy,” says Ronald F. Levant, a professor emeritus of psychology at the University of Akron and co-editor of the APA volume “The Psychology of Men and Masculinities.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]“Guidelines for the Psychological Practice with Boys and Men” additionally calls on those treating male patient to recognize their own bias and urges them to address how “power privilege and sexism work, both by conferring benefits to men and by trapping them in their narrow roles.”

Clearly some men require moral guidance from wherever it will make the most impact. If your shaving gel has a message telling you not to rape and you listen to it then good for you. I'm sure all your potential victims thank you.

This is just incredibly weak and stupid. This ad basically says, “Don’t be a jerk. Don’t raise a jerk. Call out other men being for jerks.”

Wrong; it is basically saying being a white man is bad and that men should be more like women. It's painfully stupid considering the business that company is in.

a lot of women in this thread try to ovary act and womensplain things to us.

imagine if there was a commercial with a bunch of cackling chicks watching the view being mindless drones. Or imagine if this wasn't directed to men but black men in particular. Would all of a sudden it take on a different tone? I bet most would think it would.

This is an anti male commercial. It implies a collective guilt and original sin that all men are guilty of, even if they have never done anything wrong. It's also ridiculous "men need to stop other men" or whatever they are saying here. If you want to be a strong powerful women, try not getting the 1000 yard stare when the guy touches your shoulder like what happens at 30 seconds LOL. How could any women think they will ever have respect from men if they can't stand up for themselves and demand other men do it for them? That's not how you get respect from men.

The whole commercial is fucking retarded produced by woke marxist HR new yorkers living in their progressive bubble. The fact that you dummies in this thread buy hook line and sinking a razor company raping the #metoo moment for profit gain and you dont have a shred of cynicism about that tells me all I need to know about your intelligence.

There is an anti-male anti-masculinity social programming going on, mainly by women because they know they cannot compete with men on any significant level so the male population instead needs to be feminized and cucked.

p.s. I was one of the first 5k to dislike this video.

Nah. It's not anti-male in the least.

It's anti-coward, so I can see how you'd despise it and be psychologically compelled to lie about it, but it's simply not anti-male, has nothing to do with 'Marxists' and implies nothing about collective guilt. It's about responsibility, something that lifelong handout addicts like you aren't likely to understand.

It's sad that it made you so triggered. Perhaps if you could get your doctor to prescribe some testicles for you, you'd be less frightened of reality.

Go back to school, it’s never too late!
 
if men are so bad, why is it with single women that men end up the most fucked up?

I have information which I can’t share that makes this hilarious. I’m laughing at you, again, Cornelius.
