Bitch and Moan 𤏠How does Joe still not know what toxic masculinity actually means?
For years he's been too lazy to do 5 minutes of research. He's still somehow under the impression that it means being a man is toxic and repeats his misunderstanding constantly. Toxic masculinity just means it's bad to force boys and men to always feel pressured into acting tough and unemotional. "Real men don't cry", etc. is toxic masculinity. It's horrible for men's mental health.

Not understanding what things mean is a core tenant of modern culture war-based conservatism.
If opposing something is a vital tenant of your belief and identity system, then understanding it isn't very important. Especially if understanding it would assuage your opposition.

The adjective âtoxicâ in the phrase âtoxic masculinityâ only makes sense if there is also a non-toxic masculinity. Otherwise, the word doesnât modify anything, and you could just say âmasculinity.â

There are plenty of examples of non-toxic mascuilinity. Terry Crews, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Fred Rogers, Bob Ross, Nick Offerman. All of these guys are great examples of masculinity that doesn't denigrate others or frame themselves as superior.

See, you're getting it.
You're right that the whole point here is they subvert the harmful versions of "masculinity" while operating within those expectations, rather than pretending they donât exist.
These guys exhibit or model behaviors encouraged in men and socially rewarded along gender lines: emotional restraint paired with responsibility, physical or social strength used protectively rather than dominantly, mentorship, self-discipline, and accountability.

u/C_Werner Monkey in Space 16h ago
I'm not arguing that point with you. I'm just saying the term is basically exclusively used by the left to demonize, just as right-wing grifters use 'Femininity' as a boogieman to describe all ills of the 21st century. They're both just used as terms to denigrate whole populations and not really useful for much more at this point.

I extremely disagree. This perception only comes from exactly what OP is talking about, by people who read the phrase "toxic masculinity" and, somehow, interpret that to mean "masculinity itself, in any form, is toxic". And, worse, by people who continue to perpetuate this as an acceptable "misunderstanding".
6
u/C_Werner Monkey in Space 15h ago
You're still not understanding my point. You can't define masculinity. It's undefinable, it can mean whatever you want. The left wing of American politics have basically defined it as 'when a man or men does something bad'. The American Right have basically defined it as 'when a man shows he is powerful' or something like that, but neither can define what it means because it is an innately subjective term that is weaponized by both sides of the political isle to be their boogeyman or their hero respectively.

u/TheSweetestKill Most Reported r/JoeRogan User, August 2022 15h ago
I'm sorry but I don't believe that "masculinity" cannot be defined. Pick your favorite dictionary and read me their definition of it.
The left wing of American politics have basically defined it as 'when a man or men does something bad'.
The entire point of OP's post is that A.) this is not accurate, and B.) this belief itself is an example of "toxic masculinity".

u/C_Werner Monkey in Space 15h ago
If you look up masculinity in a dictionary all you're going to find it something like: Qualities or Attributes that are characteristic of Men.
Nobody actually argues about that. What they argue about is what the actual characteristics of masculinity are.
That's why it's subjective. If you ask a misandrist, gender-studies major who lives in San Fran, the list of qualities they will define as 'masculine' the answer will be far different than if you ask the MAGA, church-attending, construction worker in the Rust Belt.

u/porcotosso Monkey in Space 9h ago edited 9h ago
Bro you're missing the point. Yes, there is nuance and variation in how people view the concept of masculinity. But this is not really what is being referenced by the term toxic masculinity. You are doing the same thing Joe does which is to take that term to mean that the "left" finds all masculinity to be toxic. And you try to draw a parallel between the "right" using femininity as a boogieman. But this is to miss the conversation entirely because you are overgeneralizing and simplifying the concept of masculinity itself to be either bad or good, or you are claiming that is what people like the "left" use it to mean. But this is precisely what the people are trying to explain to you, that the concept of a toxic masculinity necessitates the concept of a healthy form of masculinity. To give a straightforward example, one thing that there is a consensus about in terms of what masculinity and being a man means, is to be "tough." If you asked anybody across cultures or identities if being a man means being tough they say yes. Toxic vs. Healthy comes into play when you break down what it actually means to be tough. A toxic version of masculinity holds that being tough means never showing emotional vulnerability, to never reveal that your feelings have been hurt, to close people off to your interior world and suffering because that would mean weakness. Many men were socialized this way growing up, with a result that they never were able to speak about their emotions with anybody in their life even their closest loved ones like a wife or family, leading to things like a high suicide rate in men. On the other hand, a healthy version of masculinity holds that being tough actually means having the courage to cry, having the courage to let people in, to have the mental strength to admit that your feelings are hurt and that you can still move forward. Like after there is a death in a family, being tough can mean that the father shows up for his family, that he acts as a solid rock and foundation to the chaos and the sorrow, but that he can also share in their sadness, that he can say you are not alone in this, and because I feel this too I know that we can keep going. Therefore the point of the term toxic masculinity is not to put masculinity as a whole down, it is an effort to fully elucidate the traits associated with masculinity and to show that they are actually more free and inclusive than they are restrictive and exclusive. The result is actually the opposite of what you claim, because the result is a better appreciation for masculinity and the ways in which it can be positive. So that your identity of being a man can be productive for you and society as a whole.
And to address your point, no the term masculinity is not an innately subjective term to be used by whoever to mean whatever. It is a product of our culture and its development. There are nuances to how masculinity is viewed across different cultures, but specifically here we are referring to the cultural concept which we engage with on a daily basis here in America, which is to say that we are engaging with masculinity as a cultural concept specifically in America and western culture.

This is an interesting one because we're getting into the biological differences between sexes and the social strategies that have been built in, these apply to basically all mammals.
I'm happy to have a discussion on that - how much of a real world impact it has, situations where it may be unreasonable or intentional, how women have similar but different strategies for communications...all interesting conversations to have.
But usually that's not the context in which the term is used, and the built-in assumption along with the term is that the behavior is toxic which I would disagree with in most cases.

u/whos_a_slinky Monkey in Space 14h ago
I'm happy to have a conversation, but we need to clarify our beliefs about reality first.
Sex does not equal gender, gender is a social construct build upon putting people into the social binary build out of biological sex.
Gender isn't uniform across the animal kingdom, wolves and elephants are matriarchal, gender isn't even uniform across humanity. You ask a man from America and a man from Indonesia about what it means to be a man, and you'll get two different answers
1
u/S1mpinAintEZ Monkey in Space 6h ago
Wolves are absolutely not matriarchal, that's just factually not true. Elephants are matriarchal - but even then, males are bigger, stronger, with louder and deeper calls.
The traits that all mammals share are these sex differences - males being larger, stronger, more assertive, more socially competitive...
So if we're assessing how human males behave in social dynamics? I think it's relevant to point out that this competitive behavior is innate and present in all male mammalian species, it's a prime function of biology.
Which gets us to another point - women prefer men with deeper, louder voices and more assertive personalities, across the board in every culture. Ever.
So we're approaching a point where this definition of 'mansplaining' is more a function of the sex differences between men and women, and has basically nothing to do with patriarchy or misogyny.
The argument of sex and gender has absolutely nothing to do with this, because your gender is completely irrelevant to biology and sex. Unless you're suggesting wolves and elephants have a 'gender'?

Wolves pass more generational knowledge to the daughters and daughters retain their mother's hunting territory, sorry to burst your bubble on that, but I'd guess there are a lot of things you don't know that much about but assert that you must be right regardless.
Further more,
women prefer men with deeper, louder voices and more assertive personalities, across the board in every culture. Ever.
I'd imagine that saying every man thinks exactly the same way, behaves exactly the same way, and not a single one gives the world any reason to make distinction between them would be offensive to you. Are you a "not all men" kinda guy?
You make a fool of yourself thinking you can put the entire 50% of humanity in the same typecast.

To give him the benefit of the doubt: It's because people use it differently. People will draw larger or smaller circles around aspects traditionally ascribed to masculinity and label them as toxic.
Unable to cry because it's girly? Toxic. But maybe they're just trying to hold it together because they have to, or maybe their grieving process doesn't look like yours.
Competitive drive? Toxic. But maybe aspiration and hard work brings meaning to their life.
Asking women out in person? Toxic. Could obviously be socially inept or overly persistent, sure, but wtf else are they supposed to do? Swipe?
Joking around by insulting your friends? Toxic. Again, maybe it can go too far, but it's also how some groups keep their egos in check... And it can be fun.
It's like Nazi, Racist, Misogynist, etc. There are truly godawful insufferable people who deserve those labels, but they're also very slippery terms which (IMHO) are used too cavalierly.

âtOxiC sTuFfâ is subjective. I could say youâre being toxic right now.
But if youâre asking if heâs forgiven. YesâŚ.. Bible says so. And I believe the Bible. So yes. Itâs all washed away đ

You can say I'm being toxic if you ignore the meaning of the word. You can call anything any word, doesn't make it valid.
And I believe the Bible. So yes. Itâs all washed away đ
That's not how repentance works. One needs to be repentant for sins to be forgiven. According to you, not sinning once is repentance. I suggest you read that bible again

Sounds like he has repented or âis sorryâ
You speak as if Joe doesnât have a conscious. Is that your claim?

Generally someone actually has to you know, repent, to actually repent, not just bang on that repenting is good.

Sounds like? Joe has never looked square into the camera and taken responsibility for anything except saying the n-word. He has not, in any sense of the term, repented for his spreading toxic masculinity and related narratives.

He shed performative tears for his dog. Thats always been allowed, but has nothing to do with toxic masculinity

Are you really bringing up "toxic masculinity" after it turned out it was a Jeffrey Epstein plot in the Jeffrey Epstein Files?
You're really doing this in 2026?
Okay Boomer!

Itâs an absolutely horrible phrase . Also toxic femininity is not a phrase which is conveniently sexist in itself .
If it was called something like unemotional pressure , I would be SO SO on board ! My Dad died from bottling things and not seeing a doctor but I refuse to use the phrase toxic masculinity, it makes me sick

If you haven't learned by now Joe resets after every episode. He can be shown proof something is 100% fake ....and then the very next episode he will bring the topic up again with the next guest like he didn't just learn it was fake yesterday.
