Not trying to be confrontational, and only using 'you' so the post makes sense

Its not that there is a majority of men who think like that its just the environment does not discourage certain behaviour. It would take alot for one person to oppose that.

Yeah I get that. It will be daunting for the first ones to start doing it. It will get easier though, as more men stand up saying basically..not in my name bro. I know that sounds corny as **** but I am sure you get what I mean there.

I am actually hopeful that change may start coming around soon

Toxic masculinity is bad for everyone tbh. Most normal men included.
