I think "poverty" probably has a specific sociological definition which separates it from regular resource destitution.

It is quite odd how many people say evolution is a liberal hoax yet are full throated social darwinists.

Smh most of these replies are just memes

Stop telling young men and boys they are toxic in front of their peers.

oh so you're just done reading I guess then, because I already refuted that

please define toxic femininity

Traits of femininity that are toxic. Is that the best gotcha you have?

Sticking your dick in that seems fine.

Just don't pull out

I think my main complaint is that teaching young people graduate level race and gender theories without all the prerequisite understandings needed to take those courses

I think you just have a fundamental misunderstanding of what is being taught to children. We can teach the broad strokes morals and ethics without the collegiate theory. Kids can learn about Martin Luther King Jr and why racism is bad, we've been doing it for decades. Adding toxic masculinity would be more of the same "don't be an asshole" but with gender instead of race.

we’re just telling them that men are toxic rapists

We are telling young boys and men (who don’t even know what masculinity even is yet) that men are toxic.

We are not, though? The idea of toxic masculinity does not tell anyone that men are toxic, or even that masculinity in general is toxic, it's about specific behaviors.

but teaching kids about academic ideas like the patriarchy and toxic masculinity just makes them feel like they were born with sin or something for being a sexual human being.

I think this is cope tbh, people say the same thing about how teaching real history is just teaching "white guilt," but this is just low effort denialism to try and say the problem wouldn't exist if you just stop talking about it. I was a white person in school, and I never felt guilty for being a white person when I learned what America did, I felt like America did bad things.

Similarly, teaching boys that "hey, you know that behavior you might see in old movies that looks kinda cool? it turns you into an asshole if you act like that in real life" is not teaching them male guilt or self hatred.

That's not disagreeing then: "It’s not a stunt if it’s a good thing"

I disagree. Of course it’s a PR stunt

If you disagree, then why do you call it a stunt?

Are you? I haven't whined on this post, so that's a weird accusation to make. Methinks you're projecting, sorry your delicate eyes witnessed an opinion you don't like.

She's very reddit

And not thoughtful critiques. Just whining really

So just scroll past it if you don't like it?
