Good news, fellow men: our terrible behavior isn’t biological

  • The belief that men are biologically inclined to be more aggressive and oppressive is false.
  • Men do not need to repress a instinct to be aggressive because it doesn’t exist.
  • They are taught from an early age to repress all emotions except for anger which leads to violent outbursts.
  • Toxic masculinity upholds this repression leading to many
    men not knowing how to communicate clearly and to associate women with
    emotions they deem “inferior”.

Anecdotal proof of this: I was raised to repress all emotions except anger leading to violent outbursts and seriously struggle with identifying and communicating other emotions.

I am not a man. I am a cis woman.
