In a society in which women are fighting for their rights for equality, it is easy to miss women’s privilege and focus on that of men only. Among the many benefits that the female gender is entitled to, there is the acceptance to expressing their feelings; men doing so are not seen as living their gender roles properly. Masculinity. It carries a lot of meaning from the biological point of view; more so from the societal consideration. Masculinity is both the propeller for innovative ventures and for reckless behaviour. How far can it go? As far as people are willing to take it. It depends on the environment: there are places, especially work places, where it can become toxic. ‘Toxic Masculinity’ is the concept that defines an environment in which the high concentration of males, creates a deviated reality of society: money, drugs, heterosexual sex, party, slurs, swearing, trucks, alcohol, and other stuff of the like are seen as something to look up to. The expression of a man’s feelings is seen as something negative and undesirable. This applies even to family love, let alone a partner’s love… homosexuality? Not even mention it.
