I honestly don't believe that either gender is toxic. There is no toxic masculinity and there is no toxic femininity. It's just stupid to believe that. What I do believe is very real is toxic feminism. There is no need for it. It's just hatred towards all men and certain types of women. It only does harm.
Femininity in itself is not toxic, but it might be toxic in a way that is used.

I have no idea what toxic femininity even is. There are women who are toxic, but that has nothing to do with femininity.
Some gender norms can be toxic, especially historically. Like how women weren't allowed to vote. Or currently, like how men are pussies when they cry or show any emotion, and women are sluts if they hit on guys instead of waiting coyly. Or like how guys can't wear skirts, while women can wear everything.
If toxic masculinity exits than the opposite must also be true so toxic femininity also exist. For me toxic femininity is when a woman uses her woman card to get out of things.
I think there are some things that really suck about being a chick. But no, I don’t think there is such a thing as “toxic femininity”, or “toxic masculinity” for that matter.
Yes there is I have been on the receiving end of it, there has been some extreme feminists who have become complete hypocrites to me by basing my value on my gender when they hate it when that happens to them.

What kind of nutter would say Toxic Femininisty doesn't exist?
Like seriously.. Women = Perfect... lol... no.
I think toxic femininity should be added as another synonym for feminism...
Of course - all those feminazis running around calling themselves feminists...
I don't think it exists. Same way i don't think toxic masculinity exists. There's just feminininity and masculinity.
Feminism was created for equal rights. Anything beyond that has created a toxic society.
I don't think either toxic femininity or masculinity exist because I think it's pretty bad to describe innate masculine or female traits as toxic

I prefer the term toxic attitudes rather than always trying to demonize each gender's nature.
here let me show you

Traditional femininity being forced on people.

Its totally not, if anything, modernism is forced on people.
I love how these people are attacking traditional feminism so openly now.
@esotericstory Oh, really? Because that isn't my experience at all.

You just dont know what tradition is.
@esotericstory Yes, I do, actually.

Everybody likes women and femininity.
For that matter, there's no such thing as toxic-masculinity either - just a bunch of made-up tripe by the FI.
There's no toxic femininity nor masculinity, there's toxic people and those who generalize those toxic people
Toxic femininity exists as does toxic masculinity. Toxoc femininity is what feminism is.
Toxic Femininity is the exact opposite of Toxic masculinity. Saying and acting like masculinity is poison.
How is that?
@Justcallmealy Because the opposite is exactly what toxic masculinity is.
It doesn't answer my question...
@Justcallmealy Yes it does. If 1+1=2 then -1 - 1 is -2...
Doesn't mean anything in this context
Yes, If there is Toxic masculinity then there must be Toxic feminity
sexist.
