This is NOT a question re transgender folk, nor is it a "gotcha" question. I've been thinking about the idea of being a man and masculinity and want people's thoughts...

What makes a person a man? What traits are male?

I hear about allegedly toxic masculinity all the time, what is non toxic masculinity? Don't get me started on toxic masculinity!

the whole toxic masculinity bit is ridiculous.

people want us to be emotionally stundet and strong and protective but when we do so, we are brutes and toxic and whatever the fuck.

but what makes a man a man ... perspective i guess.

my idea of a man is very different from what others think of a man.
