Lost in a TikTok rabbit hole one evening, I came across of thread of videos discussing why men are not hired for certain professions and even a discussion on historical facts related to the treatment of the mummified bodies of women. Needless to say, the comments section of these videos was filled with many stories, experiences, and examples from modern times and the history of men “behaving badly.” But more so than just men’s behavior, there appeared to be a common root to all these teachings, understandings, and beliefs that contributed to these behaviors, toxic masculinity. Societal beliefs about what it means to be a man or behave manlily appear to be eroding at the morality of men. This eroding also includes how these beliefs affect everyone in this shared world and the repercussion of those behaviors being left unchecked. This open, frank discussion is meant to approach this subject from the perspective of mental health professionals who work with everyone affected by these beliefs. Toxic masculinity has left no stone unturned in the trauma it causes and the lives it affects.
