Thought for the Week - January 16, 2019

As an author, I try to write about men who are brave enough to step up
or grow to be men who will.

 

Some of the comments made on YouTube make me sad
and represent part of the problem--the mentality.

8 comments:

  1. Men do need to step up and do the right thing.
    I'll skip the comments. Sad that people would be negative about this.

  2. Wow, they sure have a lot of flack on there.

    Act the right way should be the way, not that a super rich company should need to tell us that lol

    1. Haha. Yeah. I've been hearing about that. I still love the message. But then I never mind having an issue brought to my attention that my help me look at things differently.

  3. Watched the video, and it's so sad that men are taking the wrong message out of this. Thanks for sharing.

  5. I generally support the negative comments on this one, not because of the message, but more because of the term 'toxic masculinity' that is used in this campaign. They should've picked a more politically correct term, this one sends a wrong message, like masculinity is generally bad. Imagine if there was toxic femininity term, the hateful feminists would be the first one to riot. I feel bad for the boys growing up today, as they are growing up filled with fear and suppression. Bad behaviour should be connected with bad upbringing and bad parents, not with masculinity or femininity. I'm a liberal, but I think that liberals are turning the world into the chaos of extremes.

    1. There is a toxic femininity term--Femi-nazi. And it exists just as toxic masculinity does. I think what this video is trying to address is the cultural acceptance of behavior that used to be blown off as no big deal. But it is a big deal.
