Aussie mass murder

seems, happens there too. Seems guy like many had problems in his head

He was an English teacher, a language exchanger, and an escort. Bondi Westfield killer Joel Cauchi worked as a male escort | news.com.au ā€” Australiaā€™s leading news site

And I thought English teacher cum language exchanger cum escorts only existed in Taiwan.

Itā€™s becoming a worldwide trend. The dude had a very large Dragon tattoo, so I am wondering if any enterprising reporter is looking for an Asian connection!!!

This reminds me of that crazy POS on MRT 10 years ago. Really sad newsā€¦

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Monday also told ABC News ā€œthe gender breakdown is, of course, concerningā€.

Toxic masculinity is so dangerous.

Toxic anything is so dangerous. Promoting the gender hate narrative only helps the extremists justify their bullshit. Itā€™s all gross. Even evil. Respecting people and generally wanting to improve everyone, and everything, is really the only logical way forward. Embrace everyone and talk it through, rather than just ignore other peopes points and perspectives. Using one extremism against another extremism. The definition of retarded.

truly, choice usage of Latin there

He was a MAN who targeted WOMEN. It was a typical hate crime against women which is very common amongst mass murderers. Many mass murders were done by incels. Itā€™s 100% the fault of toxic masculinity and misogyny.

And thereā€™s another stabbing.

OK. I get that. Having a penis is the reason, case closed. Certainly no root problems to think about. Well, penile root obviously.

All hate crimes stem from something different other than their race, gender, physical body. Just an FYI. Every single social worker sees this on the daily. As do most teachers and other figures that constantly see loads of different people committing horrific acts. The excuse (ie. Gender claims) are the symptoms of something far deeper than people are willing to discuss. What a shame :frowning:

To be fair to gain - a sentence I hope not to find myself uttering often - I think the point might be that the values men are often raised under (for example, not talking about feelings and other such macho shit) might contribute. Not to say itā€™s the exclusive cause, but I do personally think it is a contributor.

Thatā€™s fair. But, Thatā€™s toxic. Masculinity and femininity isnā€™t toxic by proxy, thatā€™s my point. He was just a peice of shit. No need to drag down an entire group. I think we are well educated enough not to keep going down this path :slight_smile:

I think itā€™s supposed to be used as a qualifier for the undesirable behaviors expected of masculinity, ala the above. Obviously some people just see a man doing sth and use toxic masculinity to refer to men being shit, which I agree is wrong, but I think referring to certain behaviors as such is right.

For example, while Iā€™ve never been very macho, it took me personally a long time to get through certain aspects of it, especially the feelings part which I still have a degree of difficulty with. There were things I did and behaviors I had become problematic - never in a serious way, mind you - which I think a better state of mind wouldā€™ve helped with. Being willing to talk about such things with a therapist helped significantly.

While I donā€™t blame my parents on that matter, I do think societally certain expectations are harmful to men and do contribute, to a degree, to some issues men face with risk taking behaviors, school performance, and most importantly suicide success rate. Thereā€™s no magic solution to these, but working on certain expectations is a good start in my opinion.

To counterbalance this, anyone who uses it in the ā€œfuck menā€ sense is not worth listening to. Plenty of women are also somewhat implicit in encouraging macho toxic masculine behavior that is deemed desirable. Youā€™ll see girls go on about this and then shit on guys trying to be respectful or friendly for some micro aggression nonsense like holding the door. Thatā€™s not especially common, I donā€™t think, but nonetheless. Thatā€™s a good expectation of masculinity (chivalry, I suppose, but Iā€™ll just group it in).

Whatā€™s worrisome is people who are decision makers share your view. As if we eliminate toxic masculinity in some way we eliminate spree killings. A simple, single reason for an act we canā€™t comprehend.

Islamist terror attacks due one hundred percent to toxic Islam? To an extent, yeah, but there are other factors.

Itā€™s probably something people with severe mental health issues attach to. It could well have been kill another group of people.
