For toxic masculinity, like father, like son, is only part of the story.
New research suggests a different story: A man s lack of friends may predict whether he will embrace toxic masculinity, while the presence or absence of a male role model early in life doesn t play a role.
So-called toxic or hegemonic masculinity refers to a set of beliefs and negative social behaviors that are aligned with idealized masculine norms. Sociologists first coined the term as a way to
describe a form of masculinity that directly opposes other forms of masculinity suggesting these other forms are inferior. In this conception, real men are often described in macho terms such as assertive, courageous and competitive, but they are often also misogynistic and sexually aggressive. They see themselves as dominant in society, while they relegate subordinate roles to others, like women, gay men and those identifying as nonbinary.
