I don’t know much about this guy but I would be in total shock if the accusations are true. This just isn’t the kind of behavior you expect from someone that good at lifting weights.

I thought he actually looks kind of nerdy with his glasses. Put some suspenders on his and get him to talk in a high pitched voice and people would think he was Steve Urkel’s muscle-bound cousin.

I need to go see what this new girlfriend’s really like to make a final decision.
No. Put some suspenders on him and he’ll look like a really strong, good looking guy with suspenders on.
But this is really interesting in light of your men vs women attitudes.

What do you mean by that?
I’m not sure how to articulate what caught my attention. Maybe that the whole “toxic masculinity” thing seems to be a hot button for you, but here you are diminishing a highly masculine man.

All this talk about toxic masculinity is complete nonsense as far as I’m concerned. But a “masculine man” could still look nerdy or gay if dressed a certain way, no?
Lol posting in a forum on a site called testosterone nation and being surprised the guys are masculine 
Who is that to, @marcb84?
@chris_ottawa a jacked guy like Larry looks gay only if he behaves as a gay man, so no. Very surface. I tend to think your fear of toxic masculinity is also very surface. Some windbags complain because it brings them their fifteen minutes of fame, but does anyone really come across girls and women outside of the pandering media who actually want men castrated? I think it’s a lot of sound and fury.
So maybe I’m suggesting that YOU are part of the reason the idea of toxic masculinity is spreading. None of my female friends talk about it, and my friends are social workers!

So define what makes masculinity toxic from your perspective then.
Me? I don’t think masculinity IS toxic. What give you the impression I do?
And what defines it for you?
I only hear about it online and in the news.
Angry lesbians, bitter single mothers. Of course I don’t talk to them, but today I saw a woman with a boy, maybe 5-6 years old, wearing a headband with a bow on it. From what I have seen in articles and such, it’s mostly the above types who have or adopt a boy and decide to raise him in some bizarre manner because of their hatred for “toxic masculinity”. It’s a lunatic fringe type of thing for sure, but it exists.
It’s angry, bitter women and these social studies graduate types complaining about various things that men do.
Ok I’m sorry I got the idea you were just based on your posts.
I think toxic masculinity is a catch phrase for militant feminists to spout.

When I think toxic masculinity I picture ISIS, inner city gangs, drug cartels, mafiosos, and Louie Anderson.
The funny thing is, hardcore whatever wave feminists won’t call out a couple of those groups.
Laugh all you want, but if he hits you with his purse you’re going to the hospital.
While I think the idea of “toxic masculinity” is another political, more specifically a power play tactic used by fringe loons and opportunistic politicians, there is merit in dissecting the way society expects males to behave and questioning the merits of some of these traits. I’m talking about expectations that fuck MEN up which they pass down to the next generation, not about how they oppress women by manspreading.
In any case, this thread is about bitching and gossiping about a celebrity. There’s no masculinity to be found here anyway. You’ll probably find similar conversations in women’s sewing forums about Justin Beiber if he (ALLEGEDLY) did something like that.
