Expressions like “boys will be boys,” “toughen up” or “be a man” are nearly universal when discussing boyhood and manhood. Now that conversations about toxic masculinity and patriarchal societies are held more widely on social media, there is a greater push for men to recognize how antiquated displays of masculinity may cause harm to others and themselves.
On Thursday’s St. Louis on the Air, Bryant Antione of The Village PATH and James Meinert of Undo Bias Consulting talked about their collaboration on the upcoming event, “UnMasc: A Men's Storytelling Event.” UnMasc will feature 10 men telling their personal stories about how masculinity shows up in their lives, relationships and healing processes.

Sorry, guess I am "Old School" but that is how NORMAL men and boys interact.
When these same people came up with the BS that we won't keep score and tell everyone they get a trophy for participation and they are all winners we screwed a whole generation up. They have not developed skills to deal with disappointment and need Cry Closets as adults. Everyone cannot be a winner at everything they try, kids NEED TO LOSE when it doesn't make any difference in their lives and the disappointment will pass in the next week. They need to learn to find the skills and abilities they have and pursue those.
Allowing this type of BS is going to screw up their children even more.
