He's saying it's male behavior while also saying it's not observed in most men, which makes it a direct contradiction
It's not, it IS a male behavior, which is not observed in most male. There is nothing complicated with that sentence. Read it again. In short, this is a behavior depicted by mostly men but not all the men. Simple.
How is it male behavior when it's not even predominantly observed in most men?
Because, again, it is observed in male in the majority, if not almost entierely.
It's hardly appropriate that we're associating it with general male behavior—which is what masculinity is if you don't know the definition—and using it as a weapon to demonize the male gender as a whole.
If you think we are demonizing male gender you completely missed the point. We are targetting TOXIC BEHAVIORS. Not the men or the male gender. You are completely out of context here.
You didn't understand the video at all... Which is sad really because it's quite brilliant.
What you call toxic masculinity is just toxic behavior
No. It's toxic behavior based on a toxic point of view of masculinity and toxic behavior observed with the male-gender. Again, you missed the point because you are taking the video as an attack instead of listening to the critic.
Questioning your beliefs doesn't make my arguments a rant
You are attacking the argumentation based on a missinterpretation, I take that as a rant. Sorry.
If you get offended just because someone questioned your belief system, then there is something wrong with what you stand up for.
I'm not, what I find problematic, is that instead of looking at the actual content, you generalize said content as an attack against male gender. Which is a common critic thrown to feminists who want to question masculinities. This is a complete missunderstanding - yet logical - interpretation of the content.
Indeed.. the first instinct when we see one of our (or relative) behavior in the context of a critic of said behavior, is to take offense that our identity is being attacked as a whole.
That is completely missing the point of this video which yet clearly states that what is concerning toxic masculinity is not the men, but the toxic behavior SOME of those men depict.
