I love men and consider them whole regardless of their colour or societal standing. In the manner several other groups are loved. Not with gendered exceptions.
I'm black but don't use the N word. Or any other racial insult/epithet.
Go call other people's existence or yours toxic and stop pretending you don't know about word association and how that can cause prejudice.
These men are bad, they are assholes but people's actions aren't toxic masculinity. Men aren't to be referred to as "and"; by-products and afterthoughts. While other groups exist as wholes and are wholesome.
Toxic masculinity is 100% societal pressure on men to act in certain ways (you've seen an example from someone else in this thread[you]) and people who push claims that it's men's actions or response are the sort of people who write this:
“My snarky reaction always to that is: I never heard anyone talking about the desperate need for gender balance when women were so underrepresented,” Bigham said. “Really, it’s just when boys seem to be falling behind and suddenly it’s a thing. This whole argument that we need gender balance – there’s really very little to back it up.”

Or nod to it like lizards in full acceptance.
Real men indeed.
