My dicks not a rapemonster either.
The problem isn't alcohol, or the presence of penis. Some folks are just nasty pieces of work. They're pieces of work sober, and they'd be pieces of work if they were castrated. They are thinking with their big heads...it's just that the damned things all mixed up.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom.

I don't understand the cave man mentality. If it's not given freely, I don't want it.
That being said, I've had no problem with being taken in the past. (emphasis on past)

I wouldn't mind such an orgy, if it was full of men.

Well, on that we agree. The title of the linked article includes the term "toxic masculinity" but that phrase never occurs in the actual article (as far as I can tell). It only talks about attitudes of hostility some men have towards women. But what connection does that attitude have to masculinity per se?

Quote:Terry Kupers defines toxic masculinity as "the constellation of socially regressive male traits that serve to foster domination, the devaluation of women, homophobia and wanton violence".[4][69] According to Kupers, toxic masculinity serves to outline aspects of hegemonic masculinity that are socially destructive, "such as misogyny, homophobia, greed, and violent domination". These traits are contrasted with more positive aspects of hegemonic masculinity such as "pride in [one's] ability to win at sports, to maintain solidarity with a friend, to succeed at work, or to provide for [one's] family".[4]
Toxic masculine norms are a feature of life for men in American prisons, where they are reflected in the behaviour of both staff and inmates. The qualities of extreme self-reliance, domination of other men through violence, and avoiding the appearance of either femininity or weakness, comprise an unspoken code among prisoners.[70][71] Suppressing vulnerable emotions is often adopted in order to successfully cope with the harsh conditions of prison life, defined by punishment, social isolation, and aggression. These factors likely play a role in suicide among male prisoners.[70][72]
Bullying of boys by their peers and domestic violence experienced by boys at home can also be expressions of toxic masculinity.[73] The often violent socialization of boys produces psychological trauma through the promotion of aggression and lack of interpersonal connection. Such trauma is often disregarded, such as in the saying "boys will be boys" with regard to bullying.[74]
