I don’t think this is toxic masculinity or even abnormal. Some guys don’t like pink, don’t like smelling like flowers, don’t want to wear dresses. We can accept people who have different diverse preferences without looking down on people for conforming to traditional preferences.

“Some”? I would say “most”. Why do you think that is? Just a coincidence?

  My whole point is why shouldn’t be shocked or annoyed that a guy doesn’t want to smell like daiseys and roses.
  
  There’s nothing wrong with being who you are. That means we should be supporting effeminate gay people, supporting trans people, but also supporting guys who don’t want to smell like girl scents.
  
  I do not think that gender norms or toxic masculinity is the cuprit. Some dudes really don’t like dresses and do like trucks. It’s not all just because of norms.
