How about when someone says women’s place is in the kitchen? Do you also get Big Mad?

See also: internet men any time someone uses the phrase “toxic masculinity.” I don’t think I’ve seen it come up a single time without dudes getting Big Mad (and ironically listing a bunch of shit that shows how terrible toxic masculinity is for men with zero self awareness)

An interesting point, to some extent I think that response can be strongly correlated to generational lines. Those of us born not of this century can be a bit curmudgeonly and take it as an attack on the self rather than seeing it for the impact on society.
The phrase 'man up' has a different connotation when it was instilled from a young age to mean 'be strong' rather than being seen as an isolationist closed off mindset.
It takes time, even for those willing to learn.

I had never seen this happen, but my experience might be just different from yours.

If you doubt it, can you provide any link to this happening on social media? If you are that sure about it, it should be easy for you.
