You can just vent if you want, but here’s more context: We're playing a DnD oneshot soon, and the theme is toxic masculinity (particularly in a gym). We’re all playing dudes who visited the gym for a long time already. I already have some ideas for my character, but I want to collect some more stories of toxic masculinity, as I’m quite lucky that my bubble doesn’t have much of it.

Mostly it's just in the form of a vast majority of male co-workers I've had being misogynistic and homophobic. Ridiculing other men for showing any emotion other than anger. Pushing people to do things they know the other isn't comfortable with doing, by calling them gay (in less pleasant words) or a pussy. Telling racist jokes and/or using slurs. Believing physical strength is the best and only measure of masculinity. That kind of bullshit.
