A social science term that describes narrow repressive type of ideas about the male gender role, that defines masculinity as exaggerated masculine traits like being violent, unemotional, sexually aggressive, and so forth. Also suggests that men who act too emotional or maybe aren’t violent enough or don’t do all of the things that “real men” do, can get their “man card” taken away.
Many people confuse the difference between Masculinity and toxic Masculinity. However, one can be masculine without having toxic Masculinity.
Some beliefs of toxic masculinity is that:
-interactions between men and women always has to be competitive and not cooperative.
-men can never truly understand women and that men and women can never just be friends.
-That REAL men need to be strong and that showing emotion is a sign of weakness... unless it’s anger, that is considered okay.
-The idea that men can never be victims of abuse and talking about it is shameful.
-The idea that REAL men always want sex and are ready for it at any time.
-The idea that violence is the answer to everything and that REAL men solve their problems through violence.
-The idea that men could never be single parents and that men shouldn’t be very interactive in their children’s learning and development and that men should always be the dominant one in the relationship or else he’s a “Cuck.”
-The idea that any interest in a range of things that are strictly considered feminine would be an emasculation of a guy.

Guy: A Real Man doesn’t stay home and take care of his kids while his wife works. You’re a cuck.
Other guy: I don’t need your toxic Masculinity and preconceived notions of what it means to be a “real mean.”

1. A slur used by transmedicalists to call any non-dysphoric transgender person, that implies that they aren’t REAL trans people and are just identifying as trans to be “cute” or “trendy.”
Of course, non-dysphoric trans are just as legitimate as dysphoric trans people, and dysphoric trans aren’t actually “cis people pretending to be trans for attention.” Which is why this term is only a slur and not a legitimate label.
2. This term is also sometimes used for any transgender who’s gender identity falls outside of the gender binary. Some truescum, believe there are only two genders, so any transgender who identifies as any gender besides “man” and “woman” is a fake trans person.
This of course is not true either since non-binary trans identities are just as valid as binary trans identities. Which is why this term is only a slur.

Trans guy: “Hi, I’m James and I’m a trans guy. I don’t really have any physical dysphoria, so I don’t want to surgically transition, but I do plan on socially and legally transitioning and even take some hormones.”
Truescum: “You’re a transtrender! All trans people MUST hate their bodies and want to completely alter it, otherwise they’re not a REAL trans person!”
Trans guy: “Don’t be a truescum, medicalizing trans experiences is harmful to the trans community and implies that transness is literally only a mental disorder with no basis in biology or neurological science, so just stop.”

The current equivalent of a “tomboy,” (which is a more outdated way to refer to a tough girl.)
Tomboy is a term that was most used and liked by trans guys and some nonbinary people, because the label “boy” in tomboy felt very affirming, and might still be used by closeted trans people today.
However, those who actually consider themselves girls today, may find the label “tomboy” to be insinuating that they’re toughness is a boy trait, which detracts from the fact that women can be strong. So maybe prefer to switch to the term tomgirl.

It means you’re developing “chronically online syndrome” and need to go outside and get off the Internet for a while and get back in touch with reality.

Trans guy: “Hi I’m Dave, my pronouns are he/him, I don’t have any physical dysphoria so I’m not planning on getting any surgeries, however I am going to socially and legally transition and even take some Testosterone, please respect my pronouns.”
Truescum: “You’re just a tucute! A real trans person hates their body and wants to completely artificially alter it! You don’t expirence REAL oppression ergo you just want to be trans for attention.”
Trans guy: “Wow dude, being a truescum is ignorant. Medicalizing trans people is harmful to the community, since it implies transness is merely a mental disorder and has no basis in biology or neurological science. Also, non-dysphorics don’t come out as trans because they think it’s fun, but because they are being true to themselves and living as their true identity and gender. Being oppressed isn’t a competition, stop trying to make it one. Both dysphorics and non-dysphorics experience the same amount of oppression from society. In fact, non-dysphorics may experience more hate since they are usually more visible and maybe not be able to pass as well. Being trans is part of who a person IS, not a competition on who is more oppressed, stop being a drama queen.”
Truescum: “REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Tucute! Tucute! Tucute! Stop making a fool of us! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!”
