  1. There's a young aspect and an old aspect of toxic femininity, just like there's a young aspect and an old aspect of toxic masculinity (the tyrant and the bandit). What we're seeing now in the Nanny State is the old aspect of toxic femininity, the Devouring Mother. What we're seeing more in the current culture, not unknown but not well recognized, is the youthful version of toxic femininity -- the Spoiled Princess. Just as the two aspects of toxic masculinity are corruptions of constructive masculininty (the wise lawgiver and the warrior) the two aspects of toxic femininity are corruptions of motherhood -- nurturing motherhood, and the nesting mother-to-be. If you were wondering why the new strain of feminism of is severely entitled (both materially and from a status point of view), obsessed with ejecting any threat from their environment, this is why. If you're wondering why this is coming up nowadays, a promising place to start looking is research that indicates pregnant women prefer emasculated men. Pile on top of this the fact that the birth control pill basically mimics pregnancy and the percentage of the female population that is on "the pill", and you've got a credible answer right there to what is going on, and why.
