[Ed. – Is this his life story?]
Guys, before you tuck into your avocado toast and soy latte, get your phone out of your man-bag and click on over to The Hollywood Reporter for a discussion of “toxic masculinity.”
Batman v. Superman and Zombieland actor Jesse Eisenburg discussed his new film The Art of Self-Defense with THR, praising the movie’s message as being a critique of said “toxic masculinity.” Just to be clear, Eisenberg wasn’t talking about critiquing aberrant issues in dysfunctional men, He meant men who were raised to be … men. What scares Eisenberg are the “dangers” of men who are “taught to be strong” in “order to succeed.”
Of course Eisenberg doesn’t look like the kind of guy who exudes “strongman” masculinity. The dude’s been typecast his entire life as the isolated, neurotic nerd.
