If they used the day to break some of the horrible toxic male stuff and look at tackling male suicide rates, etc. then it’d be great.

But I don’t think it is that.

going by workplace stuff it’s kind of been repurposed as an awareness day for men’s health and stuff which i guess is good

edit: as @sadpunk said

Good to be more aware of men’s mental health for sure! Including the damaging effects of the patriarchy on MMH and the part that masculinity, toxic and otherwise, plays in men’s lives.
