bro culture
"Bro culture" refers to a social environment often found in certain male-dominated spaces, such as workplaces, sports teams, or social groups. It typically emphasizes camaraderie, competitiveness, and a shared sense of identity among men. This culture can sometimes promote behaviors like excessive drinking, objectification of women, and a reluctance to express vulnerability.
Critics argue that bro culture can create an exclusionary atmosphere, making it difficult for women and non-binary individuals to feel included. It may also perpetuate stereotypes about masculinity, leading to toxic behaviors that can harm both individuals and the broader community.
