In today’s cultural climate, even well-meaning, proactive men in dating are sometimes labeled as "toxic." From offering to pay for a date to taking the lead in planning, actions traditionally seen as chivalrous are increasingly viewed with suspicion. But is this fair? In this video, we challenge the idea that any act of masculinity, like being a gentleman, should be automatically considered toxic. We explore how cultural perceptions of men in dating have shifted and why we need to reconsider what it means to be a responsible, respectful man. Chivalry isn't toxic—it's a lost art that deserves reappraisal.
