Reducing human behavior to a single hormone is a choice that is not very representative of reality.

Photography can be art as well as AI generated images can be art as well. AI is a tool and people can create art with it. But also what is art is completely subjective to the viewer.

You have examples?

Sure, I even do photography professionally form time to time - I just don't consider it to be a painting.

What do you mean by negative spin? You don't think that for example extreme competitiveness can be negative - or what is the point you are trying to make.

With this logic photography is a painting, painted at an impossible high speed - but for some reasons we make a difference between something humans make and machines make.

We have mostly the same chemicals just different concentrations. Also humans in general show wide variability of behavior, it helps to get out there to realize we are all very similar and different at the same time and there is almost no benefit in thinking in gigantic buckets that encompass half of us.

And what exactly out of those things is considered to be toxic in general or is it more that the extreme forms of those things are considered to be toxic?

Genuine question. What is standard male behavior?

So you think it will help to just tell folks to not be afraid? How did you overcame your fear? What if similar experiences happened to your and your friends more than once?

On personal level, in my experience it's best to validate someones emotions and then help them work through them if they wish so and are ready. On societal level it's another question on how to teach people more empathy and to respect for others - and at least in my opinion we already came quite a way.
