Men often downplay bullying in their friends circle as jokes
It has been normalized in our society for men to make fun of each other in friend groups and put each other down. You may have noticed this in your own guy’s group, where some try to impose their authority and dominance on others. This looks like them calling someone fatty, skinny, ugly, poor, baldy, or anything else of that sort. And for some weird reason, we accept that abuse as jokes from our own friends.
