Okay. What would you call it?
There's always going to be issues with the terms because both any termd chosen will fail to capture both the internal and external perspectives. Toxicity, for example, only shows how a certain type of manhood effects people who come in contact with it. However, a young man searching to be an adult in the world may come across this way of being a man and doesn't necessarily see it as a good fit. So it's too "rigid". I'm not sure we'd want to talk about one's "rigid manhood" but the quality is notable. We could also use the term "The Man Box" to capture the difficulty of people who struggle to meet these impossible standards.
I also like the term hyper-masculity, but there are worthwhile questions there too.
It's important that remember that no term will do a great job of capture the full range of issues facing society and men, but even a cursory investigation will show how different vantage points help show and counter balance different terms.
For white privledge, we have to remember that in this society the baseline or default is white, male, young, affluent, etc. These people don't get that suspicious look or assumption that they aren't capable or criminal or dishonest like the OP noted. We could say society has minimal friction for them.
So as to not just have some more noise, here are some of my dumb suggestions: white tailwind, white standard, white default, white baseline, presumed while white.
It's satire, but newt ate the onion. And when does, he passes it around saying, "Delicious. Want a taste?"
Neocons doing material analysis.
You don't know shit about my district or my family and you can fuck right off. You're a callous know it all and I have no time for you and your low stakes arm chair analysis.
First, fuck you.
You were not part of the discussion at to assume that we didn't discuss these issue at our table is disgusting. Second, where the fuck do you get off thinking that our district supports these programs materially and that a teacher recommendation was sufficient enough to place in the non-segregated TAG program.
I can't emphasize this enough. Fuck you
This is a highly limited context of your experience and situated when you went to school and where you went. I can only talk about the TAG program in my district and they use testing and are very strict about it.
Our child was referred by a teacher and we were encouraged to pursue it. There's more to say about the program and it's role in society, but these type of comments preclude a discussion on child needs and wealth.

Abolition of class is a nice idea, but in the meantime, what would you call patriarchy instead?
