Yeah, I can see why people would be resistant to labeling those things as toxic.
Honestly, I think a lot of it has to depend on context. IMO, aggressiveness is pretty much always toxic (unless done in self defense), but rough play and rough housing are great (and needed for children). And I think a desire to protect and provide for a family is incredibly positive, though if such behavior is done as a means to insulate or belittle women, then it would be toxic. So I really think it may just depend on context. But yes, I agree, the things you listed are not inherently toxic or wrong.
