You've gone off the deep end. What you have written above is so filled with rage I would take a break from this discussion.
I accept that you truly believe what you have written above, but it doesn't help people heal to play victim olympics. And it doesn't help anyone when you dismiss their expression of the systemic injustices they face.
No to all of what you just said.
Honestly, whete I am coming from is that I think you are more aware of the injustices that you face than injustices others face. It is tricky to really empathise with the 'other' or 'out' group.
Yes, this is an example of the kind of comment that someone might interpret to mean a devaulation of the problems they experience. Not really something that is helpful to have in a post about grief at a lost child.
Ranting about your issue on a post about someone else's issue isn't cool.
If you'd like to talk about policing victim's language, or even your friend who is struggling, that is fine. This is a big platform and there's space for that.
OP has a legit issue and a legit gripe. It's a shitty thing to try to make this thread about something else.
I dont think anyone here said the main issue is women, and if they said they're in the minoriy(I hope) Patriarchy created many issues for both women and men, tho more for women This thread is talking about a serious and real issue, and you are diverting the topic
This thread is about how often men going through hard times arent helped and told to deal with it, I dont think its their fault for wanting to be helped
Yes, what you said here was true, the issue was mostly created by men. But most people here didnt blame it on women, you were the one to think that
The thread was made to help. And you came here and talked about somethimg else
By telling men with problems in life that no, therapy and help arent gay, they are ok
Fun fact: not everyone agrees about one thing.
I like how in attacking the original image's message you only support it
Please show me where this was said or implied anywhere in the image. It literally says the exact opposite of this.
As a man who is basically dead inside, probably, in the long run, due to men. I tend to use the phrase "I hate people" not because I'm avoiding the whole thing of saying I hate men or I hate women but people generally suck. All of the reasons you have listed above apply to people as a whole.
I'm not defending the opposing side of your argument because I fully understand it, women probably do face those things in large proportions due to men, but I have been told, in the grand scheme of things, probably an equal number of times to man up or grow a pair by men and women alike. When I say I'm dead inside, I don't physically know how to display any actual emotion, (anger and humour are the 2 most prominent if you count humour as an emotion) so simply by voicing something that I don't like or making a complaint is enough for people to think I'm not being manly enough.
I still have a circle of people I care about and I'm almost sure they care about me but I would still say I hate people.
So you didn't even bother reading the whole reply. You're part of the problem.
And after sharing my experiences, you wonder why I might be that way. You argue for the reasoning why some women say they hate men and as soon as someone says women aren't all angels you get defensive. Look in the mirror, the patriarchy you hate, you're part of it.
Only if you look down on women, I don't. Maybe you should have a little more respect for women.
Also, I never said I hate women, in fact, I said that I don't use that phrase because people are equal in my eyes and people cause the problems.
Ripping it from the context? This post was about how men rarely receive the support they may well need and you turn up bashing men and playing the victim card.
Where's the context?
You're clearly too oppressed that you can't even accept someone else's experiences. Have the life you deserve, you waste of resources.
And here comes the "make shit up about them to make them seem evil" play. You know nothing about me, including the generation I'm from. What a joke
you got some black friends too?
