    I mean it does because those things only make you uncomfortable because you’ve been conditioned your entire life to feel that way just because you’re a man.

    Those things are basic human companionship.

      So not only am I somehow fundamentallly broken, I’ve also been duped by society and I’m too stupid to even realize it?

      You couldn’t be any more insulting if you tried.

        Eh, I think it is more the fact that men aren’t willing to open up about shit when it is bothering them and they want to share. I don’t want to have a 30 minute share session at the start of all conversations, but it should be normalized that when a close friend asks how you are that you can say “Honestly not good because of X, Y, and Z and this is how I feel” without being made to feel like a freak.

        As a human I have to say if you don’t recognise the negative issues you suffer because of our long history of social problems and messy biology then you’re absolutely delusional - men and women.
