dude people here just want to dunk on men because it makes them feel good about themselves. it's that sad, and that simple. they don't care about having empathy for men, men are not 'people'. they are 'others'.
they don't really give a shit about... the issue at hand or the issues in the therapy industry/society that systematically disenfranchise many men.
unironically they want men to 'man up' and 'fix' the problems and never acknowledge them. Because that is inconvenient for them and their viewpoints.
because to them everything is a weird power struggle for their particular disenfranchised group, and they see anyone else acknowledging anything else struggles as a detriment to their cause. they lack the big brain thought that maybe lots of people suffer in lots of different ways and that it's not some zero-sum game about 'who suffers the most'.
as if men's issue with the mental health care system... don't also apply to to various other groups. of which any one person can belong to multiples of those groups.
Who is "they" because the "they" is other men.
So why are we like mad at women in the comments it's nonsense. Why disparage healthcare and therapy it's nonsense.
The issue at hand is one demographic struggles to extend empathy and therefore doesn't get it in return. Make the first step, be empathetic in your life and I swear if you respond saying you are I'm gonna laugh because no, reading your responses you're not, you're very "you" focused.
There's no power struggle, and any you sense is disenfranchised groups trying to get power back from, guess who?
