Screenshot of a Tumblr post by nongunktional:
when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue
to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence
Also the ableism of calling it a "skill issue" and disregarding people with depression and social anxiety.
I had trouble dating because I would have to get up and go to the bathroom every 5 minutes because I was sick from anxiety. That makes it a little hard to be "enjoyable and relaxing".
