There's a bunch of therapy types such as:
Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Psychiatry Sessions, and more
there isn't just mushy peas. He is being offered green beans, romain, fennel, all the things.
This statement is false. Incredibly false. Harmfully false.
But, society tells him little boys don't eat vegetables so he never trys Romain to find out he likes it.
Other men say that vegetables is as useful as staying at home masturbating. So he never trys Romain to find out he likes it.
Other men tell him all he will be offered is mushy green bean, so he doesn't even know Romain was an option. He doesn't try it to know he likes it.
I'm saying let's get little boys trying vegetables. Let's get vulnerable men, that would otherwise kills themselves, in therapy. Data shows it works.
Which is more conductive to little Johnny trying vegetables? Me saying we need to get little boys eating vegetables (how does he learn he likes romain without eating one, and vegetables are good for little boys (with provided link)? Or you suggesting it's as useful as a placebo (not true), and he'll only be offered mushy green beans (not true)? You want Johnny to discover Romain? Act like it.
I am curious. Which is the only therapy you believe I'm offering. Of all the therapies, which is the one? Why that one? With quotes please. I have mentioned one. But I didn't even imply it was the only one. You inferred I'm only offering one from nothing.
