1	I decided that I am seeking reparations as a survivor before contributing to society So, I absolutely support men (and women) choosing the path that feels right for them. I applaud you for considering your path, and for taking practical steps to achieve it. That said... You're asking for support, but your post doesn't sound like you're really seeking it. I may be entirely wrong, but it sounds like you're seeking validation for what you might feel is a "selfish" choice. Selfishness isn't inherently wrong, I don't mean it in a critical way. There are many times in most people's li…	/r/MenSupportMen	20/08/22 06:27 PM
5	was I abused? It sounds like abuse to me. There isn't a fixed criteria for what "abuse" is, but there's a lot of common themes, and there doesn't need to be rigid definition IMO. The important thing is the impacts abuse has. If you feel like that behaviour impacted you, you should seek help - from family, friends, professionals as appropriate. Don't minimise it, don't say "yeah, I panic at loud voices now, but some people have things worse than me". It's not a competition, it's a process of being the best ver…	/r/MenSupportMen	10/06/22 11:19 AM
2	Looking for insight Hey. Congratulations on starting that life long journey, good luck to you. Congratulations too on discovering that, for many of us, we can boost our own happiness when we're helping others. I'd be interested in chatting to you, but I'm in the UK at the moment so there may be a timezone challenge.	/r/MenSupportMen	27/05/22 01:00 PM
3	Empathy This is good advice. I left Twatter for exactly this reason, and it helped me. I still find myself reading potentially anti-male stuff on Reddit, but I recognize it and the effect it has and just move on with my day.	/r/MenSupportMen	25/03/22 07:26 PM
10	(TW) Misandry induced gender dysphoria, long rant (Please forgive me) It does sound like you have some very strongly held beliefs. Some I agree on, others I disagree with, but that doesn't make me right and you wrong. With all things there's nuance, and there are facts and figures to support (to varying extents) different positions. I think your struggling. I think you want to be heard, valued, and not be written off. In that struggle be careful you don't fall into the trap that (in my opinion) popular feminism has - don't write off "others/them" as a group; don't…	/r/MenSupportMen	22/02/22 10:46 AM
3	To share or not to share? I agree that it can be true, but I think it's partly situational and partly intensity. I've had some really strong support from female friends, but I've noticed that those were also relationships that had a potential romantic interest too. I personally think that men (and boys) would benefit from stronger friendship and support groups. From the outside it seems like some women have that, but it doesn't happen by chance - they put effort into it (albeit, I believe, effort that is somehow easier f…	/r/MenSupportMen	14/02/22 01:35 PM
1	Mid-week check-in Hey Unhope Mostly enjoy sci-fi, and anything with time travel soft of themes (I like the way they mess with my head - if you fancy a challenge watch Predestination and see if you can describe the plot) I am a sucker for Hollywood action films too - Die Hard, Taken, Bourne, those sorts of things. I'm old enough to remember when Bruce Willis was in big films, not the weird low budget stuff he does nowadays. What about you? What do you watch, and how do you watch it (streaming, VHS?)	/r/MenSupportMen	17/11/21 01:19 PM
3	Mid-week check-in Hey guys. My week's going good (so far), hope yours is too I love the movies, so when I want the entire world to disappear I get home, find a movie, and settle in with popcorn. Its a pretty cheap way to forget everything else for a bit.	/r/MenSupportMen	16/11/21 02:37 PM
4	Low Confidence Impacting My Relationship Hey Morti Maybe you're a bit like me - very literal, sometimes struggling to understand people by their words or actions? It makes me worry that, in any given situation, I'm misunderstanding or missing the point that everyone else is getting. What I've started to learn is that it's not the case that other people understand everyone around them better - in a lot of cases they just don't WORRY that they haven't understood, and they know the other person will clarify if there's been a misunderstand…	/r/MenSupportMen	23/10/21 10:52 AM
10	Anyone else abused by their dads at a young age still struggling into adulthood? Hey dude. I'm sorry you experienced that. I can't help you myself, but I didn't want your post to go unanswered and disappear. If you've identified some of your challenges already then you're on the road, and I think you're right in saying you need help to walk it. I hope someone comes along to offer some advice. In the meantime, just by recognising your weaknesses, you're probably a better man than your dad (in that regard at least) so be kind to yourself and know that it will take time and pat…	/r/MenSupportMen	19/10/21 11:58 AM
12	I made it out That's awesome, very pleased for you. Keep on keeping on brother	/r/MenSupportMen	29/09/21 05:22 PM
3	Asked my wide to leave Friday morning. Hey dude. I have nothing useful to add onto what's already been said, just letting you know I too heard you. Give yourself time, be kind to yourself.	/r/MenSupportMen	27/09/21 09:50 AM
2	I got a phone call from ahs I hope they will help me? I get that you're not optimistic about it, but I hope they actually do help you - or at least help you find help. There was a thread recently about online support/counselling services, maybe they can help if AHS don't? Keep kicking	/r/MenSupportMen	09/09/21 04:18 PM
1	I got a phone call from ahs I hope they will help me? Wait, what? OT, but how come they have child abuse images? How can a subreddit be THAT bad that spreading abuse pics is justified?	/r/MenSupportMen	09/09/21 04:16 PM
17	She screams: "You little son of a bitch" LMAO. So to be clear: the guy who we see sitting and getting assaulted first is the real culprit? For all we know she's been assaulting guys for years, just never been called out on it before. Just as likely as your theory. This thread (not the whole sub) is all about women not being allowed to be both the instigator of trouble AND portrayed as the victim at the same time.	/r/PussyPassDenied	02/07/19 01:10 PM
