| 2 | My mother was so meanIt's awesome that you're still here writing these lines man! You're fighting despite the shitty cards you've been dealt. That's very impressive. Therapy can be tricky and it can be hard to find the right therapist with the right approach. I understand your choice of not wanting to go back. Whatever you do, I hope you'll find paths towards at least a bit more peace. Surround yourself with good people, that's very important. | /r/MenSupportMen | 18/02/23 07:18 PM |
| 2 | My mother was so meanBut I luckily got over that, mostly. That's good! So you were basically a way for her to vent. That's rough and 100% unacceptable. I hope you know this isn't your fault. When we are kids and our parents feel bad, we tend to automatically think we're the reason. As we grow, we eventually become more self-aware but this shit can stick with you. I hope you're able to differentiate between her demons and your feelings. I was thinking today how much we accept parents being mean towards their kids, ye… | /r/MenSupportMen | 18/02/23 06:46 PM |
| 4 | My mother was so meanMy mom said similar things. I've heard about men being rapists and that we should cut their dick at a very young age. Her dad was indeed violent and possibly a rapist. But that's a not good way to grow up as a boy, hearing those things. Maybe some mothers think that's how you prevent boys from becoming bad men but I think it does more harm than good. I think it's more about your mom and her life experience than you. It makes sense that you're overly cautious about this subject. Your mom shouldn'… | /r/MenSupportMen | 18/02/23 06:23 PM |

| 16 | My boyfriend was raped as a kidI really want him to be able to talk to me about this because it seems like he's never really spoken about this with anyone. I don't think it's necessarily healthy for him to talk to you about all of this if he doesn't feel comfortable doing so. He told you quite a lot already, which is good and a very good sign your relationship is on the right track, him telling you more doesn't mean he'll feel better. If he needs healing, he should do it with a therapist. Don't pressure him and don't make him… | /r/MenSupportMen | 03/09/22 09:25 AM |

| 9 | "Educate your son."There was this post on the front page today that addresses a similar idea in regard to when people ask atheists where their moral compass is. The idea that men are beasts that need to be tamed is disgusting. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/02/22 06:43 PM |
| 4 | "Educate your son."I think a huge number of feminists women have been traumatized by one or multiple bad experiences with men (or what they believe was caused by men) and they haven't healed yet. They seem stuck in the stage where facing the complexity of reality is too painful, when your wound is still fresh it feels better to take refuge in black and white thinking and other cognitive dissonances that simplify a very painful and confusing reality.

| 2 | Mention men, and you're instantly dismissedVery true. I understand the desire OP had to clarify things but most "discussions" about gender issues are purely emotional. If you come to an emotional discussion with rationality, there'll be tension and it won't end well. Gender issues are highly emotional, it touches on very dark stuff that are dear to people's heart, it's really hard to have a calm discussion. And, like you said, the outrage is often here by design. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/01/22 09:22 AM |
| 21 | Wouldn’t addressing men’s issues have a profound impact and lessen the violence (both physical and sexual) that they perpetrate?Definitely. I'm a big believer in the notion that hurt people hurt people and that education helps a lot. I believe that most guys who harass, rape, attack others are often traumatized to some extent or have not grown into a good environment, the role models you have around you are incredibly important. Unfortunately we are in great need of good male role models. Men used to have mentors, we don't anymore. Men used to have more friends too.

| 8 | What are your thoughts on Daniel Sloss’s statement in his stand-up?Over their lifetime, 79 percent of men who were “made to penetrate” someone else (a form of rape, in the view of most researchers) reported female perpetrators. Maybe I don't get it but that doesn't mean 80% of all rapes on men are by women. “made to penetrate” is a subset of all rapes isn't it? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/01/22 10:02 AM |

| 11 | Male suicide is NOT caused by toxic masculinity! (With Studies)Yes the more I think about that concept the less I believe it can be fixed and it's by design, when can we honestly say patriarchy is over? As long as men exist, someone could argue that patriarchy is alive and well right? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 31/12/21 02:26 PM |
| 44 | Male suicide is NOT caused by toxic masculinity! (With Studies)Thank you! Those are pretty straightforward facts. I wonder what a proponent of toxic masculinity would argue against those. I guess they would redirect the discourse towards patriarchy basically saying "yeah sure men might seek help and not find it but if they built a better society they would feel better, so, in the end it's still their fault since it's their system that's in place". | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 31/12/21 01:14 PM |

| 5 | Dehumanisation of men are trash/treating ppl differently because they’re maleI think their logic is that it's not all men that rape and kill and harass but all men have it in them. Some might have their animality more under control that's all. So in a way it is all men. Also, men are part of a club whether men admit it or not there is always a club that will help them. So again, all men are in the same group according to feminists, individual differences don't matter since men participate in one way or another to sexism. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/12/21 02:10 PM |

I don't represent all men of course but I believe that when you live in proximity with someone different it humanizes them and you see a different perspective. Tribalism is a terrible thing.

| 22 | Do you think men’s tendency to hide their negative emotions and struggles in life(to not bother other people) adds to the perception that men have no problems in life?i used the word society recently on Reddit when talking about how society sees men as replaceable. Someone corrected me and wrote : "society men". They always find a way to make men the only possible origin for men suffering as if women/trans/non binary... aren't part of society and can't be sexist too or part of the problem. We're all connected for better and for worse, why is it so hard to believe? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/12/21 06:46 PM |
| 3 | Is anyone else getting kind of tired of “men can cry too”?That's what we call a high maintenance girl and that's what I was referring to when I talked about immature women. This is not acceptable behavior and I agree with you that it's hypocritical. I think we shouldn't encourage this attitude and focus on more mature women. The issue I fear is: these women are part of feminism, probably part of the most vocal ones because of how entitled like kids they are, so they clearly have an influence on the zeitgeist and that's problematic. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/11/21 07:04 PM |

| 9 | Is anyone else getting kind of tired of “men can cry too”?I think they want someone strong and stable but emotionally open since vulnerability is essential to connection. Not every cry is emasculating but they can often be. It's not all or nothing. But it also requires the woman to be strong and emotionally stable herself, otherwise she won't understand those subtleties and see every cry as weak. Also everyone's different, and being aware of who you're attracted to is important. Some women like the Byronic hero, the sensitive poet, others like the stro… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/11/21 02:25 PM |
| 15 | Is anyone else getting kind of tired of “men can cry too”?Thank you! I'm quite fascinated by this particular topic being a man that cries easily. I agree with your analysis. Words are just words, people need to understand what they imply and just saying something doesn't make it real. Actions speak louder than words and social issues are, for a big part, more demonstration than action.

Or do you want to feel better yourself? A family therapist is really for those who want to improve their relationships but you don't have to improve anything if you don't want to. Sometimes you have to cut ties or reduce your interactions with toxic people, even if they are family.

I've said it in another comment but I think many women don't learn how to do that because they think they already know how to do it when they actually don't.

It's funny because few people will use the term internalized patriarchy I guess because it breaks the idea that men are the cause of all suffering if a woman is doing it.

| 19 | Is the reason for the tabooness of single men simply due to them not filling the provider role?Because in a society where productivity is the only widely accepted reason to exist, those people are seen as the epitome of marginality. And everything that derives from the norm needs to be identified because naming something is the first step to controlling it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/08/21 03:38 PM |
| 8 | Why can people literally not handle the idea of the empathy gap towards men?Because it's simpler to see things in black and white - "an oppressor cannot suffer" - and because when someone says "I suffer too" many people think it removes the attention from their own problem. Personally I think we should be humanists and treat everyone's problem equally especially because everything is interconnected. Hurt people hurt people and men who don't feel seen or listened to will end up causing harm to others, it can be a vicious circle. I think there's a time and place to talk a… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/08/21 09:22 AM |
| 4 | Women don't feel safe going outside... but I don't either?I understand your frustration. It's an ignorant stance because if you just observe the world, live in it a bit, have empathy and listen to each other you quickly see that it's not the whole truth. That's the danger of ideology, you can trap yourself into a simplified view of the world. She's not wrong per se but she chooses to ignore an entire part of reality. Maybe she thinks if she admits the fact that men can be afraid too it removes the legitimacy of her experience when in fact it doesn't. I… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/08/21 09:53 AM |
| 2 | I'm allergic to some foods so i won't eatIt's become a bit more difficult to do that now because when you follow someone whose content you like, you then see much more of their interactions : you see tweets they liked and replies they wrote. So basically when you follow someone, you also follow who they are following and so on. For instance, I often follow artists because I like what they do and then I see all their political discussions and all the porn tweets they liked. Controlling what you see on your timeline has become a chore, y… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 04/05/21 08:26 AM |

| 1 | Is it me or is there a disconnect between what men think women want and what they actually want?Oh yeah, it's one of the hardest thing to do. You have to be careful. That's why so many people don't do it ha ha! And then we're all stuck, doing the same mistakes over and over. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/02/19 09:44 PM |
| 1 | Is it me or is there a disconnect between what men think women want and what they actually want?It's very confusing and zen-ish but my perspective on this matter changes all the time. Kinda contradicts your point, don't you think? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/02/19 08:55 PM |
| 1 | Is it me or is there a disconnect between what men think women want and what they actually want?Why do you say that? I don't understand. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/02/19 08:11 AM |
| 2 | Is it me or is there a disconnect between what men think women want and what they actually want?That's because evolutionary psychology is not the answer to every relationship question. Game theory is not either. TRP thinks biological determinism is the absolute truth. Do you really think, somehow, after thousands of years, we've found the truth and answer to how people live together? Also women are as confused as men. We're all lost.. But sometimes, a man and woman will find that their convictions about what makes a good partner will align. If it's overconfidence on their part, it won't wo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/19 12:49 PM |

| 1 | Confidence only works for attractive men.OP's statement is about attractiveness. You're basically saying "You can't fake attractiveness, women will think you're fake" right? But confidence is not about attarctiveness when you're bad looking... It's about all you said previously. So if the guy does have things to be confident about. Why would the woman say "where did he get the idea he could get away with that?" ? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/19 06:33 PM |

| 7 | Confidence only works for attractive men.It might be anecdotal but my sister is very pretty, she's fun and could get a man easily. Her current boyfirend is overweight, a geek, not so good looking but he's a confident extrovert and I know thios what she likes about him. And she's the kind of gilr who swoons over Jason Momoa so... I don't think women are that fixed in their preferences. Although I do agree that most people (men and woman, that's important) would go for attractive first. That's not shallow, that's normal. But it's not suc… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/19 06:16 PM |
