Ignores blatant statistics

GrizzlyLeather · 2022-09-14T04:28:27+00:00

I had a female boss. In fact I've had many female bosses.

During college I worked as a Lifeguard, Water Safety Instructor, Lifeguard Trainer, CPR/First Aid Trainer, and Shift Manager.

I worked at many different aquatic facilities.

Long story short: One shift at the waterpark, some woman followed me around for over 4 hours taking creep shots of me. This was confirmed to be happening by another lifeguard behind me in rotation who saw the screen on her camera. She would look the other way and a little red light on her camera would blink and I knew she was taking pictures of me. When I told my female manager this made me uncomfortable she literally laughed in my face and told me to "learn how to take a compliment"

Another female manager of mine hadn't hired a single male shift manager in over 6 years. This was like a 6 person turn over rate during those 6 years also. Someone left every year. I built up experience and credentials at other aquatic facilities while I was just lifeguarding and doing water safety instructions at her facility over the summers. Even with all the experience I had gained and references that attested how great I was, she still hired someone who just passed the basic Lifeguard course a month ago, but had never actually been a Lifeguard before. Some kid came into the Lifeguard office complaining of being short of breath, and she asked another Lifeguard to go get her inhaler and gave it to him. SHE LITERALLY GAVE A PATRON SOMEONE ELSE'S PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION... that's how incompetent she was. But because I had a dick between my legs, despite all my experience, she deemed me "incapable ". I could go on and on.

People need to stop pretending like only male bosses can be sexist.

Wow this is clearly a part of the problem women who advocate for men but not from a healthy or positive place how can a professional ignore the statistics and data on male self deletion. For how she feels and imply women need more support than men! Why do these women pretend to help and then show there true feelings and be surprised. Image she is you mental health professional you have already been let down by a system “patriarchy” that is in your favour. Lmao at her weak sauce responses to her hypocritical language!

fhdizjcj · 2022-09-13T22:33:19+00:00

In my experience it’s the other way around, my entire school life I thought being depressed or having anxiety were for pussies or you were just soft, hated my mindset then

elmo_knows · 2022-09-13T22:51:14+00:00

They hate men giving advice to eachother and creating our own groups because they want us to be tools, not humans

Divide and conquer

alpha_28 · 2022-09-14T01:48:56+00:00

“I wanted to light a fire to get a debate going” and when asked why she chose to ignore stats.. “it was gud banter bro” wtf. I don’t even understand this person…

Mens mental health has never been a focus until fairly recently and even then it is SO ingrained in society especially here in Australia “she’ll be right” with that true blue Aussie blokes are hard and unfeeling garbage it’s not healthy nor is it helping anyone.

Women are certainly not labelled “harsher” with mental health as she claims.. idek where that come from.

devasiaachayan · 2022-09-13T22:39:59+00:00

Women who are mentally ill have far better lives than Men who are mentally ill, they're even valued. As someone who is mentally ill and is getting his talents and opportunities ruined because of it, this is bullshit

ArthurHaroldKaneJnr · 2022-09-13T23:24:30+00:00

"I've seen it time and time again on social media"

Forming your opinions from what you see on social media is a dangerous and slippery slope.

comblocpeasant · 2022-09-14T00:42:06+00:00

Reddit is bad.

Draxare · 2022-09-14T03:04:28+00:00

While you are correct on the suicide rate of men vs women and the person you are replying to is an absolute moron. Police do not kill more black men then they do white in fact the actual statistics indicate police kills aligns near identically to the actual crime statistic by demographic (which means ~60% of deaths are white)

SilverFang47x · 2022-09-14T03:53:23+00:00

Just try opening up about any of your feelings to a woman and watch how fast she loses attraction to you. Then it's either she breaks up with you or uses it against you in an argument later. Men get fucked over no matter who we go to for help. That's why I tell my friends to reach out to me if they are in a crisis. We can share a few beers out on my balcony or something and just talk about what's going on. I'm not going to judge them for having emotions. To put that in context: I don't even drink, but I will just to level out with a friend in need so they feel more comfortable.

INDAV · 2022-09-13T22:41:34+00:00

What is she talkin about, half my exes turned out to be mentally ill. I know I can't be the only one haha

SlapMuhFro · 2022-09-14T04:26:20+00:00

Uhh, more black people are not killed than white people by the police.

NKNMbhop · 2022-09-14T01:11:00+00:00

when people go like "men" this "women" that i kinda dont care anymore, they advocate for equality yet make sure to split the two genders apart... I see people as people. (Not related but its like we're going backwards)

SansyBoy14 · 2022-09-14T11:02:53+00:00

I want to slap her so fucking much.

It wasn’t until I start to accept my sexuality, and accept the more feminine sides of me, where I finally had people who cared about my mental health. And even then it’s ONLY through the internet.

We’ve been told our entire life’s that we need to man up, and suck it up, by men and women. I remember crying face down in the grass after being tackled when I was 7-8 being told to suck it up by my friends dad, and when I ran home and told my mom I was met with “stop being such a cry baby, man up” I remember being spanked by my dad several times for crying, and then spanked again when I wouldn’t stop crying.

When I finally started telling people what I was going through mental health wise in high school, I was immediately met with everyone saying that I was faking it for attention.

I’m extremely jealous of the support that so many women have, to the point where there are groups made specially for women looking for mental help.

I made a friend in college who is about 10ish years older than me, and he’s still a good friend. He’s also an alcoholic, and has been when I met him. He’s tried to stop a few times now, and I’ve always been very supportive, however recently I found out I’m the only one who supports him. All of his other friends, both men and women, encourage him to drink, and I’m the only person who has told him no.

We’re taught growing up that showing emotions is bad, and that only girls are allowed to show emotions. Ask any man you want, and he’ll tell you he was raised with these same messages being shoved in his head.

We should be able to talk about our mental health, no matter what gender we are. If it was encourage a lot more then we wouldn’t see males having the highest percentage of suicides.

Even with therapist, I can’t say everything I want to because I have it engrained in my head that it’s bad to show emotions. I’ve attempted suicide once, and almost did it again, and I think the majority of people in my shoes would have probably succeeded already. I’ve been to several different therapist, and even my most trusted friends don’t fully know what I’m going through, because it’s still engrained that talking about emotions is a bad thing.

Sbisuschrist · 2022-09-14T11:37:40+00:00

It's impossible to have a meaningful conversation with these people.

They ignore common knowledge, statistics, anecdotal evidence and reason.

Some deranged feminist told them one time that men have it easy and women struggle, and that's their whole worldview, forever unchallenged.

The_Real_Raw_Gary · 2022-09-14T16:40:24+00:00

It’s interesting seeing a woman being somehow pro mens health but at the same time shitting on mens menthal health at the exact same time.

But she’s wrong. As a man I’ve never once had some overwhelming support for issues I’ve faced. Even in therapy my feelings were pushed aside and I was basically told a therapeutic version of “man up”

Never really understood why older men seemed to be so closed off in my teens and early 20s but in my 30s I very much understand why men decide to just suck it up until they’re so depressed their life explodes. At least the explosion illicits some sort of response for emotional assistance I guess.

Sad it’s like that.

petedacook2 · 2022-09-14T20:10:26+00:00

BLM was NOT started because a large amount of black people were being killed by police.

BLM was starred after the acquittal of George Zimmerman and because of the atreyvon Martin incident.

Not because someone looked into the number of black people compared to the number of white people killed by police.

llia155 · 2022-09-14T20:13:27+00:00

I'm not gonna lie, this whole discussion is beyond fucking retarded. Women don't care about men's mental health issues, men don't care about men's mental health issues. Women don't care about women's mental health issues, men don't care about women's mental health issues. This isn't a men vs women thing. It's and Men + Women vs Mental Health Epidemic

lilbuffkitty · 2022-09-14T06:06:28+00:00

That BLM analogy was ignoring blatant statistics.

BlvckAnomally26 · 2022-09-18T20:06:06+00:00

The thing women don’t seem to realize is the only reason the “suck it up” exists is because of women. I’ve never seen a woman be attracted to or befriend an emotional heterosexual man.

WordBro · 2022-09-13T23:05:00+00:00

This sickens me to be honest.

-iamwhatiam · 2022-09-14T03:02:01+00:00

What a bitch. I hear from literally every woman I've talked to in the past few years about how they gotta "visit their therapist" even when they have no diagnosed mental issues.

AngryWatchmaker · 2022-09-14T11:06:30+00:00

As an equal opportunity hater, I think everyone should just suck it up.

thnuaa · 2022-09-14T17:47:18+00:00

Why can't everyone just stop being so mentally ill all the time? More importantly, why can't men and women have one day when we put aside our differences and join together to roast nonbinary "people"?

MrDannyProvolone · 2022-09-14T18:17:16+00:00

I hate the term toxic masculinity. Like, the people being accused of embodying toxic masculinity are assholes. They're just assholes. No need to try and drag a whole gender down. Not all men are "toxic" just like all women aren't "Karen's". Both genders are full of assholes though.

Spartan322 · 2022-09-29T01:37:59+00:00

That last comment is completely hypocritical complaining about not listening to statistics when the whole reason black folks are killed more in comparison to cops is because they are the ones who interact overwhelming more and more negatively with cops, (not to mention they are constantly told not to cooperate with cops and instead to fight or run from them, which new flash, is very capable to result in getting you justifiably shot beyond the felony prison sentence if you live) when you have more incidence of interaction, you're obviously gonna get more cases of negative interaction resulting in more death comparatively...then again if I recall correctly the FBI statistics actually say that cops killing black folks is remarkably low for the amount of violent crime committed, asians are actually killed monstrously more by cops then by whites and blacks but because the quantity of asians being killed is still dwarfed by everybody else (as the criminal acts of asians is also massively dwarfed by the criminal statistics of other races) nobody dares talk about it.

Yes this is a bit offtopic but I have nothing else to add and felt that this point needs to be made super clear, BLM is already an inherently racist organization devised by evil people for the sake of promoting a race war, using false information to push a false and racist narrative, it is also a money laundering and Ponzi scheme and anyone who sees arguments regarding it should have it explained to them what it is, especially when there has never been a single case where it was proven correct in its response to any event. (even the first case, "hands up, don't shoot" wasn't true, he charged the cop and was killed for that reason, it started based on a lie)

Modern Men are the result of 10,000+ mating choice made by women.

Every quality men have was desired by women in times past.

Then explain the existence of Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and his crucial works being propagated throughout the four corners of the world.

Yeah, that's an odd claim.

tnm76 · 2022-09-15T04:55:47+00:00

When I was diagnosed with depression, and going through it really bad, my ex the day she left, looked me in the eye and said “stop with the pity party” shit like that doesn’t help. It makes things worst. After that it took 6 months for me to get help. One day having a panic attack, feeling like the world was crashing in on me, I made the decision to call my local mental health hospital, they talked me through the panic attack and set me up for an appointment the very next day. 5 years later, I’m a lot better, depression likes to creep it’s ugly head every now and then, but being on meds and having someone to talk to that doesn’t judge or ridicule me, has made me feel like myself again most of the time.

Keith_Bakker · 2022-09-15T11:36:14+00:00

Dang she got wurdered

BloomingBrains · 2022-09-15T20:51:05+00:00

Really? Because I see it the other way around. The slightest hint of a man doing something weird or wrong is pathologized as "yeah he must be mentally ill". Meanwhile women doing shitty behavior gets explained as "don't blame her, its hard being a woman, she's just going through a tough time", etc.

LetsTry2GetAlong · 2022-09-16T02:20:10+00:00

" Women arent"?.... because its just assumed that all women are.

Apprehensive_Round_9 · 2022-09-17T15:15:20+00:00

I honestly think mental health issues are ignored equally in different ways. Their is so little mental health care and people die by suicide often.

MBV-09-C · 2022-09-18T14:14:30+00:00

Gotta love when the gaslighting attempt is so bad it's like they came out of a twilight zone dimension.

She doesn’t advocate for shit lmfao

I_use_both_hands · 2022-09-30T05:56:59+00:00

I fear for the men she says she's helping. Blaming men for these issues is like blaming the baby for being born.

sexyfrikinllama · 2022-10-03T06:27:50+00:00

She's basically telling us to "lay in the bed we made" like the men in this era invented society

I like the scrolling thing, on the bottom of the post. I feel like one day, this is what the news will be reporting to us.

CastorTinitus · 2022-10-09T01:20:38+00:00

Someone should point out to that ignorant CUNT that the leading cause of mens death isn’t heart attack, or accident or a itty bitty innocent female shooting the evil, abusive abhorrent man, but suicide. Suicide. Fuck her and fuck anyone that spouts false, agenda fueled hatred towards other humans for what they carry between their legs. Fuck their sexist, bigoted foul hatred. Fuck them.

Dra_goony · 2022-10-14T17:23:49+00:00

A female friend of mine had gone through a lot of stress and sadness and I was always there for her, had her back through it all. Then at one point I open up and tell her I had felt very suicidal during a period of my life and you know what she did? She fucking laughed like I was telling a joke. Learned my lesson on that one.

manfred2989 · 2022-12-22T14:55:22+00:00

Simply put, how many organizations are there for women and how many for men? When a woman gets abused she can go to a women’s shelter but when a man gets abused can he go to a men’s shelter (and no his friends place doesn’t count). Who created the word toxic masculinity? Stupid feminists did.

Watx_Grimm · 2022-09-14T00:06:08+00:00

I have a feeling op posted that knowing it'll cause a lot of stink

Greggs11 · 2022-09-14T17:34:00+00:00

Just to clarify, she has deleted her post as she was apparently receiving death threats. I do not advise anyone to send her death threats nor have I ever advised anyone too.

Also she has replied to someone on my post calling him a “brainwashed idiot” for believing me and that I was ‘the only one triggered by her post’. This is not the case. There were over 110 comments on her post before she deleted it and not one person there was supporting what she said. There were plenty of others that were ‘triggered’ but simply didn’t reply to her after she accused them of encouraging toxic masculinity. There were also other people who stood their ground and argued with her about it in the comments. She is trying to make this out as if she had some sort of support for her vile opinion and that I came along and changed everyone’s mind. No one backed her at all hence why she deleted her post.

I’m keeping this post up knowing that she’s going to be reading through the comments in hope that she’ll learn her lesson and not be so stupid in future.

MangosArentReal · 2022-09-14T01:22:24+00:00

Besides the BS argument, if someone can't control their emotions enough and respect blind people using screen readers, that they type in all caps... They don't have a respectable opinion.

This-Is-for-Corn · 2022-09-14T19:51:02+00:00

Buncha clowns in this shit hole.

I hope we all die.

OddRecognition3810 · 2022-09-13T22:46:11+00:00

This guy has just taken one portion of my thread and spun it to fit his narrative. I already stated my opinion is tainted by my own experiences as I’ve only ever seen support for men during mental health breaks. I’m also not a professional and I don’t work for any corporations for mens health. I already stated to Gregg that when I’m in the presence of much older people who have that toxic mindset of men shouldn’t speak out because they need to be “manly” and “strong” I’m the first one to disagree. I simply said from experience I’ve seen women be called emotional and crazy. My entire post was based on women being described more rudely when they suffer with mental health issues. Even going as far as telling men to break up with women because they have anxiety and depression. Really good people that are judged on their diagnosis and not on their personality. Nothing I said was against men or men being recognized more in the media for their mental health. I know the statistics,Gregg just couldn’t get past the fact that this was personal based. Now he wants some other men to attack me just as he did,he refused to listen and you can go see for yourself I was respectful to everybody. I never once stated that men shouldn’t be more recognized
