Let me guess without even reading it yet let me summarize: Blah blah "be more vulnerable to women" blah blah "stoicism bad" blah blah "give us your delicious male tears."

VEDANTAM: Many men find there's no one around them at the end of the day. And they find they have become trapped by a series of unspoken rules. If you're a man, you're supposed to be strong and independent.

Yep.

VEDANTAM: But as the boys got older, something happened. It became harder for them to express tenderness and vulnerability.

Yep.

VEDANTAM: Even parents buy into the idea that there's something to be concerned about if their teenage boys appear sensitive and vulnerable.

No, I'm not a wizard. It's just that these social constructionists are extremely predictable.

Their goal is similar to that of any woman, which is to bitch you up.

Same thing with me.

The one thing I've learned to count on with them is no matter what story they run, you can be sure it reflects the values of female supremacists.

Honestly I'm surprised some men are still alive.

And then you have that Australian sucicide helpline paying for a bitch who yells "kill all men" to be a speaker at their event.

This is why MGTOW is so important. Yes, it's a message on how to live. But it's also sympathetic to the pain men have to deal with in modern life when nobody else gives a fuck (and worse - ridicules you for giving a fuck).
