I am a bisexual man. Whenever I see comments discriminating against people with same-sex attractions, I don't really feel bad about it. Because it feels like that mentality is dying, and because I know there is a large portion of people who will support people facing that discrimination.
But whenever I hear comments discriminating against men, I feel sad and alone. Because it feels like there's nobody to turn to when faced with that, and that the social acceptability of it isn't changing anytime soon.
I feels like most men either cope by being complicit in the downplaying of men's issues in the way that people with issues often cope by ignoring them, or they turn to misogynistic groups who acknowledge men's issues to some extent, at the cost of discriminating against women, downplaying women's issues, and expecting you to do both.
Well I don't want to do either of these things, but I'd like to do something more proactive than sit with these emotions and hope for a better future.
And I want to preface I'm not looking for comments just complaining about dealing with the same, I'd like to try to discuss positive actions that can actually be taken.
