I put the NSFW warning on here because it mentions suicide which some people may find triggering.

I find it very concerning the amounts of likes this tweet has, and ’m not sure why some still can’t comprehend that men are not a monolithic entity- yes, there are far too many men who do horrific things and commit despicable crimes (even 1 man doing such things would be too many); that doesn’t give anyone an excuse for mass generalisations. I feel this tweet is very tasteless as, male suicide is a very serious problem at the moment (biggest killer in men, especially young men) and many of those who commit suicide often do so from a place of loneliness… so making fun of that is just very crass to me- try telling any family that’s lost a man to suicide that “his loneliness was a consequence of his actions” and I doubt their reactions to that comment will be positive… these mindsets could potentially make some men feel even more unwanted, and make that statistic higher. People may retort to that with “those men are being too fragile”, but often it’s the same people encouraging men to open up about their fragilities that then use fragile as an insult? It makes no sense.
