Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.
It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.
I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

Your post was removed due to rule 14, titles must be descriptive.
Titles must describe the content so that:
Users know what the link they are clicking on content before they click it
Users who are searching for specific material can easily find the post they are looking for
Take the time to describe your link, and save the time of hundreds of other people.
When making a title, it's best to assume the reader doesn't know what you're talking about - but don't go overboard with every detail. Then check if there are any words you can cut out without losing any important information.
It's a good idea to pause for a few moments before hitting the "Post" button. Check for typos, ambiguous phrasing, redundant words - and of course for unintended meanings!

Very, very true.
Not many distress centres for those who are like him, either. Sad world. Fucking sad

Would you care to expound? There is no two sentence limit here and noone will ridicule you here.

I would, but not now. I have to prepare for my law school midterms tomorrow, so I don't have the time to go into it now I'm afraid. I'll make a longer, complete post here later.

Bit of an off topic rant but this "toxic masculinity" bullshit pisses me off. Men aren't allowed to be themselves anymore they are expected to act like bigger women, but some how it's being a man that's at fault and not treating men like women. It's not that men can't show emotions but really most men don't show emotions because when they do they are met with an immediate loss of respect especially from women ( let's be real her though this is not crying for a reason such as losing someone close to you, this is crying about issues in your life. There is a major difference)
Most women will say they want someone who isn't afraid to cry (and yes, there are some who actually do mean it) but the moment they do many women are turned off and the count down clock of the relationship starts. It happens time and time again and people are left wondering what happened because they have been fed the line that real men cry. But men have rarely ever cried through out history, because it might feel good for a moment but does nothing to solve the problem. At it's base crying is what you do to attract attention to your problem, which is why some will turn on the water works so people will do things for them.
This same nonsense has been peddled for at least the last 20-30 years and it doesn't work. Instead of trying the same thing that has no basis in reality over and over it's time to do what men have always done in the past, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get shit done. I promise you if you do that instead of crying you will feel much better.
Crying helps nothing least of all your relationships. Most of men's problems now days stem from being denied the chance to act like men. We aren't just defective women, we are men. That is never more evident than in the case of school shootings which only really started as schools made it punishable to fight back against bullies. They were non-existent when schools had shooting classes and everyone brought guns to school. But when you take away someones means of fighting back they get hopeless and for some it leads to the worst possible outlet.
Not much to be done in this guys situation except learn from it. Make sure you don't put yourself in a situation that makes the same thing possible, and learn how to firmly say no without getting aggressive or violent. The only other thing we can do is get the rape of men in any form legally recognized in the future to start getting men the justice they deserve when such an act is committed against them.
I know a lot of people are going to hate this post but it is what it is crying about it won't change it, doing something will. That seems to be something we have forgotten as a society.
You aren't a victim unless you act like one. And it's all too popular to be a victim today, that way lies a race to the bottom. I don't know about you, but id rather have a race to the top, do something find a purpose in life and stop acting like a victim. The world is a harsh place we might have dressed it up a bit with technology but it still there under the surface and you'll drown in the harshness if you let it pull you down.
