Why do we have to endure this sort of stuff on this site ?

Also New York Times: Why do far-right men connect with each other and express their emotions so easily?

I find it distasteful when women write articles about mens inner emotional lives. Why couldn't the NYT find a man to write this article?

> No, not with these people

> No, these emotions are considered harmful by experts

Flagged this garbage

In my personal experience, showing emotion has only ever been mistaken for weakness. I did a bit of experimentation and learned that weight lifting and a mastery of marvel-like quips yields a far better social standing than opening up or sharing my struggles.

Again, this is my personal experience. I’ve never been in a room where someone didn’t want some metric of performance from me, whether it was a boss, a worker, a friend, or romantic interest. I’d like for this not to be the case
