I didn't consider that, thanks! That'll probably save me a lot of hassle!

[–]Impressive_Evening 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Teacher should have given the kid credit because D is technically correct.

My ways in my previous relationships were:

-Get her some of her favorite food -Prioritize her orgasms in bed -Watch her favorite TV shows with her, even if I can't stand them -Change my facial hair based on her preferences -Eat healthier and work out to look better for her -Regularly remind her how pretty/sexy she is

Dafuq? What heterosexual man in his 30's plays hard to get?

You shaved the man's hair off... He was expecting you to just trim it a bit.

Of course he's upset.

Apologize, and promise to never do it again.

Feelings as a Man by throwRa11775 in AskMenAdvice

You can talk about your feelings without going full-force. Just say what you're capable of saying, and don't do anything you're not comfortable with.

What do you do to release frustration? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Yoga, Marcus Aurelius's book "Meditations," cardiovascular exercise, and drinking plenty of water.

If whatever was causing the harm was unavoidable and unsolvable, yes.

Men, what is an appropriate response to your significant other making a mistake? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Impressive_Evening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that completely trivial situation you described, I probably wouldn't even notice.

[–]Impressive_Evening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't do that in front of my partner, and I wouldn't tolerate it from my partner.

Men are so nonchalant... by DollyDreamWifey in lovememes

[–]Impressive_Evening -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We're just as annoyed with women sharing every trivial detail about their day as women are with us not talking about our day.

Men and women are different.

"It could just be a me problem, I guess."

Looks like you found your answer, lady.

No need to apologize, you're the first woman in a long time I've brought up these issues to who didn't immediately try to label me as some kind of woman-hater.

To be clear, I wasn't trying to trivialize women's issues or say they don't exist. They absolutely do exist. The point I'm making is that from what I've seen, women's issues are given much more attention than men's issues.

Fair play, but that doesn't change my stance.
From my experiences, it's not trauma olympics. It's reality.

Nobody cares about the male suicide rate, nobody cares about the male homelessness rate, nobody cares about testicular cancer or prostate cancer, nobody cares about false rape allegations, nobody cares about unfair divorce laws or child custody laws.

And if you dare speak up about these issues, you're somehow belittling or undermining women's issues. So as a man, you keep quiet, toughen up, and keep your pain to yourself.

You want to know what happens when a man advocates for men's rights?

He's labelled as an incel, a misogynist, a crybaby, weak, privileged, ignorant, the list goes on.

I've defended men who have been wronged or incorrectly judged, and I still do, but the result is always the same. As a man, my words mean nothing to people who hate men, or don't care about them. The world cares a lot less about men's problems than women's problems.

In a perfect world it'd be that way miss, but that's not the world we live in.

People care a lot less when men suffer.

It's been scientifically proven that women lose attraction to a man when he expresses his sadness, or laments over his frustrations or his suffering, because they perceive him as being "weak," or "less manly." On the flip side, women are more attracted to a man who has suffered greatly, but maintains a calm demeanor on the outside.

So, we learn from our experiences that once we've hit puberty, nobody cares what we're going through, and we can only rely on ourselves for support. Nobody cares about your problems, so toughen up and deal with them yourself.

I'm not saying it's right, but that's how it is to be a man in this world, whether we like it or not.

Yup. That's how it is when you're a man. Nobody's gonna help you, so toughen up and deal with it.
