Society doesn't care no.
Of course we men should acknowledge each other better than we do, at the same time too I know, I never been dismissed by a man as much as I have of women. I remember when I was a kid even, my younger sister was always obsessed about being a victim, she threw pity parties for herself constantly and everyone should always feel so sorry for her. She developed a complete victim mentality which is also important we men don't do either just cause we may be less fortunate in some areas. Anyway, what I meant to say the first time I for one as a kid said something to my sisters, my older sister who was almost 30 at the time, she got so furious with me for sharing my feelings, I was 14 ish at the time, but she got so angry with me, not from what I said but I cause I shared something personal, meanwhile my younger sis, nobody said anything to at all, even though she would complain 24/7 even when she was the lucky child, she escaped all the abuse that I didn't when I was younger.
My first experience emotionally with a girl I kept telling her over and over that I love very deeply and that she should be sure that she really want me knowing my flaws an all (she was pursuing me, for months) Cause I have a hard time letting my guard down. So finally I said okay and we talked and seemed like we were gonna become a thing, next day she starts flirting with another man after trying to convince me for months that she was into me and wanted me, she started pursuing him instead. My first actual relationship I found more comfort at the graveyard than I did with her, I would hang out with the dead at night instead, went for walks at night to this nearby cemetery, she never knew or noticed. Anyway.. I could give endless of examples really, but I personally think both genders need to do better by men that way. It's not weak to be compassionate.
I don't care about men's feelings
Sadly majority doesn't care about their feelings. Yes I understand that the person isn't fine at all. Either men need to fight for themselves which will bring them disgrace and shame at end anyways even if they win or they will just keep quiet. But it's better to fight for yourself rather than fighting with you right? I mean fight with others rather than fighting with yourself. In the end society is just like a test. They will gossip for 2 days and eventually forget your existence. It will take time for society to change it's core thinking because yes if one person is wise then there are more arrogant ones than them. Actually this is something which is becoming a very big issue in today's world. We need to change our mentality because in end we are the society only. Men should start being more open about their feelings and women shouldn't judge them. It will take few generations for sure just like it took few generations for women to get equality but it will be all worth it if we start working on it for now. We don't want our future generations to suffer what the present generation suffers from, do we? Everyone is a human and humans have a heart which hurts a lot when it is criticized for something it can't help. Everyone should be seen as individual not from their gender or on things which they can't choose and are borned with. Nonetheless at least it have started. Minority at least understand the situation. Better than before. It will improve eventually hopefully 😊.
I think it really depends so I’m gonna go for half and half. As for men caring about other men I don’t know but on social media, my guys friends at least are speaking out about their mental health more than most girls I know which is honestly really good to see and more should be doing so (if they feel comfortable)
As for women I think we generally have the biological instinct to help anyone who needs to be helped though obviously some women who are particularly activated or hurt by other men in the past shall we say tend to be quite harsh and say eg. Men don’t have it as hard, why should they have any issues. Or whatever argument those certain people have causing them to not want to hear the feelings of men.
I think most women, myself included are glad to hear men opening up more and more about feelings and if we ask how you are if we don’t know you well and you respond ‘I’m alright’ obviously won’t push much further same as men asking women and them saying ‘I’m fine’ but otherwise we care and want to listen and help you and your feelings as much as possible

Society doesn't care about anyone, it's the people "you're entourage" are the ones who makes a difference...
Foe example: i never had the problem to express my feelings, if the girls can do it than i can too...
You won't appear weak if you express yourself, the difference is sometimes i just want to cry but i always hold it back and appear strong, cause i don't like to cry in front of others for the problems that i have!
People who loves you will always care about you and will help you to get out of you're misery no matter what you're gender is...
Now if we want to talk about the society, well who is the society? It's men and women, why do women receives more sympathy and care? It's because a lot of men decided to listen and care about them!
Why men are a lot less cared about? It's because a lot of women decided not ro care about how a man feels because women think that such type of men are weak and useless, also because a lot of men were taught to keep their emotions bottled inside and not to ler it out cause it makes them look weak and an unmasculine trait!
I am what i am, if you like it or not and i don't if you care or not, if you do than i'll care about you and if not than i'll treat you the same way you have treated me, period! Whether you're a girl or a boy!
If someone asks how you are then they obviously care a little bit. But if you reply with "I'm alright" then how are they supposed to know? How is that different from someone saying "I'm alright" and meaning it? A woman would likely admit she's not ok and knowing that it's easier to offer comfort than probing someone who's not going to admit it. Take control of your suffering, if you're not ok then say it and seek help!
Society as a whole doesn't care about anybody's feeling. The only ones who will truly care for you are family, closest of friends and a partner. People have this idea that society cares about women... only because we're more vulnerable and can be physically hurt more so than men. And sometimes only when men think they can get something out of it that they pay attention unless as above - family, close friends or partner.
I care about people of both genders feelings, usually though we all live in a bubble so only those we know. It is hard to care about strangers I never met.
Society in general doesn't really care about anyone, society is such a loss term though. No one can change society at all, you get little area's that change but things are only your perception in your area.
Asking someone how they are doing though is a joke, men will say I'm "alright" and women will say "Fine" both are suffering and no one really wants to know the truth. It is a greeting and nothing more.
People are selfish and tend to only care about themselves and those they know, regardless of gender.
No, time as well as experts have pointed this out multiple times. Society does not care about a man's feelings. In fact, it is often used against them. Even if many people don't like to admit, society is basically rejecting a man who doesn't "MAN UP!". If this was not the case, then you wouldn't see men keep things in for their own good. Often this is labeled as 'toxic masculinity'. What's ironic is that this "toxic masculinity" is reinforced by WOMEN. Because women in general ge turned off by men who show emotions/vulnerablilty. The suicide and depression rates on the male side speak for themselves. Professional 'help' is also mostly designed for women.

❤️❤️❤️ a lot of the time us women dismiss that men are human beings with feelings and emotion just like us. I do feel bad for the standard society has placed upon men. It’s nice to have a tough exterior but you are humans just like us and you should feel safe to express how you feel. I’ve never seen my dad cry in my 24 years of life. It’s so sad.
Absolutely not and in my opinion they shouldn't. I'm part of society and I can straight up tell you I don't care about men's feelings. Woman are born w/ inherent value where men must create value in themselves. It takes character, intelligence, thick skin, luck, humility and the ability to keep your emotions in check just to have a shot. Showing emotion for something serious a death of a love one, the birth of a new one etc is one thing but to make decisions or openly display your emotions as a man is weak and never gets rewarded. To many younger men 18-25 have been pussussified for so long that they really believe this behavior is standard. Now they're confused as to way they can't get a girl or find a career.
I don't believe society cares. It has been ingrained into us that we need to mind our own business and not get involved.
I do care about my brothers, dad, fiance, and our male friends problems and some have opened up to me over the years. I think growing up as the only girl in the house opened my eyes to a lot of things that others miss out on.
yes very much so 😏
Try and cry in front your girl - she will gossip about you with her friends and disrespect you and cheat on you with more of an alpha male.
Try and tell the court you've been asulted lol they'll smirk in your face and act like you just spoken different language
Try and tell the police you've attacked or even a club body guard. They'll tell you to man up and keep away lol.
Try and do what tyreese did when she took his kids. "Oh what do you want from me"😂😂 most of your friend will be looking at you like they want nothing to do with you.
The point is the proof is in the pudding. Men get patronised all the time when they deal with emotional pain. Which is why men don't speak up when going through any shit.
No, sadly society doesn’t care as much as it should.
I have learned to acknowledge a guys feelings when he is hurt.
We are all human, and each and everyone of us have emotions.
Men are allowed to show emotions.
Unfortunately society tells men to suppress their feelings which makes many feel uncomfortable with even telling close family and friends how they feel out of fear from being characterized as weak
They do, however a lot is down to guys in society, how we interact with other guys.
Getting a guy to first admit he has a problem is hard.
Then getting a guy book an initial assessment is even harder.
Then him turning up for it … about 3 in 10 chance.
Free counselling (UK) is there for guys and girls.
I cannot speak for society as its too general a construct. who cares... only thing that matters is what you do.
Men do have feelings, and is best to be authentic and find places you can be authentic.
there are people who are caring for others and people who aren't.
it only requires looking at another person to gauge their expression and open a conversation.
We don't wanna seek help for it as I see it. That's both a great point and a horrible point. We wanna fix our own problems. That's a leadership quality when people look to you as a problem-solver. I can't blame society if I stubbornly want to fix my own problems. I don't think it'd turn its back on me if I want help. I just don't want to ask for help. Where are the men seeking help who get turned down? Is the problem that we lack resources or that we don't actually want help in the first place?
Absolutely not. Gen Z is full of hypocrisy when it comes to this whole narrative about mental health. We say we care about everyone, but the truth is that we really don't. I see all kinds of hateful posts about men on just about every social media platform there is... so much to the point that I"ve had to take frequent breaks from the internet because of how awful it's gotten. I was just having a conversation with a co-worker about how whenever a big male celebrity opens up or cries... he gets meme'd to oblivion. I can't imagine it's much better for the everyday man who decides to be emotive in 2022.
Women see men who talk about their feelings as emotional and weak, no matter what they say. The minute you expose any weakness or vulnerability, they tear you apart in their mind. If you want them around too much, you're too needy. If you tell them you love them before they tell you, half the time it scares them off because they have a fear of intimacy. The list goes on forever.
Society needs a disposable class and that's us.
I don't see that changing, do you really think the Ukrainian men want to die when Putin tries to grab another chunk of Ukraine? Like the thousands that died when Putin invaded Crimea?
No, but they know that it's up to them to protect their homes , families wives and children. The male protective instinct is often used to subjugate him. .
No offence but society doesn't really care about anyone feeling. You find small groups of people who are supportive and do care, but society as a whole doesn't really care about the individual.
Generally society doesn't care about men's feelings, most of the talk of men's mental health is virtue signalling. Men are still expected to be strong and emotionless, having feelings is still generally seen as a weakness in men.
Some men start this by telling each other not to show feelings. Then attempt to label those that do.
