Guys, I have a hunch that men are suffering in our society far more than we realize. Am I right?

Not sure. Men do suffer, but so do women. Where I'm from suicide thoughts among teens are higher in girls, but boys still hit a nice 1 in 10.

Kids in our schools are thought by women (almost no men teachers in primary school). They are teaching boys that 'typical boy behaviour' is wrong. Which really isn't the case at that age. Kids need to climb trees, fall, occasionally have a bit of a rumble. This brings emotional stress to boys at a young age.

Men might feel like the world is changing for the worst, which is true. Women and minorities are getting more possiblities. But that means (white) men are losing ground.

But when I compare myself to my girlfriend I'm glad I'm a guy. I walk home in the dark and not even think about bad stuff that can happen. And I've never had any trouble getting a raise or a promotion.

Yes, men suffer more than we say. We're still blessed to be men.

[Avicenna]

That is almost certainly true, but it isn't a topic that the people who do advocacy journalism or blogging care about, so we probaby won't hear about it.

[Hello4242]

They don’t know

[Joshydavid25]

Yeah, especially since the leading cause of death for men under 50 is suicide..

[JacobJordan]

More than likely but women are suffering quite a lot as well. This is what happens when 2 different groups are fighting to occupy the same space

[MysticDevice]

Yeah, you're right. We hold it in so much so I'm glad you noticed

[JayBones]

Probably. We will never know though because men suffer in silence

[Billlewis]

That's probably a good bet, and like virtually every other bad event that's occurred over the past four years, that was the plan.

[aceleon]

very very very VERY MUCH.

[Hello4242]

Why exactly do you think this is?

[aceleon]

simple questions
did you ever heard a woman getting shamed if she does not work and have an income?
or ever heard a woman get shamed if she was caring about a guy's body count?
i could ask more but i settle for the first 2 thing that came to my mind.

[exitseven]

Yes, but most guys just suffer in silence. Thoreau wrote tat men lead lives of quiet desperation

[kingmaker21]

Which men are suffering? I have never met any men who is suffering in our society..

[Hello4242]

Why be sarcastic? Seriously you guys are assholes to a girl who’s trying to understand your experience. Wtf

[kingmaker21]

No ma'am but I'm not sarcastic I'm askin seriously which type of men's you're referring?

[LiamJHayden]

I am actually worried because my life is pretty easy.

[MrZameer]

Men will say that surely we are suffering more.
Biased opinion.

[BLP11520]

How so? Inflation sure, but go to work. No shortage of women to date.

[Jmmmfi4]

YES... I REALLY NEED HELP

[_piotr]

Really? No s**t, Sherlock! Good that at least some women acknowledge it.

[Hello4242]

I said more than people realize. There’s nothing obvious about my question.

[Zestyassmf1997]

Uh…I dunno how much people realize.

[Anonymous]

People know this, most just don't care.

[Hello4242]

I actually think most have no idea.

[serious]

Yes, it is true

[NathanDavis]

I'm good.
