How do we teach men to shut about their insecurities?

[Anonymous]

Men seriously need to go to therapy and leave us all alone about wanting to talk about their wittle feelings and BS. NO ONE LIKES COMPLAINING MEN. Like seriously just go to therapy. "Men should open up more" means open to a THERAPIST, not us

"Men should open up more" does not mean open up to a therapist. "Men should open up more" is the world pretending they care about men instead of being honest. Some men fall for it and get shamed, but they are shamed if they dont because that's "toxic masculinity" so it really doesn't matter either way.

The dudes who make pussy their entire lives and hate women when they can't get any are annoying. Anything else they might be straggling with, they will be shamed/ridiculed regardless so they might as well deal with it however they want.

It’s the other way around, guys should feel happy to open up to friends about issues, mental health, insecurities, concerns etc. Not opening up can result in minor issues becoming major issues.

Not a huge fanfare thing all the time, but important stuff. Girls do this with their friends and are also far more likely to do counselling about stuff.

When guys open up they tend to make it all about themselves instead of considering what other people and women go through. That's why they should pay someone whose job it is to listen to their squabbles instead of using friends and women as emotional tampons.
