What social stigma does society need to get over?

Question

@pinksands04 Why should they? Folks with brain issues still make for great Monsters to focus societies ills on. Lived my whole life feeling like a hideous creature, stuck in a Vacuum, Crushed in Isolation, and labeled a Freak Monster just because I think differently. Still, I have yet to turn my weapons on myself to end it all, despite it being rather tempting. Society needs Justified Hatred as much as the Air we breath. And "progressive" Society loves to Loathe the other they can't profit off of. You will never get rid of Social Stigma- Hate is infinitely stronger than love.

That women can't be tradespeople. That they can't so anything but cook and fold laundry. I have some female friends that still have to put up with men talking to them like they're small children when it comes to cars or home repairs or things of that nature. They really get pissed off. The fact is that our grandmothers and great-grandmothers were sweating in factories building tanks, planes, artillery pieces, and everything else during World War 2 while the men were in combat. Women have been doing this shit for a long time.

I don't know all I can think of is girls always plays and always pretends to like the guys that they not liked then always screw him over. After being played and tormented so many times. its makes him lose his confidence and his self-esteem and never able to grow his balls again and permanently making him losing hope on finding someone. If the woman has very strong feelings for him. She should go to him and find out what wrong and she should show him she's not out to hurt his feelings like the other girls has and if there is obstacles then they should compromise it then her just rejecting the obstacles because she didn't want to make any compromise on it.

Fully agree with what @agape93 put. This entire bollox about what a girl can and cannot wear, then this entire sex partner thing. Also the entire thing about hating due to sexuality. (there is a common link it begins with R).

That:
1. Males can't be raped.
2. Males shouldn't be virgins.
3. Women shouldn't approach men they're interested in---that's the man's job.
4. A child should stay with its mother.
5. Crying makes a man weak or a sissy.

The BS of assuming people you disagree with politically are evil people out to destroy the world and ruin your life. It really isn’t that simple. People believe the things they believe because they were either taught to or they just make sense to them, even if some of them just aren’t true at all. We have to let go of all the assumptions that everyone else is wrong and out to ruin you. I can disagree about how the world should be run and not have evil intentions because my way of thinking doesn’t align yours or your beliefs.

Mental Health and Neurodivergence. We care so much about cancer and other bodily diseases but when it comes to anything different in brain function it’s a stigma.

Who is loved by who. Being loved and loving one another is beautiful no matter what.

Clothing! Why does the type or style of clothing a person wears matter? Fashion is fashion and at the end of the day it’s simply fabric covering a body.

Race. Everyone has the same organs in the body, blood running through their veins, and a brain in their head. Were all human! We are one species and need to care for one another. We all have our own unique cultures and heritage we come from and it should be shared and explored by other cultures rather than judged and discriminated against.

Stigmas associated with mental health. Usually these stigmas come from misguided views that these individuals are “different,” from everyone else. While stigma is not limited to mental conditions, attitudes towards psychiatric illnesses tend to be more negative than that toward medical conditions

The stigma of nice guys so women can stop only pursuing strong dominant British Chads. Also some minorities like myself do not follow Islam just because I am brown I actually like dank memes from 4 Chan and hate my ancestors. I used to like the alt right but was mocked for it and my parents grounded me so I've now toned it down but I still don't hide how much I despise the Jews.
