WHY ITS HARD BEING A MAN

‘Everyone expects a positive stoicism and for us to act manly’

Being a man is actually quite petrifying. Everyone always presumes certain stoicism

in you, a will to stifle emotions and “act manly”. Every so often we hide in the

bathroom, instead of going on our phones but to take an infinitesimal and let our

guard down. For example a rugby team that puts their guard up for 80 minutes tires

out quite rapidly. Try that for every single day and you will begin to get a sense of

what the contemporary world is doing to men. Emotion is proscribed by standards,

and it’s taking its toll in extraordinarily harmful ways.

‘Men’s biggest problem is men’

Maximum of the downsides are core and private rather than social or political. On a

social basis I do just fine. Wherever I look I see men like me running paraphernalia.

However, internally I scuffle. I trust many men do, and a lot of men’s

rights/resentment militants suffer from this. It’s easy seeing women doing well being

in charge, and dreading this change. This trait doesn’t bother me too much. A friend

of mine earns more than me, but her job is harder. I write because I enjoy it and she

doesn’t like it that much. To avoid coming off as trivializing or prejudiced with

colleagues makes me reluctant to express opinions. I don’t want to be respondent of

mansplaining. So I prefer waiting for someone to ask me for my opinion rather than

offering one. I don’t think it’s a political-correctness obstacle. That would be a lazy

response. I think it’s that men aren’t furnished with the terminology or skills to

navigate the world. A lot of trying to be “woke” is shutting up. Which is majestic?

When I try to talk to other men about it, it’s like they’re persevered directly into a

Jordan Peterson YouTube fan-boy videotape. It’s actually really shocking. I think,

Let’s have a talk about us. And the response is like, Oh, we have it so bad. Men’s

prime problem is men. Or should I say us.

 We have to deal with rejection on a completely different level.

Rejection. We have to deal with rejection on a completely different level. Women

usually will get depressed whenever they don’t get approached enough. We’ve been

taught that we have to play a numbers game. We’re anticipated to approach one

woman after another, get rejected to our face, not letting it distress us on any

personal level, and continue on to the next woman until we find someone whose

game.

We can’t allow letting the rejections affect our ego at all, no cracks in our armor are

allowed. Because the number one thing that a guy should have is CONFIDENCE.

You gotta have confidence bro. Don’t let some random women get you down,

there’s a lot more out there. It’s to the point where I want to plea it as confidence-

shaming.

So to a point you utmost have to develop sociopathic tendencies and kill your sense

of empathy so you can be able to maintain your ego. That’s what it actually takes to

not give a damn about the women who reject you. And that has consequences.”

We feel wounded inside as much as women do. We’ve just been taught to

suppress it.

“We feel wounded inside as much as women naturally do. We’ve all just been taught

to subdue it, so when we actually cry or eloquent our emotional pain, the odds are to

be very high that even those displays are heavily muffled….You probably doesn’t

have the slightest idea how much we do hurt.”

As a man, nobody actually cares about you.

“I think the most important thing that is worth mentioning in this whole article, is that

as a man, nobody actually cares about you. If they do so somehow, you probably

had to earn it in some way relatively than being just valued for your humanity. You

can be the most shittiest, most shallow (and even proud of that fact,) immature, and

self-centered, validation-seeking asshole(sorry for the use of strong language) as a

woman and still people will be falling all over themselves to be your friend, to help

you, to get you to come to their party, to date you, etc. (Talking from personal

experience lol) As a man you can be the most attractive, mature, well-rounded, put-

together, and expressively intelligent guy around and it’s still a fight to get people to

pay attention to you like tell me about it. On a elusive and sub-communicated level,

it’s like you have to have an argument to prove your self-worth in order to get people

to grant you and in some cases even show you the most basic as human respect.
