Hey what happened to my exposé on @LadyNeptune telling males to kill themselves, including description on how best to succeed with the task? Suddenly she can't stand for the things that come out of her mouth?

Anywho, you were saying something about how social conditioning only applies to women while men are just born assholes. @LaMadrina

All in favor of a Men's Mental Health Awareness Day? Hell make it a month. I see only benefits for all sides. 😘

Seriously...a simple Google search will give you volumes of data that support an equal distribution of mental illness across genders.

The types of mental illness vary between gender. Suicide is most often associated with depression, and yet women suffer from depression more than men.

The difference is women can openly express it, and not have to worry about people calling them weaker humans. Men are taught to never show it, or talk about it, or let it out and cry about it. The second they do people walk away, or just stick around long enough to call them pathetic.

I don't think men repress their emotions, it's just that women are more inclined to talk a lot, I supposed there might be hormonal reasons. Women can just sit together and talk about nothing.

I do think men are more fragile than women, biologically. women are the base biological state with a big reproductive task taking a toll. Men have a less taxing reproductive task to carry and the excess energy is used to grow beyond the basic state, but this growth can go in the positive or in the negative direction.

There are more geniuses but also more idiots in the male population.

Im all for mental health

You're a woman hater

Difference

What are you then if you refer to certain men as "women" to insult? lol

Why is it that If I hate 50 male idiots and 50 female idiots equally I am still labelled solely as a "woman hater"?

If you knew me you'd know I can't even stand intermingling with the majority of men while I spend most of my time working among women.. bc I prefer it.

So doesn't that technically make me a man-hater?

This would be a great thread if it wasn't made out of pettiness and spite.

Also would be nice it was informative but that's not what op really intended.

Let me help though

Here is a link to a website that lists information and can help men (or anyone)get help

http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/finding-help

A mental health hotline

www.mentalhealthline.org/?n=8772825422

And I've heard good things about betterhelp.com it's like online counseling, cheaper than most irl setups. Mostly good to vent and talk about things discreetly.

For those living outside of North America but have spent some time there, how do you think the stigma against men expressing emotions compares to where you're from? Is it stronger, with men expected to be even more stoic, or is it less?

Aye, pirobo! You summon me with this bullshit. You wanna dance, puto. Let's dance.

1. I never said social conditioning for women only. 2. Never said men were born assholes. You might have been, but then again I'm not sure you fit in the men's category.

You make jokes and twist words for attention.

Ay la pička di madre !

No actually that's exactly what you implied. There is no other way to interpret it. The thread is deleted now unfortunately. Is there any way to retrieve posts let me know and I'll refresh your memory.

And I have no interest in wasting my energy twisting words, that's rabid feminist territory.

You cherry pick, on every thread there is underlying motivation in you to undermine women-you work with women because your brain is not compatible to work with men

that's why you hate women

now I am getting a clearer picture

you secretly hate women, but you're unable to form relationships with men, thus your disdain for yourself which projects as hatred for women

click to expand

Men are too immature. If anything I'm too serious to work in fields usually populated solely by men. Are you implying men are smarter than women?

And I cherry pick bc it's easy to pick on "privileged white men" so I get no satisfaction out of stating the obvious..

more men have mental and emotional issues than women

that's why most schizophrenics are males

and most who commit suicide are men too

At my current workplace, I'm indirectly dealing with fatalities (suicides mostly by men). Oh, humanity is failing all around. 😭

I don't think is a geographical thing, more a generational thing.

The amount of things a male can get away with nowadays, vs what was allowed in the 60s or 70s for example is incredible. The average youtubr would have been sent to a mental institution in the 60s.

That said males fully use their newfound freedom but does that make them actually happier? I'm not sure because having a bit of discipline can be beneficial sometimes. And this is valid for both males and females.

The thread is gone but her post is still in her history. This it?

"Deja tus pendejadas! You men run the world. You do what you want and ignore consequences. Control and dominance are your games. Yet when it's time to pay for your crazy, you have the craziest excuse. "society told us to not be emotional". Since when the hell do you listen to anyone? Don't try that crap. You always have sorry excuses for your behaviors. Again not all men. Have to say that before those who don't fit the shoes try to cry about pinched toes."

Much obliged my good sir. Now to put this word-twister in her place @LaMadrina

If there is no stigma around "being emotional" or reaching out for help as a male then why aren't more men doing it? Is it because we love bottling that shit up and contributing to a toxic culture of silence; or is it a result of conditioning?

Since you say men "always have sorry excuses when it's time to pay" you are really saying it's a conscious choice we make to suffer and not a part of the social conditioning we are all contributing to.

Ya, as a woman, it seems to me that it's men who give each other the most shit for being emotional. The other women I know don't mind, as long as they don't use it as an excuse to get guanoloco. And as long as they actually DO something (constructive) about it, don't just cry.

I think if I absolutely had to choose from the 2 extremes, I'd still prefer today. Suppressing emotions and forcibly fitting oneself into a mould seems bad for the physical health in the long run.

You more than most, obviously. Bipolar, schizophrenic delusion, apparent learning difficulties, questionable personal hygiene....and those are just the ones on the surface.

Can you post proof of your claim that @LadyNeptune "telling males to kill themselves, including description on how best to succeed with the task"? I can't picture @LadyNeptune doing this. I saw one screenshot that you posted by @LadyNeptune and it didn't back up your claim.

Some men express themselves beautifully and still maintain their masculinity. Women don't joke at such a man. Latin men are a great example of this.

Aren't latin men the dictionary definition of what constitutes a macho culture? And aren't macho cultures a breeding ground for misogyny? Latin men also carry the biggest Madonna/puta chip on their shoulders.

Ah yes they sure love women, don't they? They just hate PUTAS... which by definition is any woman who doesn't fit the image of their mother, or the virgin Mary.

I don't believe in social conditioning

So, first you say you never claimed social conditioning only applies to women, now you say you don't "believe" in social conditioning AT ALL?

Then you bring up the example of how latin men specifically have active tear channels but fail to see how conditioning applies to that very example, comparing one culture of men to another.

Let me know if I'm "twisting your words". 🙄

I don't believe in social conditioning because people dont follow the same set of social rules. I damn sure believe you choose to suffer. Who created these rules? Who created male ego? Man chooses his own path and suffering. 

Social conditioning is determined by biological factors, the basics of what it means to be the human animal. Why are cats independent and wolves pack animals? You think they just had a chat and decided on that. No, just as the Neanderthal didn't wake up one day and figure he needs to "fit in" with his tribe, or that he sure could use a male ego.

Social cues and cultural norms may vary from one culture to another, hence the variety in how the male cultures (in this case) may be slightly different across the globe (as in the case of your latin men),  but yet have more in common than not.

Yes must be it. Females, the great martyrs.

I don't think you are familiar with how depression works and how many fucks are given when in that state. Depression is by definition not the same as "feeling down".
