'Treating Men Like 4-Year-Olds'

Submitted by Mastodon on Tue, 2012-06-19 17:43

Article here. Excerpt:

'I've always said that it's a generally fantastic experience to be a man in our culture. This is because, in comparison to women, we men get way more room to be ourselves or do what is most comfortable for us. One of the areas in life where men are most coddled is in how we are permitted to emotionally express ourselves.

Specifically, I am talking about the excuses that women make for men who lack emotional follow-through. For me, emotional follow-through is about the capability to completely and clearly express emotions or emotional responsibilities -- whether that means someone apologizing in a heartfelt way, expressing affection, etc. I'm not talking about extraordinary expressions of emotion; rather, I am addressing the most basic forms of emotional follow-through like, "I love you" and "I'm sorry."'

Glad he's being challenged in his male-bashing.

because women rarely don't care how men feel.

There was woman in the history of the world who cared how men felt. That was Mother Teresa. And she's considered a saint.

(Okay, I'm being sarcastic, but there's a point being made._
