    Your response is a perfect example of how the mental health of men is constantly shit on. Just because women have it hard(er) doesn’t mean that men can’t suffer too.

    Toxic masculinity and “alpha” culture is a blight upon humanity and it’s scarring young boys who often have no real role models in their lives. Media is constantly blasting them with negativity and there’s no one in their lives to explain it or counter it.

    Your argument is that because women have it hard men need to shut up and deal with it. You’re just as much a problem as people like your electronics instructor. Too short-sighted and focused on your own myopic world view that you don’t care about anyone who isn’t like you.

    Shame on you.

      Your argument is a perfect example of men feeling attacked when a woman tries to correct them.

      Forgot the whole part where I pointed out the many, many examples of male role models out there.

        Wow. You had to ‘correct’ me. The hubris is insane.

        As to your ‘list’ of rolemodels:

        • batman - rich orphan with serious mental issues who beats people up

        • superman - fictional character, but at least a decent person

        • presidents, prime ministers - Have you seen our leaders? They’re some of the worst people in the world

        • princes, emperors - hereditary rulers who have historically abused their power in unhealthy and evil ways

        • business leaders - Really? They’re worse than our elected politicians

        • most of hollywood directors - only role models for people who want to be directors

        • most doctors - What? Are doctors all figures of virtue and no one told me?

        • a million male authors writing about the male perspective - And there are no women authors out there doing the same?

        • There are women alive today who are legally not allowed to go anywhere alone. - And that sucks. It’s a cultural issue reinforced by poor male leadership that is systemic exactly what I’m trying to point out.

        • Jesus Christ - fictional but requires checking out your common sense and reason

        At this point I can’t tell if you’re trolling or not. I’m getting “All Lives Matter” flashbacks having to read your posts.
