    Stereotypes, get your stereotypes, fresh gender stereotypes right here.

    Men who don’t marry are gay and woman are always mad at each other over nothing.

      Also it’s not manly to share your life with a friend apparently.

      I’m 40+ and a couple of months ago started therapy. I didn’t even knew I needed therapy, went with my wife for couple therapy and it quickly turned into personal therapy.

      What I learned after some tests is that I fall into the top 4% of men who are emotional closed off. This is pretty extreme, but maybe the worst part is, I never even knew. This is the stereotype we teach boys, men don’t have emotions, they don’t talk about emotions, etc.
