What we're feeling.... Heaven forbid we show vulnerability

@SW-User Probably the number one thing.

@SW-User it's wired because I try to get guys to talk to me but they don't want to open up
@SW-User I beg to differ. I rather like openness in a man....

@Ewitsu That's bullshit. You wouldn't stand 2 minutes of a guy telling you the truth, and most guys would love to tell you just how shit they feel.

@Vivaci but it's not what we're taught through all the cultural stereotypes are that the men women want are the tough protective types who don't let feelings get in the way. Even the successful businessmen are essentially psychopaths. The driven no nonsense types they get the goal and the girl not the weedy guy who exposes that he's frightened or concerned.

My observation is that many women want a caring considerate man as the "father" figure to their kids but to actually make the kids they want a totally different kind of man.

@Ewitsu because we're repeatedly told to open up is weakness, it's weedy, we're told to "man up" that phrase alone says so much.
It's why suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45 by a big margin.
