First petition I've ever signed. The issue is of utmost importance.
No we don't. What we need to do is stop suppressing men which starts from a very young age. Men in life need to compete in an equal playing field and to be rewarded and recognised for their incredible achievements. The benefits of that to any society are beyond measure. Masculinity is the greatest force this planet has witnessed. Men build this world and all the comforts and safety nets that everyone enjoys. Men are simply awesome.
For me this is a preposterous perspective (sorry) on being a man in today's society. I can only think this is due to the echo chambers you chose to listen to but this bares no resemblance to my 56 years of being a man. I have never ever felt suppressed in my manhood and would argue for most of my life I have had a far better playing field than most women. In terms of rewards I have had many and usually more than women in my life.
I don't consume shouty YouTubers talking about their view of women's/mens roles, to coerce simpletons or worse, the unstable and immature. I also don't consume round tables of young people demonstrating their immaturity whilst believing they have life nailed. I am fully aware of both, but it isn't a reflection on life and sadly leads stupid/immature people to conclude stupid/immature things and why most of my generation treat it with the derision is deserves. Andrew Tate isn't an example of being in control, just an example of manipulation to create money. The man is a walking contradiction and he knows it.
I have a strong friend network, people I grew up with I chat to daily. Many of them I can talk to about anything as they can with me. I have done it often as I have with many female friends and professionals. I don't fear asking for help because I am 100% comfortable in my skin and have never ever felt oppressed by society or the opposite sex. When I was young it was a journey but frankly I grew up. I have zero interest in how 'society' judges me or how I appear to people who don't matter. I think if people spent less time on worrying about their image to others it would be a good starting point to a better life.
Having said that, mens mental health is a real challenge and is, I think, often passed over as 'toughen up' but that is for the man to deal with because there are many places that can help. However if your mindset is one of being oppressed by the opposite sex I think that is at best misguided or worse case an excuse for your own failing (general point not aimed at anyone here).
Women can be hard work....but so can men. We are different and we bring different things and that is what makes it great and why most of us are attracted to the other sex. I suspect if we removed the navel gazing of social media many men would feel better. It is fair to say men are often the bread earners and when the tap turns off that can cause massive issues for men. We feel a responsibility to support our family and that does bring pressures, that I will absolutely agree with, but much of what we believe to be a problem is bought on by mindset often.
Never fear seeking help and never fear talking to your best friends. If you feel the need, rest assured they will at some point. Those who sneer and laugh when expressing ourselves at moments of vulnerability are those hiding the biggest issues.
