RE: Why Should We, As Men , Suppress Our Emotions?
I have lived both sides in society because I am transgender and let me tell you something...it's not true that women suffer more than men though they do get more attention to their issues. I thought I would speak of the struggle of women to other people upon transitioning, but knowing what I know now after having experienced some of it for myself I find it more urgent to address the problems of men specifically because they are very hard to see for the untrained eye. I know what it is like to live in a 3rd world country as a woman and if I could I would choose that over the same country as a man, seriously, this is really bad. I get criticized a lot because people tend to think that if I am speaking pro-men I am speaing against women, which makes no sense at all.
This is much of the reason why I am here on steemit, I am one of the few people who can actually draw a comparison.
Excellent article!
If you don't compain then you are cold and insensitive, if you complain verbally you are a pussy and need to man up, and if you complain physically then you are aggresive and possibly violent. There is no win!
