What an interesting group

I like that a space is being created for men to talk to one another...like really talk. I've found it very difficult to maintain quality friendships with especially heterosexual men due to the whole, "That's gay" (which everything usually violates some kind of masculinity code they go by) thing. Usually I find it much easier to open up with either gay men or womxn. I'm hoping to see more in society men that not only think it's okay to express themselves but do so irl versus just talk about it. And it's sad because I can see how much men in general really need someone to talk to/listen to them/provide emotional support, but they are hung up on looking manly, whatever that means.

Yeah...like friendship between men is on a whole nother' level in other countries. I even see this in t.v. shows, which I know don't always represent things the most accurately. It does, however, lend some support to what I've heard. The US isn't alone in this regard though.

It's very effective to get men isolated and scared of one another. That way men are more malleable to control and manipulation. I am a single dad and get frustrated with how dads are portrayed in the media as being stupid, then I realize it all serves a purpose. Since that 18-34 year old demographic is so powerful with advertisers, it helps to discredit any other purchasing influencers on that group. So advertising knows best and dad's a shit, and the isolation continues.

The level of emasculation of husbands within advertising is ridiculous. I realize they must adhere to tropes in order to save time on exposition, but why this one specifically?

I've always looked for men I can talk to. it is very difficult to find people willing to talk. Listen and speak. Nudism provided me with that. I have found, even if little, men in nudism willing to dialogue.
