Why, as a male, when emotionally do I only feel accepted by women but not by men?

Edit2: It's a subjective perception I'm talking about. Are you offended? Why?
What's the matter, why can't men deal with me being sensitive and emotional? Is it because they struggle with me reminding them of having, too, emotions?
Edit: Do men think I'm weak when I show emotions? If so, why?? Why do women see it as a sign of strength when men are vulnerable, but men don't seem to get it? Are they/are we dumb??
You're viewing a single thread.
Pretty much that.
Because on the whole, boys are never taught to deal with any emotion but anger. All others must be suppressed lest you look weak...
To listen to another man express painful emotions means they may have to acknowledge that they are not masters of the universe and perfect, stoic gods in every way and in every aspect of their lives.
It takes real courage to allow yourself to be emotionally vulnerable around others and the vast majority of man are never able to to this with anyone but their partners (and will never admit that that they have) and most not even then.

This is really helpful to hear
Glad to hear it helped.

None of us are perfect, none of us have all the answers and none of us have control over this random, erratic world we live in.
Who's downvoting this lol
The same people who can't listen to men having emotions.
