Screenshot of a Tumblr post by nongunktional:
when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue
to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence
If it's misandrist to tell the Trump voters who modeled their personalities on empty victory declaration and hurting brown people, then I'm a proud misandrist. Men who suck don't deserve to get laid. No one deserves sex.

Frankly my positioning on men and feminism is also received negatively on lemmy world. Everyone's all about extending compassion and sympathy to men as subjects in an attempt to control them. Someone suggested we 'redefine strength.' To me strength cannot be redefined: you can only accept that many men are lonely because of their own choices and do, in fact, need to man up.
It isn't easy, you know? It's whether you get it or you don't. Being fit and reliable is hard to some people.
