But maybe you could still pretend I am a strong man every once in a while anyway? As a treat?
no... oh... okay...

Normalize feeling like a man as somebody who is given space to feel anything beyond anger or shame. A man needs to feel like he can talk about things on his mind at any given time, to anybody he trusts. A man is somebody who can cry when he is hurting, and it be okay; that he won’t be labeled as weak or a coward.

I mean it’s right there in the quote. They want to feel like a man. They don’t actually want to be one.

I hate dealing with some types of men, it's exhausting.

Why does he want to feel like Man? Is he stupid?

What's wrong with wanting to feel like a man? There's nothing inherently negative about that. I like providing for my wife and I want nothing in return. I like doing typical man stuff with my friends. Why does that make you feel like I'm trying to be superior to anyone? I am comfortable in my masculinity and so should anyone who wants to be, stop treating that as toxic.
