“but I was born this way” doesn’t work if you’re masculine I guess.

How come I can't use my white male privilege to make this nonsense go away. Did I forget to send in my membership dues?

“Traditional masculinity is a social construct.” Try telling that to a stag or a lion.

[jhess]

We actually need more masculinity not less

FEMINISM- Is the POSION - First it consumed the woman, now it's after MAN .

[pralayajin-woo]

Wouldn’t femininity be the same in their own logic

Rightwingers, centrists, conservatives, libertarians, it would be best if you have a son to NOT send him to see psychologists and therapy. Just don't unless you want your son to be brainwashed.

Great, so now if men need mental health help they have to verify with their psychologist on whether they are pro masculinity or not. And if they don’t ask their mental health is going to be made worse if they got the wrong psychologist.

So when is feminism going to be called out as a mentail disorder

[grizzlymanverneteil]

Wait wait wait, being masculine as a male is a choice, but being masculine as a female is not a choice and makes them men?

[rosannecoffman]

The Psychological Association is a very bizarre social construct.

A story will be coming out on how all the counselors got their asses kicked lol.

This isn’t insanity this is all part of the plan

"Traditional masculinity" is why the human race still exists today instead of being killed off by predators hundreds of millennia ago.

I'm sorry as a woman I prefer men to be masculine. Meaning strong physically, spiritually and mentally fit. The liberal thinking trying to shame men into becoming weak beings will self destruct. As far as I'm concerned Real men ROCK!

[freesaxon]

The statement " what next" is no longer enough. If normal people don't start to rise up against all this we are lost

Allowing people who publically express their bigotted HATE of MEN to have access to their health care is criminal, and they need to be held CRIMINALLY responsible.

children have to be on guard against this stuff, parents be vigilant

From APA guide:
"Although boys and men, as a group, tend to hold privilege and
power based on gender, they also demonstrate disproportionate rates of receiving harsh
discipline (e.g., suspension and expulsion), academic challenges (e.g., dropping out of
high school, particularly among African American and Latino boys), mental health issues
(e.g., completed suicide), physical health problems (e.g., cardiovascular problems), public
health concerns (e.g., violence, substance abuse, incarceration, and early mortality), and
a wide variety of other quality-of-life issues"...

Attempting to fix things that are not broken is a sterile and very confusing endeavour.
