Men do not have as many safe spaces and communities to share their thoughts and feelings with other men like we do. And when it comes to interacting with women I am sure some men feel left out as times have changed. For the most part, women are no longer excited to be in the presence of a man, so we do not welcome them to barge into our conversations and spaces to “mansplain” anything to us as if we are idiots.
Sure, there are podcasts where men trauma bond with other men on their problems with women and their fantastical expectations of us, but this is a very superficial way to bond.
