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
I can’t speak for everyone, but I assume it’s the condescending and presumptive “advice.” Oh yeah, just try doing that thing you already do, it’s worked well for the last 30 years.
I mean I’m not gonna give andrew tate or Jordan “The Lobster” Peterson the time of day, but it sure would be nice if there were more leftwingers acknowledging the difficulty of forming relationships instead of just saying “maybe be nice to women???”
