(110,159 posts)this societal conditioning of what a boy/man is suppose to be. it is wrong. it is not healthy. it does not allow a man to be his authentic self. i can think of no greater wrong to do to another human being, to not allow him to be his authentic self.
i was on a thread last night about prostitutes. i was told, AGAIN, boys/men only want sex. they have no emotional connection in sex. women ONLY have emotional connection in sex. maybe if a man is married a very long time in a relationship, then there MIGHT me something more in the sex.
bullshit.
we continually play these manipulative games with out kids to keep them well defined in a warped role of gender. both genders. adn it DAMAGES both genders.
this is one result. a higher rate of suicide with boys. gee.... not hard to figure out.
