The way society traditionally defines strength is essentially “don’t feel your emotions and don’t express your feelings because it’s weak.” It’s only socially acceptable for men to be stoic and angry. Men aren’t allowed to have feelings or experiences that aren’t masculine (toxically masculine). Therefore, men do not feel safe enough to seek out mental health help and struggle alone.

Don’t count your chickens, as they say, even though this is a relatively-new arena of people. Case in point: the carnivore diet. Who’s posting pics of their all-steak meals? Smiling, well-built men, of course, who feel the only emotion that real men feel: hunger. That’s because, when dudes are hungry, they eat dead stuff and become more badass. That badassness makes them hungry to work out, drink beer, and get laid. That’s the circle of life, bro. You see, the reason for that is because men were made to eat meat, not like you women who eat stuff like fruit and vegetables and whatnot. That nutrition crap is as fake as spray-on dirt on a brand new Jeep.
