Default Males in the media, society and life

In my opinion I feel like males get portrayed wrongly and unfairly in society saying that males have to be confident, tough , strong, the boss, act like they are the hard man and be cocky.

Me being a male myself I would not say I’m a confident person or athletic , I’d say I’m Someone who has feelings and I get shy and vulnerable

I also feel like with women they get tons of support for opening up about their feelings and they would always have someone to talk to

Where as with males they get laughed at or get told to man up or if someone is straight but don’t like doing things that are considered too ladish they get considered gay or weird and a freak plus I feel like there is very little support and help for guys about opening their feelings

Plus I feel that the media make males come across wrong by being portrayed as cheaters, aggressive etc but from my experience women are just as bad there is no in between they are as bad as each other however I do also find a lot of good males and females out there to

Do others on here agree? And what is your opinion on this?

I’m not saying men are never in the wrong for things I just feel women get more support and advice when it comes to being insecure and vulnerable where as guys don’t get the same amount of support which I think is wrong everyone should get the same amount of support and advice

There is all the support a man would need out there...they just don't chose to take it...and perhaps that's down to what you describe in your op.

I find people who change thier favourites are more honest and don't blindly support someone just cause they picked them at the start...you be you pal x

Owoaje. I totally agree with you.

Its a crying shame that men feel they have to be 'strong' whereas sometimes it takes more strength to actually open up and talk to someone.

There ain't a single person you've convinced with that lie Nicky. Not a single one.
