Despite my one moment of sheer misandry, which I apologize for…I love you guys ❤️

I probably can’t offer much in the way of comfort…

NSFW, TMI

…I mean, all I can offer is my body, and I doubt you’d want that :P…

…but I really, truly, honestly appreciate all of you guys. Really 💜

Without men, my life would be pretty boring and honestly pointless. And I don’t just mean for sexual reasons…

NSFW, TMI

…well, the sexual reasons are a big and important part of it too, ngl, but they’re not the only reason.

I see and appreciate you. You matter 🩷
To me. To your families. To everyone here ❤️

This isn’t much comfort, but if any of you guys needs someone to talk to, my Matrix account is:
@horny_miisha:chat.blahaj.zone
Feel free to reach out!

You’re not alone. You’re never alone. I love you guys 💜

    I really appreciate the message.

    However, I usually associate misplaced apostrophes with folk who express far crueler sentiments.

    There’s no way to get this fixed, is there?

    Happy to see this, honestly. I feel this doesn’t get discussed enough! It’s also just hard talking about difficult things if you’ve never done it when you’re young, even if you know you can talk about them now

    Sorry for making a complete U-turn but what’s the cropped off text if I may ask? I’m just really, very curious

      Yes. This does not get talked about nearly enough. And it’s a real shame, with the real and terrible real-world consequences that has…

      Sorry for making a complete U-turn but what’s the cropped off text if I may ask?

      Honestly no clue, so sorry 😭
      I don’t have the OG, cause I’m just a dumbass like that. So, yeah. Sorry :P

    I got over my depression and trauma and live mostly happily now with friends and family around me.

    There were times when I were prepared to end it all.

    I’m glad I didn’t because the fight in the end was worth it and I wish that everyone gets to see the light at end of the tunnel like I did.

    Never stop fighting, giving up is not an option.

    Those silhouettes lead me to disagree.
    I was gonna downvote this for botting but it seems to be an actual human… or an AI.

    Nice post 👍

    turning 29 imminently… after a lifetime of depression and suicidal ideation, I had multiple life altering tragedies within the same week at age 25. i decided then that if i made it to 30 and still maintained no hope whatsoever for my future and the world’s future, it was time to go. I don’t want to die but life is so miserable. It’s like being on fire.

      I was going to do it at 10,000 days of life, had a bullet with that date scratched on it. That day came and went. I have found no new meaning to life, but am still here.

        Honestly that counts. And the meaning of life is different for everyone but can just be living and occasionally being in someone else’s

      Famously, the first major legal win for feminism was a man getting custody of his child.

      Its sad that so many men have swallowed the propaganda that feminism is somehow hurting them.

        Patriarchy absolutely hurts men as well and I don’t want to take away from your comment. I fully support it. And I fully support men revolting against the patriarchy and living how they want to live without the pressure to conform.

        The first major legal win for feminism was about a mother being granted custody because before 1839, fathers were automatically granted custody of their children.

        The Custody of Infants Act of 1839 is often seen as the first feminist legislative victory in a long campaign to reform English marriage laws (Shanley 17, Chase and Levenson 40). While legal scholars have noted instances when a father’s total control over his legitimate children had been limited by judicial rulings prior to 1839 (Abramowicz 1345), the 1839 Act stands as the first major reform to recognize the rights of mothers. The important role played by Caroline Norton in the passage of the Act is also key to recognizing the law as a feminist triumph (Shanley 17).

        Prior to the 1839 Custody of Infants Act, a father had a right to his legitimate children and was automatically granted custody if he and his wife separated for any reason (Bailey 393). Most fathers granted custody or access to the children’s mothers because it was considered ungentlemanly to deny mothers the opportunity to be with their children. Judges could also require a father to grant access or custody to the mother in circumstances in which the children’s welfare would be in jeopardy if they were left with their father. (Bailey 394)

    Thank you for your kindness 🙏🙏 on average, men go their entire lives without a single compliment and are expected to silently carry burdens and never show a moment of sensitivity or “weakness”.
