(I just want to put a tone disclaimer: I’m not being rude, I’m autistic and idk how to make this sound less blunt, but this is entirely sincere.)

The only times I’ve ever really seen people discuss these issues is as a “rebuttal” to feminist discussions. AKA “your issues don’t matter because men have issues too.”

It is inappropriate to make women’s rights discussions about men; but men’s issues matter too, I just rarely see them discussed outside of feminism. (Edit to clarify; I’m not trying to suggest that this all men, just that as this is all I’ve seen personally, it’s hard for me to get the full picture, hence me bringing the discussion to a male space.)

So I’m here because I really want to hear you; big or small, please tell me about the hardships you face or have faced in your life as a man, and what I can do as a woman to be a more supportive friend / family member / coworker to the men around me.
