Witches VS Patriarchy

As s a man, I can absolutely say that men are hugely emotional.

Sadly we are mainly taught to bottle the emotions up and never show anything vulnerable.

The whole crap about never crying it insane, especially making it about manliness is fucking dumb.

Crying is amazing, it is...

• ...a pressure relief for excess emotional energy.
• ...a fantastic way to gather strength, just let the tears roll and you can power through huge problems

Back in 2022 I got double flat feet, double heel spurs and a bad knee, all at the same time.

Every step I took was agony, I cried from the pain the entire way walking home from busstop while blasting power metal in my headphones.

I dealt with this for eight months or so before I got better, I ate hundreds of paracetamol pills during that time to deal with the pain.

Crying was one of the best tools to deal with the pain when the painkillers didn't work.

Crying also helps with dealing with emotional episodes, it clears your mind and once done you are better equipped with the other crap is going on.

TL;DR:

Men are just as emotional as women, we have just trained ourselves to be way worse at dealing with our emotions than women are.
