These kinds of things are a touch frustrating. Society seems to love parkouring between "Man up" and "Show vulnerabilities" and if you pick the wrong option the other side makes passive aggressive remarks or lose all respect for you.
Male privilege or something.
I think those are two mostly entirely seperate parts of society.
In my experience anyone that does either of the above does both when its convenient for them
Unfortunately not really. I've had a few exes that would play both sides of that. It's an unfortunate truth that a person can hold two opposing view points at the same time and not realize they aren't compatible. And when you point it out they tend to forget that the views don't work after a few hours.
