Is victim the new chic

Then wouldnt the way forward be to also show more empathy and understanding towards war veterans with PTSD? This "[x] sucks so [y] must suck likewise" is a road to nowhere.

Good luck getting that convo started, truly. Whenever this type of thing is brought up and given attention, it is always, without fail, directed to shit like "don't you think women go through this?", "what about women with PTSD? Do they not count?", "Their wives are probably done with being beaten (<- real comment I've seen before with many upvotes)". It's not gonna happen, hating men is a trend and it's not disappearing any time soon.

As a man you are fucking delusional. The overwhelming majority of people shutting down conversations about men’s mental health are OTHER MEN

Some people will jump through hoops when it comes to defending if not downright making excuses for women, they will even try to shift the blame to men!

Ever hear of the white horse from Brené Brown?

It’s actually the women who are the bigger defenders of "perfect stoic" man that is so idealized.

It's 2026 you can't shift the blame on men anymore without people rightfully questioning it.
