Screenshot of a Tumblr post by nongunktional:
when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue
to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence
At the risk of oversimplifying this issue, I feel it's important to make a distinction between "men who are desperate for sex" (if that were all it was, it would be a VERY easy problem to fix), and men who expect to have someone constantly by their side who is available to have sex whenever they want while not having or expressing any needs of their own. Because that's simply not how relationships work. There's a ton of men who think like that regardless of conservative tradwife rabbit holes, and they need to snap out of their little fantasy world.
