    Of course men have it hard, so do women. I think most feminists will not deny that.

    Men have difficulties too. They may rule society, but everybody has problems!

    Not quite sure what her point is.

    The reason why men don't voice feelings ain't because of women. And the reason why quiet men can end up ignored is just one of those things- men will go for a quiet woman as she's possibly an easier catch.

    Interesting, but nowt new.

    Me neither, looks like a stab at feminism... Ya know, don't complain because you get touched up by men when working behind a bar, they have it hard too.

    It's partly to do with women...a highly emotional man who cries openly, gets upset easily will put off a lot of women...vulnerability in man generally isn't seen an attractive quality...whereas a man is instinctually drawn to vulnerability in the opposite sex...it's evolutionary.

    It's a statement of fact, so i don't quite see why he was banned...

    He wasn't banned for that comment. He was banned because he's a permanently banned ex-poster (and one with serious fucking issues by the looks of it) who keeps returning time after time and trolling about.

    Is it?

    Maybe you're attracted to vulnerable women, but not all men are. Most guys I know like confidence in a woman, confidence is seen as sexy.

    And a lot of women don't like macho hard ass emotional men, a lot of us like the ones who you can cuddle with and talk about something other than farting and football.

    And to be fair, I think anybody who gets upset and cries that easily has baggage. A lot of people who aren't co-dependent don't tnd to want that.

    Vulnerability is attractive to a lot of men. It's protective instinct clearly rooted in evolution. Confidence in a woman is also good. Female confidence = good sex and also serves evolutionary purpose.

    Being a "macho hard ass" doesn't preclude an emotional side too you know. A balance can be struck.
