Because there's a ton of pressure in being a man, particularly a young man. And you're made to feel and quite honestly are treated as inferior if you can't handle that pressure.

Add some depression on top of that and you've got a ticking time bomb

I agree that "toxic masculinity" is a problem, but the thing is, it is a problem that is also perpetrated by women and how they view men. Try going on a date and telling a girl you're unemployed and see how far that gets you. While men reinforce these norms as well, I'd say that it hurts guys most when they hear it from women.

unironically it's because of the patriarchy

ever heard the phrase "be a man" before?

usually that means put yourself through shitty situations and don't show any emotion.

Feminism FTW

been there man :/

Ehhh, not really. I'm all for pointing out the disadvantages that women suffer but women DO have some societal advantages that men don't really have. Like what people have already pointed out that women have way bigger and way better support circles, generally speaking.

I was intending to come off as sarcastic. I feel it is pretty clear that the higher suicide rate indicates that men don't have all of the advantages.

When Women try to commit suicide a lot of times they are just attempts at attention - hence, not real suicide attempts.

When Men try to commit suicide...they are actually intending to kill themselves.

I remember reading a news story about the alarming male suicide rates in NZ, and what needed to be done.

It amazed me that even in that context, the image they used to highlight the situation was a stock image of a woman looking distressed.

It was a hard video to watch. Its probably one of the worse suicides Ive seen. I only bothered to watch it because eventually, some edgy loser would spam it somewhere I would see it. Might as well just get it over with.

I wish Ronnie McNutt had sought help as well. Suicide is not the answer to anyones problems. Speaking from my own experience throughout the years, people can recover or at least learn how to effectively cope. Life wont be perfect nor will it ever be. I became much better after my ordeal yet I still have real bad days. This past week was a nightmare where all I could think about was suicide but Im slowly regaining my footing again. Its a never ending battle for people like me but I truly think its better than being dead.

Hopefully, McNutt has found peace.

wow.

this is why this is happening to men. Dude, women enforce this shit too.

again, read a previous post I made here: go to a high school, conduct a social experiment where a dude cries after watching slightly sad movies or cries when a bully confronted him. Make him wear pink, suck at sports and talk about his feelings. Then let me know how his dating life goes and how his female classmates respect him.

Toxic masculinity is a terrible thing. And some people have become so brainwashed by it, that they think admitting it exists is to admit that men are bad. Thats not it at all. Men and women can both play a role in toxic masculinity; The term refers to the gender of the victim, not the perpetrator.

turns out being a man is an isolating, lonely experience
I was reading an article of a FtM transgendered man, and he came to this same conclusion. Said that when he lived life as a woman, he noticed that people were generally more willing to listen to and help with his problems. When he transitioned to becoming a man, he noticed a SHARP decrease in people's willingness to listen or help. By both men and women. In his own words, he described it as you described it, being a much more isolating and lonely experience.

Women's expectations for men to always be strong, stoic, and a provider has stripped a lot of emotional safety nets for men in society. Toxic masculinity is just simping with another step. Bros want to project how tough they are to attract women and delude themselves.

Men.

These are just facts. Just because you're a man doesn't mean you need to take offense to it.

Most women do have expectations, but even saying they're unwilling to date an unemployed man isn't even a part of 'toxic masculinity' because very few people are willing to begin dating who's unemployed, period.

you know what? Yes its men, women are pure and innocent and men just like to torture themselves. Men men men, men men manly men men

But the only reason why the male suicide rate is even higher is because they use more lethal methods. Women actually attempt suicide more.

please @Politics enlighten me why the wage gap topic, the #metoo movement, maternity leave, catcalling, womens reproductive rights, positive/realistic female body beauty standards and female objectification are topics that will help prevent male suicide, please, this will be funny.

why those topics? Those are 90%+ of the topics feminism deals with

Shit's hilarious man

The reality is women are in fact more likely to be supportive of a not-so-strong man than men. It doesn't mean there are no men on Earth that don't exhibit toxic masculine traits

Yes, there are women in existence that look down on those men. They're still not as prevalent as men who do the same are, sorry.

not-so-strong men huh?

not adhering to the standard you call toxic masculinity makes someone weak, got it

dude, one of the MAIN points of 4th wave feminism which started last decade was to put more focus on how the patriarchy hurts men. Get woke bro, our women friends care about us too.

feminism in practice is all about womens issues.

not because women are bad or dont care about us, but because the purpose of the movement is to fight for women. And its right, if they dont do it, nobody will.

its like BLM is about black issues, or green peace is about the environment.

btw when men bring up mens issues its usually feminists who put the brakes to that and call those men MRAs and incels
