Men will talk to a chatbot instead of going to therapy
Now flip that around and anytime you see or a hear a woman saying her man isn't emotionally available, just tell her he isn't your therapist.
... Do you see how this kind of framing is wildly unproductive, when either side engages in it?
I can't believe I'm going to have to explain this, but it's a meme reference: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/instead-of-going-to-therapy
Yeah, memes, common jokes, can be employed for unhelpful purposes, in unhelpful ways.
You are basically saying 'its just a joke bro!' when its clear that a lot of people, in general, and here in this thread, are tired of this joke, as it is dismissive and reductive.
