I know plenty of men who talk about their feelings, and they're surrounded by friends who love them well. Seems like a skill issue to me.

    I think a lot of societies don't do enough to teach men about how to communicate and how to communicate feelings.

    Part of it might also be men internalizing this notion that they can't discuss feelings and treating other men with that same standard.

    I mean, I get it, it's harder for men than women. The change needs to start with individual men though, not with society.
