We all have experiences that arouse the sympathy of others. Similarly, a discussion arose in an online forum when someone asked a question about the sympathetic experiences of the opposite sex. Some answers were obvious, while others were surprising. Here are some.
1. Period
It’s no surprise that this is first on the list. Women face many things, one of which is menstruation. The man explained that he had had digestive problems in the past and would occasionally feel pain in his lower abdomen, causing him to bend over and feel like crying. The pain made him even more sympathetic about women and periods.
Most of the replies share his feelings. It’s even worse that a woman has to go through an experience like this every month for over 20 years of her life.
2. “Alpha males don’t show their emotions.”
Men get angry when they are told or made to feel inferior by showing or expressing their emotions. It just brings them even closer and acts as if everything is great for them all the time. We all know it’s a myth.
There are so many things that happen in a person’s life for an individual to always be 100%. That’s unreal. Honestly, it’s healthier to express your emotions and let them out when you can’t take them anymore. The emotional standards expected of men are unrealistic, and women relate to that.
3. No deep pockets
It may seem funny, but why don’t women’s pants have as many pockets as men’s? As a woman, even if I wanted to put my phone in my pocket, most of the time it wasn’t. I can’t enter it.
4. Men who are ashamed of being human
One woman said, “It’s a shame that so many men feel like they can’t have an intimate relationship where they feel comfortable talking about their problems and feelings. I can’t imagine living life without close friendships, platonic.” Love keeps me sane.”
Some men may not relate to this, but most men say that when they want to have a deep conversation about something, being called a woman embarrasses them. Some may think that only women are allowed to discuss issues that affect them in depth. The truth is, there are women out there who would choose an expressive, outspoken man over an “alpha male” any day of the week.
5. Social pressure on women to be perfect
Society seems to dictate how women prefer to act and dress. The saddest part is that most of the criticism and hatred towards women who refuse to live up to the standards set for them comes from other women. These things are too trivial for people to make such a fuss about them. We have to get out of that mindset and do what feels right. Please enjoy!
6. Pregnancy and childbirth
One person said she read an article about childbirth and its effects on a woman’s body and was shocked by what she learned. The journey of motherhood is truly amazing, but it’s about more than just a cute baby bump and glowing skin.
7. When a man can’t take no for an answer
It can be exhausting to repeatedly explain that you’re not interested in that person or what they have to offer. It’s even worse if you have to do it in a friendly manner. Some men are at their worst when they accept “no” for an answer. For some reason they believe that if they continually badger attack the woman will change her mind. No, it’s not. In fact, it’s annoying and some men care enough to feel sorry for women about this.
8. Men who are judged as disgusting because they are kind to children
I get that some of us are creepy, and we have to be careful, but does that mean we should view all men who try to interact with children as suspicious? ? In this context, many comments show sympathy for men. Most men avoid children who are not related to them as much as possible to avoid problems. How sad!
9. Fear of being overwhelmed
There are reasons why women avoid staying out late at night or walking alone at night. It’s not because they can’t enjoy a night walk. It’s because of the overwhelming fear that remains within them. One commenter said: I’m sure there are examples of this with both men and women, but I’ve never once felt like a creepy woman in an awkward situation could overpower me and have her way. ”
In most cases, this is the reality for women. Always looking over their shoulder, double-checking, always on guard for some creepy one trying to take advantage of the fact that they’re alone.
10. Pregnancy test for women
Women are most often subjected to pregnancy tests without their consent. Imagine going to your doctor’s appointment and the doctor does a pregnancy test without asking you anything. Isn’t your consent important if, for whatever reason, a test needs to be carried out? Some people say that when they sign that they are not pregnant and there is no need to test, they always have a witness. He added that there is.
11. Short men are also kings
Some people feel sorry for men who are not of “standard” height. Because that’s a problem for some people. Some men are lucky enough to find women they don’t have problems with, but the majority are not. It’s actually not complicated. If you like tall men, that’s fine, but don’t disrespect shorter men or make them feel unattractive. Because some people prefer tall men.
12. Men’s clothing is expensive
If you want to know how expensive men’s clothes are, try shopping for clothes. A good suit needs an arm and a leg. I’m not saying that women’s clothing isn’t expensive, but men’s clothing is made from different fabrics. According to the poster, “Men’s clothing involves more tailoring. Women’s tops can literally cost $6 and be work-appropriate.”
13. Most men are touch deprived.
Most replies confirm that. It’s unusual for a man to experience something that most women consider normal. It’s no surprise that most people are surprised when a loved one does random nice things for them, even the smallest things, like a loving touch or a hug. Men go through a lot too, but sometimes a loving touch is enough.
14. Men are always expected to play the hero.
In addition to having unrealistic expectations of men, why do some women always expect them to be able to handle certain situations just because they’re a man? For example, consider horror movies and other movies. Who would throw to the wolves if they heard scary sounds at night? the man. One would think that because they are men, they would be immune to fear.
