Men crying

Uncomfortable innit? And embarrassing if it's you. I've spent most of today with my eyes inexplicably welled up, trying to force the tears back in. My son turned 9 yesterday so it's probably something to do with that. Working from home thankfully, so no witnesses.

    Nowt wrong with men crying.  If more men addressed their feelings and emotions instead of being told to 'man up' we wouldn't have such a Problem with male suicide rates. Instead they bottle it up

    The recognising bit is the problem. If you dont recognise it, then that's when the bottle can explode.

  • Boys Don't Cry, according to The Cure and Frankie Valli then Fergie said Big Girls Don't Cry. Real men, however, do cry, which is why Spider doesn't.

Size of her plates...

I'd be checking her for an Adam's apple, or a cock.

We’ve ALL had worse than that. In my case much much worse

I suspect the one dead on the couch is more likely to be you than mrs Zico 😁

Bloody hell who's that?

Get my heart racing late at night with pictures like that! Better pop off for a cold shower.

Are you taking the piss right now? 

Anyway, men crying..

 

Speaking to someone today and they spoke about something which seems to common. They mentioned that their Dad used to be in the pub from 6pm till 10pm every night, drinking away and escaping the world. 

I know this doesn't happen now, so could this escapism be the reason why so many blokes are commiting suicide? Did the evening at the pub work in a way that blokes could talk and be themselves to other half pissed blokes?

Personally i reckon that we are trying to take too much on and there is something there in that our brains simply cannot cope with the amount of shit we deal with day to day.

Drugs and social media have a lot to answer for

Social media is one of those things that I wish could be un-invented. I spend a lot of time on facebook and a lot of work etc comes through it, but it's too predominant. People show their best lives through it and it's away from the harsh realities. 

Increased communication has led to a development of "now" culture. Businesses need profit yesterday which leads to increased pressure and workload on staff resulting in a poorer work/life balance etc. Work that was previously undertaken by several people is now done by just one. 

I’d wheelbarrow it around the house, she’s got a decent Nicky Hunt on her if you ask me.

Getting back to the crying bit.  I was at the dentist today and it seems I’m grinding my knashers whilst asleep, I’ve got a guard to put in at night.   Apparently it’s got very common now during this pandemic, mad isn’t it.   I explained I’m not married so not a clue why I’d be stressed, Wanderers are winning, alls well.
