“Being told to ‘man up’ when scared, upset, or anxious — even when I was a kid.”
"They ask how I'm doing, and they wanna hear about all of the stuff that I'm actively doing — but they don't wanna hear that I'm dealing with some emotional stuff.""I'm a stay-at-home dad. I don't know how to put it simply or what the right term is, but I have been semi-frequently harassed, berated, and otherwise made to look foolish or feel ashamed because I'm a man who loves his babies.
At the doctor doing checkups/shots? Random people saying I either don't know what I'm talking about, that I just think my son is special, that I can't be trusted to give info on their health because I'm not their mom, and that I 'need to tell my wife that....'The part that really sucks is that my friends make fun of me for it, or when an argument happens, they throw it in my face that I don't have a job and therefore am not a real man.
Just the status quo of a man must work to death and a woman is the only one fit to stay home grinds my gears. I know how to change a diaper. Yes, I'm happy. Yes, it was MY choice to stay home. No, I don't mind not getting to f*** off with my friends all the time. Yes, I know how to deal with children's medical issues — and no, I wouldn't trade it for the world."
