Screenshot of a Tumblr post by nongunktional:
when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue
to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence
When did I accuse you of lying? I think you may be misunderstanding the original post, and the social implementations of a more reclusive generation butting against traditional social norms. However, id hardly say that's an accusation of lying.
Then how does your situation apply to the original claim, and why do you think you belong in the "male loneliness epidemic"?
Who made that claim? You interpreted that based on the original post.....but if you have friends, why do you consider yourself lonely?
Being friends with people is a relationship........ The only thing anyone can logically conclude based on the framework of this post is that your self identification of belonging to the epidemic revolves around sex.
Okay, so you have plenty of friends, even with girls. But you are still identifying as being part of the male loneliness epidemic because of......? What exactly?
