Men Are Sharing All The False “Myths” About Manhood They Hate (24 Male Myths)

11. TV Dads

It’s getting better now, but back in the day basically every guy on TV was a sports-obsessed, car/motorcycle loving, beer swilling moron who couldn’t function without his wife to look after him and the kids.

My wife went away last week for work and I’ll have you know that only half my kids got eaten by wolves. —UYScutiPuffJr

     

12. Mental Health

This whole “be a man” schtick that leads guys to internalize their problems and marinate in their own issues and neglect their mental health drives me nuts.

It took me a long time to find female friends just so id feel comfortable talking about my depression and get advice on how to get the help I need. If i did not, I would without a doubt be dead right now.

I stamp this thinking out wherever I can find it. It was almost the death of me. —Simbaata

13. Strip Clubs

I like nude women, I like nude women dancing, but strip clubs have no appeal to me because it’s an illusion that you can have that woman. She’s appearing interested in order to make money, which I have nothing against, but it doesn’t do anything for me. —ScareCrow6971

14. Fruity Cocktails

I really hate how fruity drinks are associated with women, like damn can I just enjoy my strawberry daiquiri. —fsutech

15. Being Discerning

That we would have sex with anything that has a heartbeat. 100% untrue, ive had sex with inanimate objects too. —OceanWidePuddleDeep

16. Fear

That we are not afraid of walking alone through a dark car park at night. After a great deal of asking every one from police, to self defense instructors, to a green beret and a bunch of combat vets, to the most cracked out gun nuts. Not met a single person who had no fear. —Mostlyaverageish

17. Cheating

That men find it normal to cheat and brag about it. —istealpixels

18. Maturity

We are less mature then women, no exceptions —cheesecraft789

19. Body Issues

That only women suffer from negative body sterotyping. Really? REALLY? I grew up in the 80s. Have not seen He-Man? Schwartzenegger, Fabio, Jason Momoa…—varthalon

20. Regular Thoughts

When women ask “what are you thinking about?”, and you reply with “nothing”, we actually are thinking about nothing. Wife never believed me until a family counselor brought it up. Made her realize I wasn’t the only one doing it. Or what we’re actually thinking about is so trivial and kinda stupid, the second we’re interrupted with the question, we immediately forget what it was. That or we just done feel like sharing if we do remember because it is kinda dumb. —KoJoDo77
