Would more men be open to going to therapy if they had resources tailored specifically for them, and if the office had Emotional Support Animals for appointment use?

That was my intention with plugging The Will to Change, it’s definitely not a “here’s why men suck” piece, it’s a feminist analysis on all of the unique harms that men are subjected to under patriarchy, how those manifest, and how to heal from them. Any analysis of the suffering of men under patriarchy that lands on individual responsibility as a cause for psychological suffering is a bad one.
Sure, but that patriarchy has been around for a long time and this wave of despair is new. You could probably solve some problems that way, but it’s not the solution to the big problem we’re facing here.
Rising inequality and alienation are the problems.
