Do guys have feelings...??!?!

I guess you have a point tbh media is an influence and some women can be really emotional but I was just asking not initiating an argument I sincerely apologise if you felt I was trying to portray women as the most appropriate emotional example.

word



we feel hungry right? I guess that's a feeling

They do but some of them! In today's world, media have messed them up

just to clarify...I am not trying to be judgemental but...
I DID SAY every guy I come across and that's fewer than majority...
yes I did mean a romantic sense as an example but....many boys I am friends with do not really care about their surrounding I mean it seems like nothing evokes beneath the surface of their heart...
and I am just wondering if they do this to act tough or they really are this tough..
what do you think...
feel free to correct me please as this is not an argument this is just a girl trying to understand...

media ??!?!!? how ??!??!

"us" sounds more fitting.

honestly I apologise if I sound rude but every boy I've come across is for emotionally detached...or OVER ambitious...
I mean do they even love....or is it just attraction for the time being....

nope! its them didn't mess me up plus its about males so talking about them in particular

If you actually think females aren't effected by media then you're ignorant.

feel like you think that because i dont know where i mentioned that

If you actually think females aren't effected by media then you're ignorant.

Females are affected by media in terms of body image amongst other things The media doesn't target female emotions it doesn't tell us how to feel whereas the media does target male emotion.

Ok so I couldn't help but join in.

When I was younger I used to think that all guys were emotionally insensitive, but in my experience (especially with romantic relationships) men tend to be more vulnerable to "infatuation" and are often more emotionally invested than women.

The issue arises from social pressures on men to not show emotions and for them to only care about physical needs (women also expect them to act like this). In reality the stereotypes are false: There are women who prioritize sexuality over romantic emotions and there are men who do the opposite.

Since society has educated men to be less sharing with their emotions than women, often this leaves them less equipped to deal with emotional stress (which may be why men are very likely to suffer from depression)

lol feelings ive been dead inside for years

Fair enough. Well, a lot of guys are mentally strong, a lot of guys are not. In general, I'd guess that many will try to some extent to give the appearance of being so, whether they are or not, as they think it is more socially desirable. This is not to say half of guys are actively cultivating a different personality, they just might simply downplay certain emotional reactions they have beneath the surface (there are many who are perfectly comfortable not doing this as well, people are different)

Some will try and lessen their reactions on the outside not to hid themselves in any way but to feel better on the inside - contrary to popular belief, "letting it all out" is not always the best thing, or at least not for guys. When I was a kid up until maybe 12 or so I would cry every day. I'd cry publicly. I was so annoying lol. All this did was feed my negative feelings more. Now, I do my best to stifle strong emotional reactions. And it makes me more relaxed, relatively speaking. For instance, guys are in the main insanely competitive and I am probably moreso than average. Losing games can fill me with an almost comical level of rage. But if I just stand there, and let nothing out, and let it wash over me, I calm down. If I just lost it, I wouldn't be letting anything out, it'd just build up more and more.

However, there are cases where this mechanism can be destructive. Indeed this is not unique to men at all, it's a human thing. Sometimes, in the direst times, emotions really can't be pent up. I think even the strongest of guys will find themselves needing to cry and succumbing to it in the darkest times - close family deaths and the like. In general, I think it is felt that men showing negative/"weak" emotion is fine, under the right circumstances, but these circumstances are pretty limited.

This was all waffle and didn't really answer you but oh well

we all have feelings until some girl breaks their heart
