    It’s insane, I even made a complaint to the director who of course is a woman, and she effectively denied that it was happening or could happen.

    I told her I don’t even want people not to think these things, everybody who is in their own place of trauma has to get their shit off their chest.

    All I wanted was a place where men didn’t have to hear this crap.

    And that’s being incredibly neutral in my opinion because there are a lot of opportunities for men to talk about just how insane and shitty women can be. But I don’t want to talk about those things, I just want them to stop shit talking men especially their own clientele.

      Pushing any sort of socio-political agenda on people who desperately need help should be grounds for losing your license to operate. If someone was having a mental health crisis and the people who were supposed to help them instead tried to convince them that women have it worse, I could see it pushing that person over the edge into committing suicide. That sounds so incredibly invalidating and possibly malicious.

        This is a ridiculous comment. If you can’t handle the way your actions affect others than get out. If you think you know how to “heal” better than nurses then go do it yourself

          “I am depressed.”

          “Have you considered that women have it worse?”

          Is the type of mental health care you are okay with?

              I mean, that’s essentially what OC said his coworkers were doing. Not those exact words, sure, but summarization =/= strawman.

                And the bigots can’t stand to understand that their actions need to be consitered and they aren’t the end all be all of the world? If sexists don’t like the service then they aren’t under any obligation to use it

                  Lol what? It’s a health facility, not a fucking Walmart. You don’t have to be a bigot to not want your feelings invalidated by a misandrist counselor.

                    I quite frankly don’t give a shit what some sexist thinks. Don’t use it if they are just so bothered

      putting out the fire of gender inequality with oil

      its interesting how when people are a majority they dont see the irony in their actions.
