It’s weird how people always reduce the male loneliness situation down to sex only while they blatantly ignore all of the other necessary human needs that come from relationships.

Anytime a guy brings up loneliness, I’ve noticed people instantly make it out like he’s specifically and only referring to sex. I’ve even noticed this in research papers lol, where they’ll be doing studies on male loneliness and the only indicator they look for is sex. FYI there are plenty of lonely dudes that can get sex if they want but they opt out because they’re looking for something more.

It bugs me because that’s only part of what they’re missing out on but it’s like the whole world is hyper focused on just that one part. “Oh he’s a man, he can’t feel the need for a hug or to eat dinner with someone” Lol.

Sometimes it feels like the world is just more robotic than it used to be and other times its almost like people reduce male loneliness down to sex just so they can demonize them. “Oh look, here comes another horny pig, complaining because he can’t get his dick wet”.

These men used to be little boys, and now that they’re adults that may be struggling, they have nobody get a hug from when they want a hug and nobody to eat dinner with when they get home from work, nobody to share an adventure with. That’s like half of what relationships are about and it’s always excluded when male loneliness gets brought up.

    Men are lonely because they want their mama. They need their mama.

    And maybe girlfriend or wife shouldn’t be their mama
    But someone out there should be allowed to hold them tenderly, feed them snacks, tuck them in for a rest in a comfy place.

    This should be normalized.

    They should be allowed to long for this and receive it.

    Reminds me of that ftm trans dude who was crying about being “just another guy” on YouTube. Also that woman who pretended to be a guy, wrote a book about it and then commited suicide….
