This reply is basically saying that men do it to themselves by taking on that kind of responsibility in their lives.

Heterosexual men have no one else to blame but other heterosexual men for their plight.

I've watched so many men, including here on OKP, paint emotions as negative and 'feminine' then have the nerve to be upset when others don't acknowledge that you as a man have feelings too, the same feelings you belittled other people for having.

Nope, I don't have sympathy for what Ebro is saying. So many men want to show how much of a man they are and can be by not emoting.
Don't get mad at everyone else when that facade of masculine armor gets tiring.
