There is nothing masculine about therapy. Therapy is a fundamentally feminine pursuit. Men don't deal with personal issues by talking about them. We do it through action, even if what we do has nothing to do with the problem. Work stress? Play vidya and shoot some NPCs. Relationship stress? Go camping with your dog for a weekend and leave the bitch at home. Someone died? Go drinking with your friends and stop thinking about it for a while. Women perceive these things as "avoidance behaviour" and "not dealing with the problem." They don't understand that men need to shut their emotions off for a while in order to get perspective.
Women see callousness and bluntness in the same vein. Like when my grandfather died a couple of years ago, and as expected whenever the date rolls around my now ex would get all emotional, then call me callous or unemotional because I wouldnt join the pity party.
Having the perspective and understanding that they're dead, means you can be sad, without being an emotional wreck once a year. Same applies to a lot of things right down to "avoidant" behaviour of going camping or working on something.
They've mistakenly taught themselves that men have to "fix" everything which isn't true. We have to fix everything... IF we can. But first we assess.
My dad died when I was twelve. I cried for a week or two as a boy, and then I was done crying and it was over. I'm a man now and I don't get sad about his death. I don't even think about it unless my mother asks me to come visit his grave. What's done is done. I felt sorrow at the time, but that time passed and we have to get over what happened instead of feeling sorry for ourselves. Once we accept what happened, what is there to be emotional about?
It's not normal for a man to be emotional. Women think it should be because that is their nature. If a man is solid, they think he must be "avoiding his true feelings", like putting on an act to appear strong. Except we don't need to "appear strong". It's a fact of life for us if we aren't betas.
