Read on. Very good article for Men:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/men/active/mens-health/11425655/Why-do-so-many-middle-aged-men-feel-so-lost.html

Was reading it this morning, and found out how true it is. I don't know how many would agree, but I feel Men are now fast becoming outdated in the sense that even though they have started to catch up to the household chores and becoming an equal participant, it is them that are more emotions prone, without even showing it. The very degree of 'masculinity' is making it harder and harder to open up, to shed a tear or two at times, and to find a circle of true camaraderie among the ilk.

How many of you have close friends to its truest sense? How many of you are burdened with taking care of A-Z of the family, with an expectation of being 100% perfect?

Anyhow! You can draw your own conclusions. Liked this write-up so thought to share.

This is getting routine. It is just another man hating article that is a current theme in media.

Men in the west are smartening up. They have realised that they have been sold the wrong bill-of-goods and are revolting.

The younger ones(Gen y and the millennials) are much more aware of the reality and refuse to work in the plantation. This makes feminists/women mad, while at the same time it makes the traditional conservatives jittery.

Hence, all these panic articles.

Desi men, on the other hand are blue-pilled morons. Gen-X in India unfortunately appears to be a lost generation.

Suicides and depression happen at every stage and in both sexes ... How you over come them is subjective to to one's financial and emotional behavior.

I recall & cite 2 well known ones who divorced , re married and moved on to their success .... Aamir Khan & Saif Ali Khan ... don't know what happened to their ex spouses.

Life changes are we grow up and we need to evolve with it ... I have forgotten my hobbies of yester decades because .... there are new things now & I need time for them ...

Read some where recently --- as we age , our no. of close friends decline and for seniors there are very few people whom they can call to be close friends...

Life changes and so must you.

For eg: In canada, our desi men come home frm work and hv ready made food served by their wife and go on laptop and read Bollywood news and times of India as if they are doing great favour by going to job and earning bread and butter for their families. :) I read somewhere that mother takes care of a child
and hands over adult child to
women in marriage. i shall search the article later and post the link. adhi Zindagi maa ka palu Pakadkar chalo aur adhi biwi ka. :(



The article and discussion is more about Men, than the gender wars. Not one gender is holier than thou these days. So, let's discuss objectively, and refrain from a tirade towards men, in general. That's the point of this thread - at least what I understood.

But, as I mentioned, you are free to draw your own conclusions.

Off-topic, but unwarranted for sure.
