    He found the very worst way to describe a real problem. The whole premise is that men are not trained or used to experience human emotion in any meaningful way, which is 100 % correct, and which is also what he has been explicitly told by his GF. And after starting with what seems like all the correct information he arrives at the conclusion that his GF is cattle. It is of course disappointing, but also almost impressive in how wrong it is.

      Reads to me like heavy cope that makes his patriarchy-addled brain let him express affection. I’m not allowing myself to be vulnerable around my girlfriend? Must mean I love her less.

        Yeah, but the tragic thing is he seems to grasp the basic issue, The problem really is him being unable to emotionally connect to anyone, and that comes across in what he writes. And then he arrives at this conclusion.
