I am cishet all that but I am not like... a regular dude you know? I don't think the general hexbear user is really representing any kind of particular population of people.

That being said I have a friend I will smoke and talk about stuff with sometimes. Which I think is a classic form of it. From what I have read the general population of males use their female partners for emotional labor. I do have a friend who I think really only likes spending time with me because he can be emotionally open with me and he doesn't really have people in his life he can do that with. He is pretty chill though
