    This is awful on so many levels. 1) Suggests men haven't always valued friendship. My father has had his best friend for 67 years now.https://twitter.com/rebecca_roache/status/918761793757106176 …

        2) Suggests women have the right to 100% of their partners emotional confidence & that it's suspicious if men sometimes want to talk to men.

        Even tho women are understood to want to talk things through with women & it's a huge red flag if a man resents his gf's female friends.

        In fact, this is one of the signs of an abusive partner - trying to isolate their partner from their friends.

        Course, it doesn't advocate that but 'this will ruin your relationship' is strong motivation is accepted as true.

        And it's not true. One of the best indicators of good partner potential is if the person has long-term, cherished, supportive friendships.

        For some reason, young men sometimes message me & ask how to find a gf who will treat them well even tho I am no relationship counsellor.

        I point this out but recommend choosing a girl who has close, longstanding, supportive, friendships.This is also the basis for relationships

        Same is true for men. If he has a friend whose welfare he cares abt & for whom he would drop everything & go to if needed, it bodes well.

        Actually the lack of real male friendship is a big problem weve been having for a while. Male spaces have been diminished to a sorry state.

        Used to be military, colleges, mens clubs were a pretty good place to find friends. Much less likely to happen today.

        Wow, sounds nothing like any men I know. If millennial types do behave like that, times have certainly changed and perhaps for the better

        This constant narrative suggesting there's something inherently wrong in being male is tiresome.
