So ugly. On the one hand, we want men to be more emotionally expressive and tender. On the other, we can't imagine that a man could genuinely feel grief at the unwanted loss of an embryo like women can & must just mock his tears, call him names & insist it can only be misogyny.https://twitter.com/plathalogical/status/982948622110199808 …

I feel strongly about this because someone I love still grieves for his lost potential child and remembers her birthday although he respected his ex-girlfriend's right to make that choice after they split up. I lost two embryos I thought of as babies so I know that grief is real

Replying to @HPluckrose
Respecting her decision is the key issue here, it doesn't look like the tweet refers to a man being sad over the loss of a potential child, but over the entitlement of another person's body.

It would be so easy to say that rather than mock male tears and call them gargoyles who feel entitled to women's bodies if they shed them.
