Thanks to Covid and the demise of patriarchy, men’s mental health has got its due share of attention. Men are now portrayed as more expressive and less stubborn. All’s fine as long as it’s not just another attempt at amplifying gender parity. I always felt women were stronger than men, emotionally and professionally speaking. I guess it’s not just OK, but mandatory for men to cry when they feel the desperate…
