Hey it sure beats talking to a non-dude about . . . y’know . . feelings. Like that’s ever gonna happen.

Sure, next thing you’ll want to convince us the objects of lust are human women with their own thoughts, physiology, and preferences. RIGHT!

They'll talk to a non-dude about feelings. Their feelings. In fact, they'll do that instead of seeing a therapist.

I mean, I hear women complain about how men use them as a substitute for therapy, so I assume that they aren't just talking about how awesome they are.

While I'm sure that's true, an actual therapist has training to prevent and overcome the kind of bullshit men no doubt wallow in with their amateur versions.
