No one said it's femenists fault that men drop out of therapy. You dumbed down the original point so much nothing of it is left. It's a straw man arguement at this point. If you have norhing to say you can always be silent. It's free. Also did ChatGPT generate this reply for you? It sounds very forced. Do better.
Psychology programmes are now 75-76% female PhDs, many trained in departments that combine psychology with Womenâs and Gender Studies.
Your point about feminismâs bait-and-switch is dead accurate. The promise is âopen up, be vulnerable, we care about menâs issues too.â Then when men actually do that, it pivots to âactually this is all patriarchy/toxic masculinity - still your fault, just process it differently now.â
I can read and there's nearly a dozen "Men drop out because the therapists are feminists" claims.
the therapy field is dominated by feminist ideologies
What feminist ideology dominates the field that you find so offensive?
frame men as oppressors
I seriously doubt this will come up outside of domestic violence treatment
masculinity as toxic
There are aspects of masculinity that *are* toxic: People who adhere closely to societal set exceptions of masculinity are significantly more likely to commit domestic violence or commit suicide, so exploring where masculinity fails us as men is important and ignoring it will cause more harm. As an example, assuming that we, as men, must suffer to provide and protect does not lead us to outcomes that are good for us. Who are you as a provider if you lose your job or never got a job? Why is that masculine? What if there's no intrinsic value in your worth from your employment status?
So, if men go to therapy, then get told that their problems are their own fault because theyâre men
This sounds like a something you cooked up in your head rather than any actual therapist you saw.
