I understand that today is #InternationalMensDay. Some have encouraged men to talk about their mental health. Let me talk about mine. You can do any psychoanalysis you want. I don’t care. I just want to vent as a man.
As a man, I am likely to die before a woman of the same age. I can’t complain though. I think I got a good deal biologically. No bodily changes each month. No need to enhance my hair, eye lashes, eye brows, ears, lips, nails, etc. I can just shower, brush my hair, use a moisturiser and go!
I think that my life is a life of sacrifice. I have to protect and provide. I don’t mind that but it can be hard sometimes. I can’t complain though. I think it’s harder having to give birth, nurturing a family, and still be expected to provide as well. And to still have to protect my man from harm, including his inclination for self harm.
Sometimes, I don’t want to talk. I would like some time to think and plan. That I am not talking doesn’t mean there is anything wrong. It doesn’t mean there’s any issue between us. I just crave some silence.
As a man, I solve problems by thinking, not by talking it over with anyone. That I want some time to myself doesn’t mean I am not blissfully happy in your presence or that I want to be with another woman or to hang with boys. It’s just me and my brain.
However, I have been told that that doesn’t work in a relationship. I can’t complain though. After all, it’s not only me. I have to accommodate the fact that my woman may prefer to solve problems by talking them through. I hear that the approach of talking through problems is the better approach. It doesn’t work for me though. I would rather analyse the issue and think through a clear path to a solution BEFORE I talk about it.
It is not that I want to exclude my woman. I just want to deal with the issue the best way I know how. I feel that by the time I come to talk about it, I should have a plan. I believe that having a plan will reassure my woman. I don’t want to go into a discussion of the problem without at least the makings of a plan.
I actually never feel under-appreciated. I don’t feel
the need for any appreciation. I have a duty to do and I just do it. I can’t complain. It’s not a competition. If it were, I would lose every time because her job is harder than mine. However, there is blood flowing through my own veins too.
With financial and career success, my needs have actually become very few. Just love, food, alcohol, sex and peace. However, I must accept that my spouse may want more. Like more talk. More romance. More show of affection. I must try harder.
I feel incredibly lucky. I can’t imagine changing my surname and taking another person’s surname. Some even take the surname AND first name ( like Mariam Joe-Abah). Why? 🤷🏽♂️ I can’t imagine leaving my church or religion to take on my spouse’s. I won’t do that for anybody. I also won’t have spent all day at work and come back home to cook for anybody. Not even for myself! So, I can’t complain.
I know that no one is coming to save me. It’s me against the world. I am expected to always be the bigger person. After all, I must never be caught “behaving like a woman.” However, do not be surprised if I say No sometimes. Don’t be surprised if I am sometimes stubborn just for the sake of it, even when there is no apparent benefit from that stubbornness. Don’t be confused about the fact that I am not afraid of death or scared of any living being.
Finally, I am
Incredibly lucky to have the love of a good woman. I am a man. That is who I am. Everything I’ve said is not me complaining. I actually feel incredibly privileged and you don’t know how content I am. Still, today is a good day to celebrate me. When I’m dead, it won’t matter to me anymore.
Happy #InternationalMensDay to all men out there.
End of rant! 😂
