A Reddit question was put out asking men to name things they're sick of being judged for. Responses include non-manly hobbies like baking, or gardening, ordering a "girly drink" instead of a beer, and buying a sports car in your 50s.
Just one of the topics that came up on The Mike & Carla Morning Show this morning! According to a recent article from our friends at BuzzFeed, most men would just like to do things, no matter what they are and not be "shamed" for it!
If a guy in his 50s buys a sports car you immediately assume mid-life crisis, right? (No - we assume there is some serious over-compensating going on for not having something else. I'm kidding, of course. But are either one of those really a fair judgment? One man responded that he didn't have enough money to buy the car he always wanted until he got older. Makes total sense, so I suppose we should stop stop assuming, right?
Women are allowed to do so many things that they are not questioned for, but men are usually under more scrutiny. We can compliment one another - in very personal ways. Guys don't seem to have that privilege. Women can dance with one another. Men? Nope!
I'm not sure if it's other guys who are doing the judging, or if it's women doing it. As a woman, I hope not! Either way, men are tired of it. They'd like to be able to freely show emotion, be close to their parents, and not be made fun of if their hairline recedes - because they can't help it!
Some of the responses were actually very eye-opening. So maybe think twice before you start judging your man for knitting you a scarf, or planting petunias! So, check out the segment from this morning featuring "A Few Things We Thing You Should Know" and then scroll down to see what some men are talking about when it comes to being "judged"!

Sadly, many men grew up in environments where this wasn’t ok. But in adulthood, they very much want - and need - help working through things they don't have the tools to understand, or do it alone.
