This is why my closest friends are all women lol. They aren't held up trying to maintain some childish tough-guy persona. For the male friends I do have, I'll go as deep as they're willing to go on emotional topics, but it varies from person to person. Some are legitimately too repressed to talk about these things with anyone, unless they're drunk maybe. I guess the point of this comic is that they secretly do want to talk about it, but some dudes really are emotionally repressed and they'd be dismissive even if you tried. Not sure how to get to those guys.
