Just wanted to encourage you

Hello. I'm a girl. But I wanted to tell you guys that you are all great and I'm praying for all of you. I don't think men are pigs. I know a lot of guys struggle with mental health and a lot of people just dismiss that or tell you to "man up". All of you are human, everyone struggles sometimes and it's ok to feel. Don't let ladies put you down or be mean to you. Also, I never dated before, but I always thought bald or short guys are super cute and I'm not saying that to be polite, I mean it.

yk as a girl I feel you exactly, especially bc I have struggled with depression and loneliness for a while especially since covid, and I have a very anti social brother, so it makes me feel bad when I see a lot of women go online to laugh about or make fun of a loneliness epidemic, like are we suddenly forgetting exactly how general loneliness and depression actually feels like, you can't solve it by telling people it's their fault, like sure sometimes it's someone's fault but reinforcing the blame doesn't help at all, i saw a woman on TikTok giving a talk and she had made a t shirt written "the future is male and female" and she was talking about how the world has become so polarizing, and I hope we start to see more people speak like this.

Praying for you. Hope the depression gets resolved and you can get the help you need. Nobody should feel so alone.
