If boys are taught that discussing feelings is okay, they will be much more balanced adults & the risk of suicide will be reduced greatly. We can always improve ourselves and sometimes that involves some discomfort but we owe it to ourselves. It would be truly great if we stopped following the trends of USA & UK and established our own. We are a great country that has a reputation of being a safe place. Let's make it safe for everyone.

B/S the Pub was a fine way of bonding with lots of blokes if you had issues, I seen that plenty of times in the 70's to the 90's it was what mates were all about.
