In a 2018 Times opinion essay 'The Boys Are Not All Right,' American actor, comedian, and writer Michael Ian Black wrote: "The past 50 years have redefined what it means to be female in America. Girls today are told that they can do anything, be anyone. They've absorbed the message: They're outperforming boys in school at every level. But it isn't just about performance. To be a girl today is to be the beneficiary of decades of conversation about the complexities of womanhood, its many forms and expressions."

"Boys, though, have been left behind. No commensurate movement has emerged to help them navigate toward a full expression of their gender. It's no longer enough to 'be a man' — we no longer even know what that means."

Also, surveys from around the world find that males everywhere are reluctant to talk about their mental health and are far more likely to die by suicide than females.

Interested in the everyday implications of this, Reddit user Workdncsheets posted a question on the platform, asking "What are some things that are normal to men but mind-blowing to women?" and it immediately went viral. Here are some of the most popular replies among the 2.8K comments they've received.

30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men I'm 39. I started down an entirely new career path in mid-January. I've had horrible imposter syndrome since day 1 but the new job feels good. My boss (who happens to be a woman) sent me the nicest most complimentary email thanking me for being such a good addition to the team and I sincerely cried because in all my years in the workforce nobody has ever appreciated me so much. I imagine to her it was just one of those things a good boss does - "hey, my employee did a good job, I should tell them!" I sent it to my dad when he asked me how the new job was going. Even HE cried out of pride. Men don't get compliments, and when we do, we really feel it.

Men don't get compliments. I can remember the last time I got an unsolicited compliment on my looks. I remember it clear as day. I was 6 years old. I'm 40 now.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men The first time my wife showered with me she stops and says “it’s moving! Are you doing that? Why is it moving?” That was when I realized, if you don’t have a dong, you don’t know that they can move around as your testicles move, nor do you know that testicles move around all the time on their own. Particularly in an environment where the temperature is getting either hot or cold, like a shower. Balls move and balls itch. It’s what they do. And d***s have a mind of their own. Don’t ask me why it’s hard, I’ve been asking it that since I hit puberty.

    This is sadly true. I've always been good with kids. I love mine. I just feel mega awkward and judged if I interact in public with them. Had moms give me a hard time when I am at the playground with my son even.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men Men just naturally have a level of strength that surprises women. Testosterone is a hell of a d**g.

    For example: my wife has been going to the gym for a while now. She's noticeably stronger now and it's awesome for her. I actually commented and complimented it the other night. But me, a dumpy 45 year old man whose exercise is walking and carrying groceries, I'm still stronger than her just because I'm a guy.

    Also we're not always ready to pop a rod at the drop of a hat. We're not actually ready for intimate relations 100% of the time. I had a girlfriend who took it very personally and would get angry when I simply wasn't in the mood. It felt very demeaning to me.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men My friends who I haven't seen in YEARS went camping with me recently for four days. I got back and my wife asked me what's been going on in their lives. I pondered and said that I don't really know beyond some got married at some point, one had a kid but I don't know when, and that we mainly talked random stuff. One night we had ended up making a tier list of dipping sauces over three hours.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men The expectation to help in certain situations, especially as a big guy.

    I went to retirement party for a person I never met before (invited by a friend). Literally minutes after I showed up, some random lady came up to me and *told* me to come with her because she needed something carried somewhere.

    After I helped the woman above, I remember my (female) friend was kinda surprised that this woman just demanded I help her, without knowing who I was at all. I don't mind helping. On some level it's nice (?) knowing that I look strong enough to help people do things they physically can't. But this happens ALL. THE. TIME. Which also surprised her.

    I can't count the number of times I have helped women in stores reach things because I am tall. Just the other day in the grocery store a woman said "excuse me...". I looked and just said "the blue one?". She was surprised that I did not mind helping. Lady. You would not believe how many times I have done this.

    As a man, I noticed that women can be...... sensitive..... about roasting. They take it very personal. So I don't roast them. Then they complain that I am different with them than with my male friends. So I roast them, then they get all offended and tell me to not be so personal. I think women are doing it to unbalance men, and I will die on this hill

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men The complete f*****g mystery that is flirting.


    The anxiety of approaching someone you're interested in and making the first move. Straight women act like it's nothing but I have known Bi women who get as anxious as any man who approaches a woman.


    Getting kicked in the balls.


    Knowing that when you shake hands with another man that when he squeezes your hand he is sizing you up. Deciding whether or not he could take you in a fight.


    Understanding that being told "be yourself" is the equivalent for women of "he'll like you for your personality".


    If you see a woman, let's say at work, openly crying she may be having anything from a tough day to having suffered a serious personal loss. Where as if you see a man doing this at work he's probably 6 minutes from s*****e. Not having the freedom to cry is so worked into the concept of manhood that most men can't even when they want to.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men Mainly mind blowing to my wife.
    When something in the house breaks, needs repairing, repainting, generally attended to. I don't have an automatic man signal straight to my brain that tells me what to do.
    I have to go away, watch YouTube videos, read methods, roam around B&Q for a solution. It takes failed attempts and roaming around the offending situation cursing to myself when no one around untill I either fix it. Or call another male via form of payment to fix it because I'm out of my depth.
    My wife is under the impression her role is to identify something is wrong and just hand it to me because I will "know what to do".

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men Going a long period of time without sex or a relationship. For some reason, women think it's easy for men to find someone. They think there is someone out there that would do it or we can just pull women at will.

    Since I was very young I've always believed that women could get a man any time they wanted to (Jealous? Yes). I know it's not true, but it astonishes me to learn that some women would think the opposite, like this suggests.

    This and not being able to cry keep coming up and it's really hurting my heart! Just, if you're reading this, the next person you see, say something nice to them, regardless of their gender. Let's just make compliments for all the norm!

    I know about this, as a man- because - as a kid, I was the puniest one in class. And yeah, random big kids would lurk around and attack. I discovered only in college- when I grew into what all would perceive as a "big guy" - that I no long had to tend the same fears. It was a considerable relief. And women really never get that relief. Some comprehension is in order.

    My ex-wife was so flabbergasted one time when she met two friends of mine, one of which I only knew his first name — the other, only his nickname. She thought I was lying because I knew them for over a decade. Their actual names never came up and weren’t necessary.

    30 Things That Are Unimaginable For Women, Yet Are Absolutely Normal For Men The concept of being alone seems different for women than men.

    I was telling this girl about how I went through a period where I didnt talk to anyone but coworkers for about a year and she couldn't fully grasp the concept. Like to her being alone was when you only get a few facebooks messages and your friends are all too busy to hang out for a few weeks.

    A huge spectrum for individuals of all genders here; doubt there's a basic gender difference.

    At least for the women in my life, doing something stupid for the sake of being stupid. I know it’s stupid. It doesn’t make me a stupid person (depending on what it is). I’m taking a calculated risk for fun.

    Urinals. I have, on more than one occasion, had to explain that no if we have to go number 1 and number 2 we don't first use the urinal and then the stall. We just go to the stall and do them both at the same time.

    Didn't know this was a misconception. Urinal is only a time and water saver of only one

    Maybe for this person, but lots of women complain about carrying the whole emotional weight in their relationship or family.

    I can't relate to this. I have never in my life had no thoughts whatsoever. is it a peaceful feeling? Is it relaxing? I'm so curious.

    Yeah, but- there are often transactions to navigate even there these days. Learned a good trick a few years back!! Dinner with another guy, we're doing business- the kind where it's common for one to pay for dinner for the other. But not defined as to who-which. We're negotiating - both waving credit cards at the amused server- I really want to pay; but he - just grabs my card, and removes it! One card now in the air, server smiles and takes it away - and I've been one-upped. In a friendly fashion - but - he won. Good ol' "Fait accompli" - no recourse.

    A physical fight is not the end of all future interactions, it is an establishment of hierarchy, a message of "we both wont just back down in the face of conflict" and depending on the outcome proof that both can hold their ground and violence is actually no useful way to resolve conflictin the future.

    Which all in all can lead to greater friendship.

    People, keep your damn hands to yourself. Yes, even the ladies/women/girls. Don't hit men, don't hit anyone. Same to men. Let's just at least try, maybe?
