Express Your Pain, Don’t Die In Silence – Pretty Mike Tells Men, Combats The Men-Who-Speak-Out-Are-Weak Culture

Lagos socialite Pretty Mike has waged a war against the perspective that men who speak out, expressing their pains and hurts are weak, as he motivated men to share how they feel and let out their pains.
In all honesty, men have overtime been made to look like people who are never meant to be seen crying or breaking down but strong, tough, being mature, never feeling pain, never being hurt, never could be abused, never could be cheated on never caught expressing hurt or pain.

Taking to Instagram, Pretty Mike, in a lengthy post, bemoaned how a man cannot express his hurt without being tagged talkative or immature, asking how the society will know how many men have been abused, hurt or cheated on in a relationship and still stay. “Na wa ooh…. This our society where a man can’t express his hurt without being tagged a talkative or an immature man, how do u expect to know how many of us that have been hurt, abused and cheated on and yet stayed in a relationship? Yes I’ve seen a couple of instances where the woman cheats and the Guy stays”, he began.

Contrary to women getting sympathy when they speak up about the issues they are facing, Pretty Mike said men only get mockery from their male friends. “The fact that our ego, as men wouldn’t let us come out and cry about our women cheating on us doesn’t mean it never happened……. Often time, the ladies gain sympathy when Dey share their stories with their friends, on the other hand, if a man shares such stories with his male friends he gains Mockery\"?\"”, he added.\"ExpressGoing further, Pretty Mike added that a lot of men are dying in silence as it is hard to get things in their favour when they speak, unlike ladies for whom statements like men are scum, would be made. “Lastly, it’s easier for women to go online and cry foul and the response would always be in their favor; the usual “men are scum” phrase would surface, but if a man ever comes out, world people will say “He talks too much\"?\", Abeg alot of guys are currently dying in silence”, he said.
