    Can relate, my dad sees ‘going to the doctor’ as a personal weakness und thus rarely goes.

      Many if not most men are like this. It’s usually their wives or another woman in their lives that drags them in when something is about to fall off. It’s another way in which husbands leave 71% of a household’s ‘mental load’ on their wives, down to their own well being.

        So that’s why I accomplish nothing and only have 29% well-being is I don’t have a wife to do it for me…

        side note haven’t been to the doctors in years and last time I went it’s cause my girlfriend made me… at the same time, I’m the reason she could find her car keys, so fair trade, I guess…

      That’s a whole part of my cynical conservative upbringing that I have to consciously work against.

      You can’t do the obvious thing you’re SUPPOSED to do. What are you, some kind of sucker and/or [gay slur]?
